8.More ETF products launched.
Over the past two weeks, we have launched ETF products for YFI, YFII, OKB, HT and FIL. The leveraged ETF product re-balances to target leverage every day following the profit and loss. Profit will be used to expand your position while the loss will lead to decrease the position. When trading with ETFs, you do not have to pay a margin, you can simply buy and sell it to enjoy increased exposure like you are trading with leverage. As FIL/USDT funding rate in the perpetual contract market has increased to 6% per day, the management fee of ETFs with FIL as an underlying asset has been adjusted as well.

9. Added Support for FIL Perpetual Contract Trading and Margin Lending
We have added support for FIL/USDT perpetual contract trading, which allows up to 20x leverage. https://www.gate.io/futures_trade/USDT/FIL_USDT
We have also enabled FIL margin trading and lending. The margin trading supports up to 3x leverage. Lend FIL at https://www.gate.io/margin/lend/FIL

10. FIL6 to FIL Daily Swap
A portion of FIL6 will be swapped for FIL on a daily basis following the launch of FIL mainnet. Gate.io has been swapping 0.55% FIL6 for FIL everyday. We had completed the FIL6 for FIL swap from October 16th – 30th, 1.3k FIL have been distributed to our users daily.

11. ARN to ARNX Migration
On October 20th, Gate.io swapped ARN for ARNX on a ratio of 1:1. We enabled ARNX deposits, withdrawals and trading services afterwards. Read more at https://www.gate.io/en/article/18088

12. Payment Refunded & Free HYVE Allocated to Voters
For Listing Vote on HYVE, we have set the token airdrop price for voters according to the HYVE team’s reference price as usual. However, that price seems to be higher than the market price now, leaving our voters little room for profit. That is against our intention to offer our users a bonus by allocating the tokens. We have decided to return the payment voters have paid while allowing them to keep the HYVE tokens allocated still.
