[Rumor: Gate Mistakenly Distributed Dividends to BEN Perpetual Contracts, Leading to Thousand-Fold Liquidations for Short Positions] According to a report by Jinse Finance, on September 30, user @aliez_ren revealed on social media that the Gate exchange mistakenly distributed dividends of $0.33 per share, which were intended for BEN stock, to BEN perpetual contracts priced at approximately $0.000585. Due to the bidirectional funding fee mechanism of perpetual contracts, distributing dividends to long positions means deducting funds from short positions. This alleged error reportedly triggered 'thousand-fold' epic liquidations for short positions, resulting in significant profits for users holding long BEN contracts. As of the time of reporting, this claim remains a unilateral allegation on social media, with no official confirmation from Gate.
