Gate.io points are a rewards system that allows users to earn points for trading fees on the Gate.io platform. These points can be used to reduce trading fees, as well as to purchase items from the Gate.io store. Additionally, users can transfer their points to other users, allowing them to benefit from the rewards system even if they don't have enough points to purchase an item themselves. This makes Gate.io points an ideal way to reward users for their loyalty and trading activity on the platform.
