Gate's own February 2026 Transparency Report also confirms this growth and provides additional details. According to the report, the platform's spot trading volume reached $74.4 billion, representing an 11.1% increase compared to the previous month. In line with CoinDesk data, Gate ranked third in spot market share among centralized exchanges and fourth in derivatives market share. Derivatives open interest share on retail-focused exchanges was realized at approximately 10%.
The platform's multi-asset strategy also delivered notable results. Through the CandyDrop campaign, $15.2 billion was contributed to derivatives trading volume. Average daily volume in institutional futures trading increased by 20%. Additionally, Gate's integration with the TradFi system, enabling trading of traditional finance assets such as forex, metals, indices, commodities, and select stocks with USDT on a single account, reached a monthly trading volume of $95 billion and a daily peak of $12 billion. This integration is considered an important step accelerating Gate's Web3, TradeFi, and AI strategy.
Despite the volume decline in the broader market, Gate's growth in derivatives reflects the confidence retail and institutional investors hold in the platform.
These developments, supported by transparency reports and independent data, strengthen Gate's competitive position among centralized exchanges. For investors, increasing liquidity and a diversified product range offer more efficient derivatives trading and risk management opportunities.
Detailed data on Gate's February 2026 performance has been shared with the public through the platform's official Transparency Report and CoinDesk's Exchange Review report. Given the volatility of market conditions, Gate's record in derivatives products is among the developments that will be closely monitored in the industry.
