Gate DexBuilder launches Event Contracts Builder, $3M grants

Gate DexBuilder, the decentralized exchange infrastructure arm of Gate, launched an Event Contracts Builder and a $3 million grant program to support teams building event contract markets.

The Event Contracts Builder provides an integrated stack for market creation, trading, liquidity support, settlement and operational management, removing the need for teams to build trading systems and settlement architecture from scratch.

The Builder supports API and SDK integration and includes market data feeds, order and position management, market settlement, risk controls, an operations dashboard and multi-terminal connectivity. Teams can add event contract features to existing products or launch standalone, branded markets hosted on Gate DexBuilder. Projects at any stage-from ideation and MVP through testing to live production-are eligible to apply.

Use cases cited by the platform include outcomes tied to crypto assets, sports and esports results, macroeconomic indicators, AI outputs and industry-specific events.

Selected projects can receive up to $3 million in funding and ecosystem support covering product development, technical integration, liquidity bootstrapping, market launch and user acquisition. Additional support for standout builders includes technical assistance, official showcases, community exposure, joint AMAs, media promotion and introductions to ecosystem partners.

Jason Fung, head of Gate DexBuilder and head of global partnerships, noted that future development of event contract markets will depend on trading volume, a wider set of application scenarios and open infrastructure support. He described Gate DexBuilder’s role as providing flexible building capabilities to partners across industries to accelerate integration with both real-world and Web3 use cases.

Gate, founded in 2013 by Dr. Han, serves more than 58 million users and lists over 4,900 digital assets and 12,500 stock assets. The company has implemented 100% Proof of Reserves and operates products including Gate Wallet, Gate Ventures and Gate for AI Agent.

Gate DexBuilder plans to expand its event contract infrastructure and work with builders worldwide to explore additional application scenarios and grow the event contract market ecosystem.
