#Gate13周年 #我与Gate的故事 Thirteen Years Together: From the First Airdrop to Infinite Possibilities
June 26, 2024, an ordinary yet destined-to-be-memorable day. That day, a few tokens suddenly appeared in my account, making me pause for several seconds—those were the airdrops I received after participating in my first Launchpool new project.
Not a large amount, perhaps not even worth mentioning, but the joy of being recognized and rewarded still warms my heart when I think about it.
In more than seven years at Gate, I have witnessed the platform grow from a young, inexperienced exchange into a comprehensive digital asset platform covering spot trading, derivatives, financial management, and Web3 wallets.
And I myself, from initially just a novice who could only buy and sell simply, gradually learned to use the Spare Coins to earn interest, tried periodic financial locking for fixed returns, and occasionally paid attention to new projects on Launchpool.
That preference for steady returns has long been ingrained in my trading habits.
This year, Gate celebrated its 13th anniversary. Seeing the theme "Your Gateway to iWeb3," I couldn’t help but recall that afternoon when I received the airdrop.
Back then, I might not have fully understood what "Web3" meant, but Gate showed me with tangible rewards: participation brings gains.
Now, the anniversary celebration is even richer—early bird boarding plans, WCTC global trading competitions, quiz lotteries with a million prize pool…
Thirteen time capsules waiting to be collected, each effort could bring surprises.
This makes me think that the platform’s deepest moat has never been technology or capital, but every ordinary user like you and me who is willing to believe, try, and stay.
Thirteen years, for a platform, is about accumulation and transformation; for us users, it’s a growth trajectory connected by countless "firsts."
From the first airdropped tokens to diversified asset allocation today, Gate has accompanied me along this path, and I have witnessed every step it took.
The next thirteen years, the story continues.
And I will still choose to be here, waiting for the next moment that makes my heart race.
