Building Scale, Trust, and the Next Era of Crypto The year 2025 marked a defining chapter in Gate’s evolution not merely as a trading platform, but as a comprehensive crypto ecosystem built for durability, scale, and long-term relevance. This was not a year of incremental growth; it was a year of structural transformation. Gate advanced beyond expansion metrics and focused on strengthening its foundation, refining its vision, and reinforcing trust across a rapidly maturing global market. With its user base approaching 50 million worldwide, Gate has firmly positioned itself among the most widely adopted and trusted platforms in the industry. This growth was not driven by speculation or short-lived trends, but by years of consistent product development, a user-centric strategy, and a disciplined approach to innovation. In an environment where many platforms chase volume, Gate focused on building resilience. One of the most notable milestones of 2025 was Gate’s rise to second place globally in spot trading volume. This achievement reflects not only scale, but depth deep liquidity, efficient order execution, and sustained trader confidence during periods of heightened volatility. Equally significant was the rapid expansion of Gate’s derivatives ecosystem, which surpassed 10.6% market share in the global contracts market. This growth signals increasing participation from both professional and advanced retail traders who prioritize performance, reliability, and robust risk management. Gate’s progress extended well beyond centralized trading. Throughout 2025, the platform made strategic advances in Web3 and on-chain infrastructure, reinforcing its role as a true builder within the decentralized economy. On-chain transaction activity exceeded 6.5 million, demonstrating strong user engagement across staking, DeFi protocols, token launches, airdrops, and community-driven initiatives. Meanwhile, the self-developed Gate Layer network crossed 100 million addresses, highlighting large-scale adoption and confirming Gate’s commitment to long-term blockchain development rather than surface-level integration. Security and transparency remained non-negotiable pillars of this growth. Gate continued to uphold its 100% proof-of-reserves framework, maintaining reserve ratios well above industry norms. In a sector where trust is repeatedly tested, Gate’s consistent transparency, conservative asset management, and rigorous risk controls reinforced user confidence and set a benchmark for operational integrity. Throughout the year, Gate expanded across every critical dimension of the platform. Trading systems were upgraded for speed and stability, mobile performance was optimized for global accessibility, fiat gateways were broadened, liquidity pools were strengthened, and AI-driven analytics were introduced to enhance market insight and decision-making. Alongside this, Gate accelerated its global presence through educational programs, compliance enhancements, ecosystem partnerships, and community-focused initiatives all aligned with a vision of sustainable growth rather than rapid expansion at the cost of stability. As the industry moves into 2026, Gate stands on a powerful foundation built throughout 2025. What exists today is no longer just an exchange it is a fully integrated crypto ecosystem that bridges centralized finance and Web3 under a unified strategy. Gate has positioned itself as infrastructure for the next phase of crypto adoption, where trust, usability, and decentralization converge. For those already part of the Gate community, this journey represents participation in a platform that is actively shaping the future. For those watching from the outside, the trajectory is clear. The data, the execution, and the momentum all point in one direction. The future is not approaching it is already being built. And Gate is moving forward with its global community at the center of that progress.
