Gate, ranked 4th globally for futures exchanges by CoinMarketCap, now also has a DEX exchange. Currently, if you trade on GateDEX through the link below, you can receive a $50\%$ trading fee cashback (payback). Furthermore, when trading futures on DEX, you can use up to 125x maximum leverage, just like on a CEX exchange.
Naturally, futures trading also automatically grants a $50\%$ cashback.
How to Use GateDEX Exchange (Web3/Wallet)
Clicking the button below will automatically pay back $50\%$ of the trading fees to your personal wallet.
Please check if REVERDEX is written as shown above.
Clicking 'Join Now' will lead you to a screen to download the Gate App or to scan a QR code. Alternatively, for those using other wallets, it allows you to connect to almost all personal wallet platforms.
Creating a Gate Wallet Web3 Wallet
Here, I will explain how to use the Gate Wallet without using another wallet.
Open the Gate App and scan the QR code.
Once scanned, you will be redirected to the Gate Wallet.
Click 'Create Wallet'.
Clicking 'Create Now' immediately opens a personal wallet. However, to use it properly, you need the recovery phrase. You can choose Cloud Backup or Manual Backup. I will try Manual Backup.
Recovery Phrase Security Guide:
- Do not record or take a photo of it.
- Do not screenshot or copy and save it.
- The person who holds the recovery phrase is the owner of the wallet.
Please press 'Got it' three times.
When a screen like the one above appears, the 12 words of the recovery phrase will be shown. Please write them down in a notepad or similar place, viewable only offline, and keep them safe. If you lose it, recovery is impossible. Tapping the screen will reveal the 12 words.
Once you solve a short quiz to confirm you've checked the words, the backup is complete.
Depositing to the Wallet
Now, you need to deposit funds to trade. Clicking 'Deposit' or 'Receive' on the wallet's main screen will show a screen like the one on the right.
Since buying coins with a Korean card is impossible, skip 'Buy' and click 'Withdraw from Exchange' or 'Receive'.
The former is the method of transferring funds from Gate's CEX exchange if you already have funds there, and 'Receive' is the method of moving funds from another exchange wallet or personal wallet, etc.
Withdraw from Exchange
I chose the former because I was already using Gate.
The transfer process is the same as the deposit/withdrawal method for a regular exchange. Select the network, set the amount to transfer, and click 'Withdraw'.
Receive
Clicking 'Receive', the latter option, is the same. Select the coin to transfer, choose the network, copy the displayed wallet address, and paste it into the exchange or wallet from which you will be transferring the funds.
How to Move to the DEX Exchange on PC / Mobile
On the PC web screen, you can move directly to the DEX exchange by clicking the place labeled 'Web3' at the top of the exchange.
In the mobile app, clicking the 'Exchange' section at the very top will show 'Exchange / Web3 / Pay'. You can switch using this.
How to Trade Perpetual Futures on Gate DEX
Clicking 'Perps' at the top will take you directly to the futures trading screen.
Transfer to Futures Wallet
First, you must transfer the money you just deposited to the futures wallet to enable futures trading.
If you look at the top right, clicking on the Wallet or the 'Available' arrow part will bring up the Transfer screen.
Futures Trading Method
If you have previously traded futures on Gate, you can use it the same way.
There are no functional differences, and Gate DEX futures trading has separate VIP benefits. However, any existing VIP benefits from the CEX exchange are not linked.

Automatic Level Upgrade: When the total trading volume for 30 days reaches the corresponding criteria, the system automatically upgrades the VIP level. Trading volume and levels are refreshed every 24 hours daily, and reflect immediately upon meeting the criteria.
Level Protection Period: When you first become a VIP or move up to a higher level, a 60-day level protection period is granted. During this period, your level will not drop even if your trading volume is insufficient.
Level Re-evaluation: After the protection period ends, re-evaluation is conducted every 15 days based on the 30-day trading volume. If the required criteria are not met, the level will gradually drop.
