The globally leading digital asset platform Gate recently released its Q2 2025 report. The report shows that amidst increased volatility in the cryptocurrency market and a deep adjustment period for the industry, Gate has demonstrated robust and strong development resilience. The platform's global registered users have surpassed 30 million, making it one of the few top exchanges to achieve rapid growth during market turbulence. Meanwhile, Gate has made significant achievements in areas such as spot and contract trading, asset transparency, compliance progress, product matrix, content ecosystem, and brand influence, steadily moving towards its strategic goal of becoming the "next-generation super unicorn exchange."
User Base Surpasses 30 Million, Spot Trading Rises Against the Trend to Become Second Globally
In Q2 2025, Gate's overall trading performance remained strong, with the contract market being particularly outstanding, achieving record-high trading volumes and becoming the core engine of the platform's growth. Contract trading volume saw a significant year-on-year increase and continued to rise quarter-on-quarter, significantly boosting overall market activity and further consolidating Gate's leading position in leveraged trading.
In terms of spot trading, while most exchanges experienced a general decline in trading volume due to decreased market volatility and weakened speculative sentiment, Gate recorded over $110 billion in spot trading volume in April, a quarter-on-quarter increase of over 14%, jumping to second place globally among CEXs with nearly 10% market share, becoming the only mainstream platform to achieve double-digit growth. By the end of Q2, Gate's total user base had surpassed 30 million, with a significant year-on-year increase in new users, showcasing strong growth momentum.
At the same time, the platform accelerated the pace of new coin listings, with the number of new listings in Q2 increasing by over 65% quarter-on-quarter, further expanding the total number of supported currencies, enriching the trading matrix, and continuously enhancing users' asset selection and trading opportunities.
Diverse Products Collaborate to Drive User Growth and Revenue
In Q2 2025, Gate's spot business performed excellently, with multiple product lines continuously driving user activity and revenue growth. The four major new product offerings—Launchpad, Launchpool, HODLer Airdrop, and CandyDrop—continued to gain traction in Q2. Among them, the highly anticipated first project of Launchpad, Puffverse (PFVS), saw subscriptions exceeding $656 million, while several tokens on Launchpool doubled in value. The HODLer Airdrop launched dozens of airdrop projects, valued at over a million dollars, and CandyDrop saw over 30 projects launched. Gate continuously optimizes its new product mechanisms, effectively activating user trading and enhancing platform stickiness and ecosystem activity.
Gate Alpha has shown strong growth momentum, becoming the on-chain asset launch platform closest to a DEX experience among CEXs. In Q2, nearly a thousand new projects were rapidly launched, with the cumulative number of trading users exceeding hundreds of thousands, and popular projects like LABUBU and USELESS showing impressive gains. Additionally, the Alpha points program and on-chain asset screening mechanism continuously enhance the platform's leading advantages in high-frequency trading and asset discovery.
In terms of institutional business, Gate's contract trading volume for institutions increased by 33.59% quarter-on-quarter, while the number of institutional users for both spot and contract trading grew by 27.42%, with significant improvements in trading latency and enhanced institutional experience. In the wealth management product sector, the Yubibao added 56 new currencies for flexible subscriptions this quarter, launching fixed-term wealth management products with annualized returns of up to 150% and VIP fixed-term products (with USDT annualized returns reaching 4.5%). Furthermore, Gate Wallet continues to optimize security and user experience, launching the NFC-supported hardware wallet Gate Wallet Touch, and creating a smart, secure, and convenient one-stop digital asset management experience through features like smart recommendations, on-chain earning, and early project investments, further enhancing user stickiness and market competitiveness.
Dual Drive of Security and Compliance, Solidifying Global Trust
In Q2 2025, Gate made significant progress in reserve transparency and global compliance strategy, continuously consolidating its leading position in the industry. Data shows that as of June 2025, Gate's total reserves reached $10.453 billion, with a total reserve ratio of 123.09%, covering over 350 types of assets, and an excess reserve amount of $1.96 billion. The reserve ratios for core currencies such as BTC, ETH, and USDT are all significantly above 100%, with BTC reaching 138.7%. The platform continues to promote the application of advanced technologies such as zero-knowledge proofs, further enhancing fund security and transparency, demonstrating a strong commitment to user asset safety.
In terms of compliance, Gate's entity Gate Technology FZE has obtained a VASP license under the regulation of Dubai VARA, allowing it to provide cryptocurrency trading services to institutional investors, qualified investors, and retail users. This important milestone marks another deepening expansion of Gate Group's global compliance strategy.
Diverse Content Drives Growth, Community and Brand Collaborate
In Q2 2025, Gate continued to invest in content ecology and community operations, enhancing the platform's soft power through educational empowerment, product optimization, and cultural co-creation. The Gate Learn platform continuously launched high-quality original articles in both Chinese and English, providing users with a steady stream of professional content support; Gate Research achieved breakthroughs in content production and field coverage, continuously optimizing reports such as "Quantitative Biweekly," "Monthly On-Chain Data Report," "Monthly Financing Report," and "Monthly Cryptocurrency Market Review," allowing investors to gain deeper insights into the cryptocurrency market. Meanwhile, Gate Square and the community center underwent a complete UI overhaul, with dual optimizations in interactive experience and content distribution mechanisms, significantly enhancing user activity and visit volume, leading to a more mature community ecosystem.
There have also been frequent successes in brand and cultural development. Gate partnered with the Red Bull F1 team to launch a co-branded NFT, with the total minting volume exceeding 2 million, sparking a wave of user claims; the platform also collaborated with Inter Milan goalkeeper Jan Sommer to co-create a safety-themed short film, deeply integrating the platform's philosophy with sports spirit. Additionally, Gate launched a special custom pizza event on Bitcoin Pizza Day, paying tribute to industry history and strengthening emotional connections with community culture. During the same period, flagship events such as the SPORT3 Sports Carnival, WCTC Global Trading Competition, and VIP Airdrop Carnival were successively held, enriching user participation scenarios and continuously releasing brand vitality and global influence.
Throughout Q2, Gate achieved breakthroughs and accumulations in multiple dimensions such as user scale, technological capabilities, ecological collaboration, security transparency, global compliance, and brand building, demonstrating a profound strength for systematic growth. In the face of the ever-changing market cycle, Gate will continue to adhere to technology-driven and user-oriented principles, deeply cultivating product experience and ecological value, promoting the healthy evolution of the cryptocurrency industry with a long-term perspective, and accelerating its pace towards becoming the "next-generation super unicorn exchange."
