Deep Dive

1. Spot Suspension Timing

Gates delisting program sets the suspension of spot and quantitative grid trading for 17 coins at 03:00 UTC on 20 Nov 2025. The notice above states deposits are already halted and active grid strategies will terminate automatically at suspension.

2. Futures Wind-Down Steps

For a separate set of perpetual contracts (for example NODE_USDT, HIFI_USDT), Gate placed them into reduce-only at 07:30 UTC on 13 Nov 2025, canceled open orders at 08:00 UTC, and auto-settled positions using the average index price from 07:3008:00 UTC to limit manipulation, per the notice above.

1. Reduce-only prevents increasing exposure while allowing position reduction prior to settlement.
2. The averaging window can be extended if price moves are unusually large to ensure fair settlement.

3. Buyback And Withdrawals

After spot delisting, Gate provides withdrawals and a limited buyback program. The notice above specifies a buyback window from 16:00 UTC on 03 Dec to 16:00 UTC on 10 Dec 2025, with fixed USDT prices per token, a maximum buyback limit of 100 USDT per user, and exclusions such as BSX. Gate may announce later timelines for wallet service termination.
