Corrections

The guide to registering on Gate and joining a first launch still described the old Startup flow: a spot-balance threshold for free airdrops, then a draw. In February 2025 Gate moved GT-holder airdrops to HODLer Airdrop, and the old Startup address now redirects there. Holding at least 1 GT is enough to join, rewards follow your average holding over the project, there is no draw, and distribution happens within 1 hour after the project ends. The title, the route overview, steps 3 to 5 and the FAQ were rewritten from Gate's HODLer Airdrop FAQ, its help-centre guide and the migration announcement.

How to join a launch (formerly "How to join a Startup"), the complete guide to Gate launches, free airdrop zone vs subscription zone, how VIP allocation works, whether a subscription that didn't fill is refunded (formerly "Didn't win a Startup"), whether non-VIPs can join, whether launches make money, the GT complete guide, the VIP fee table, how to buy GT, how much GT reaches VIP1, how to turn on GT fee deduction, what to do when KYC fails, how to spot new listings, and the allocation estimator all treated Startup as a live section: free airdrops by draw, a spot-asset threshold, and shares scaled by VIP level² × 10. Gate's help centre no longer has a Startup category and the old address redirects to HODLer Airdrop, which splits by average GT holding with no draw; paid subscriptions run through Launchpad. These pages now describe the current products, and the old Startup formula and draw rules stay only as history, labelled as such. The estimator's calculation is unchanged. Their titles, and the wording of links to them from other pages on this site, now use the current names too. The refund article now gives the timing from Gate's Launchpad FAQ: the filled amount is deducted, and the unfilled part refunded, within 4 hours after the subscription ends. Two "I've seen…" lines in the article on whether launches make money were rewritten as general patterns.

Boxes and a few intros in more than ten articles were written as though an editor had personally gone through KYC, subscriptions, staking or stockpiling GT, and learned from the losses. The site has no record of those actions, so the claims shouldn't have been there. They now read as notes based on Gate's published rules, or as this site's stated preference; conclusions and risk warnings are unchanged.

Removed the homepage's external invite entry and invite links from low-intent pages, along with unsupported "no extra cost / fixed benefit" assurances. Startup allocation caps, entry-asset thresholds and the VIP1 holding threshold are no longer presented as site-wide fixed figures: official material differs by time or activity, so readers must use the current activity page or signed-in account page.

A pre-launch edit replaced an early single VIP1 figure with a third-party range to avoid a hard threshold. The 2026-07-20 review found that the range likewise lacked evidence proving it applied to the current account and region. It has now been removed from articles and tools; readers are directed to the signed-in account page.

A pre-launch edit added a historical cap figure to the Startup allocation formula. The 2026-07-20 review found inconsistent cap values across official material, so the site now removes a universal number. The tool illustrates only "level² × 10" and states that the current round may add its own cap.

Removed a falsely precise "tested credited at a specific time on a specific date" line from an early draft, replacing it with a flow description without a timestamp. This matches our principle: share genuine feel, but never invent "first-hand data" that looks precise yet can't be verified.
