Event Details
One-Click Minting & Earnings Mechanism
Users can mint GUSD using USDT or USDC at a 1:1 ratio. The process is streamlined—once you subscribe, there are no extra steps required, and your earnings begin to accumulate automatically.
Earnings are calculated as follows:
- Interest accrual starts the day after subscription is completed
- Earnings are distributed in GUSD before 18:00 the following day after interest starts
- Earnings are based on eligible GUSD holdings in your account
- You can view detailed earnings in your Spot or Unified Account
Multi-Source Earnings Structure
Beyond basic minting rewards, GUSD can be allocated to certain financial products, such as Launchpool or Pre-IPOs. When assets participate in these products, users can simultaneously earn returns from the financial product itself, GUSD minting rewards, and extra bonuses during the event. This structure enables GUSD holders to benefit from multiple layers of returns in specific scenarios.
Annualized Returns & Reward Mechanism
Event earnings consist of two parts:
- Base annualized return: dynamically adjusted according to market conditions and product mechanisms
- Extra rewards: additional incentives provided by the platform, distributed daily in GT
The comprehensive annualized rate is calculated as:
Comprehensive Annualized Rate = Base Annualized Rate + Extra Rewards
Annualized rates are not fixed and may change with market conditions. The reward pool has a total cap; once distributed, the event ends. The actual rate is shown on the subscription page.
Asset Redemption Mechanism
Users can redeem GUSD for USDT or USDC at any time, with a 1:1 exchange rate (minus applicable fees).
There are two redemption methods:
- Fast Redemption: typically completed within about 5 minutes
- Standard Redemption: completed on the third day (D+3) after the request
Redemption fees are dynamically adjusted based on market conditions; the actual rate is shown on the operation page.
GUSD Product Positioning
GUSD is a flexible financial product, with earnings derived from platform ecosystem revenue, government bond-related RWAs (real-world assets), and yield-bearing stablecoin assets. GUSD minted by users essentially serves as a yield certificate, representing the return potential of the underlying asset allocation, but does not confer direct ownership of specific physical assets. The product is tradable, can be used as collateral, and accrues daily earnings.

- Web: Finance → GUSD Minting

Summary
The GUSD Minting Event simplifies the process and offers a multi-layered earnings structure, providing new users with an intuitive way to participate. During the event, eligible users can earn both base returns and extra rewards, while flexibly allocating assets to other financial products. However, since annualized returns are highly dependent on market conditions and the crypto market is inherently volatile, it’s essential to evaluate risks thoroughly and allocate assets according to your own strategy.
