Gate News reports that, according to Gate’s official announcement on June 4, 2026, Gate will launch a mechanism for automatic adjustment of component weight for traditional financial asset index constituents. The new mechanism supports, during market closure, automatically adjusting the weights of components that stop quoting to 0%, so that the index calculation continues to be taken over by active components that are still continuously quoting; when the market opens, components that stop quoting resume quoting, and their weights automatically return to the regular allocation.
This is intended to ensure that the index continuously reflects the true value of the market at any time period, and to reduce the impact of funding rates on users’ account net asset value. The mechanism’s initial coverage includes 8 contract markets: XAU_USDT, XAG_USDT, XPT_USDT, XPD_USDT, XCU_USDT, CL_USDT, BZ_USDT, and NG_USDT. It will be gradually expanded to a wider scope in the future based on market conditions.
