Gate released the Q3 2025 report: Global users exceed 41 million, building a diverse and integrated crypto ecosystem.

The global cryptocurrency trading platform Gate has released its Q3 2025 report. The report shows that against the backdrop of a recovering overall crypto market and stabilizing regulations, Gate has achieved a multi-dimensional leap in trading scale, ecosystem construction, and global influence through product structure upgrades and the continuous deepening of its All in Web3 strategy. During the quarter, the platform's user base surpassed 41 million, with both contract and spot trading volumes reaching new highs. The ecosystem products were fully upgraded, and the technology and compliance systems were further strengthened, solidifying its position among the world's leading exchanges.

Trading Business Continues to Grow, Derivatives and Spot Set Records

In Q3, Gate's trading volume and market share both reached historic highs, with contract and spot businesses maintaining synchronized growth momentum. According to data from CoinDesk and CoinGecko, Gate's derivatives trading volume saw a month-on-month increase ranking among the top three globally in July, and surged nearly 100% in August, raising its market share to 10.1%, the highest increase in the industry. The spot market also performed strongly, with a cumulative market share increase of 2.87% since the beginning of the year, the highest among major global exchanges; in September, the monthly spot trading volume grew by 20.1%, with market share rising to 5.47%, setting a new historical record.

The continuous increase in trading activity is attributed to Gate's comprehensive upgrades in matching engine performance, market-making mechanisms, and institutional capital support, allowing the platform to maintain a leading position in high-frequency and professional trading scenarios. With robust trading volume growth and an international market layout, Gate has established a solid competitive barrier in the global exchange landscape.

Ecosystem Construction Accelerates, Driven by Infrastructure and Product Matrix

In terms of ecosystem development, Gate officially launched the high-performance Layer 2 network Gate Layer this quarter, marking a strategic upgrade of the platform's infrastructure. This network is based on the OP Stack architecture, supporting EVM compatibility and cross-chain interoperability, providing developers and users with an efficient on-chain experience with a performance of over 5,700 transactions per second and low-cost advantages. As the only Gas token for Gate Layer, GT's application scenarios have further expanded, reshaping its ecological value realization.

Leveraging the Gate Layer infrastructure, Gate introduced two core innovative products: the decentralized perpetual contract platform Gate Perp DEX and the on-chain Meme token launch platform Gate Fun. Gate Perp DEX focuses on high-performance matching and transparent on-chain settlement, creating a DEX trading environment close to a centralized experience, with trading volume exceeding $1 billion to date, showcasing strong market vitality. Gate Fun provides a zero-code token issuance tool and an integrated trading system, lowering the entry barrier for creators and users into Web3. Together, these two innovative products build the technological and ecological foundation for Gate in the decentralized field.

At the same time, Gate's incentive products such as Launchpool, Launchpad, CandyDrop, and HODLer Airdrop have been upgraded, with user participation and on-chain activity reaching new highs. Among them, Launchpool has launched over 50 quality projects, with cumulative airdrop rewards exceeding $7.5 million; the number of participants in Launchpad surpassed one million in Q3. The systematic expansion of a diverse ecosystem is becoming a dual engine for Gate's long-term growth and value accumulation.

Additionally, Gate launched a new financial product, GUSD, which has developed rapidly since its launch, with a total issuance exceeding $230 million by September, making it one of the fastest-growing stable income products in the platform's ecosystem. Users can hold GUSD in spot, financial accounts, and Launchpool scenarios, and when investing GUSD into other financial products, they can simultaneously enjoy the returns from those products, forming a layered income structure.

Strengthening Security and Compliance Systems, Reserve Ratio Remains Industry-Leading

In terms of security and compliance, Gate continues to operate at high standards. In Q3, the platform's total reserve value reached $12.02 billion, with a total reserve ratio of 123.98%, covering over 400 types of user assets, and the excess reserve amount rose to $2.32 billion, a month-on-month increase of 7.14%. From the data performance, Gate continues to maintain a high level of fund security and asset transparency, solidifying the foundation of user trust.

Moreover, the platform's compliance layout is also continuously advancing. Gate Technology Ltd, a subsidiary of Gate Group in Malta, has obtained a MiCA license under the supervision of the Malta Financial Services Authority (MFSA), marking an important milestone in Gate Group's global compliance strategy. With the approval of the Malta license, the platform has initiated the EU passporting mechanism process, accelerating its expansion in Europe and aiming to become one of the leading crypto enterprises in the region.

Financial Products and Institutional Business Steadily Expanding, Driving Trading System Upgrades

Gate's financial management and institutional business both achieved outstanding performance in Q3. Gate Earn had an average daily participation of over 360,000 people, with a cumulative subscription amount exceeding $13 billion, and total funds breaking through to $3.143 billion, a month-on-month increase of 46.5%, setting a new historical high; on-chain earning and dual-currency investment products saw significant growth, with the newly launched "earn while holding" feature allowing spot assets to automatically earn returns without locking, further expanding ways for users to increase asset value.

In terms of institutional business, contract and spot trading volumes increased by over 30% and 40% respectively month-on-month, with cumulative lending exceeding $10 billion. During the same period, Gate launched the industry's first Web2/Web3 connectivity system, Gate SuperLink, breaking down the ecological barriers between traditional finance and crypto assets, providing institutional clients with more efficient fund and asset management solutions.

Deepening Community and Brand Building, International Influence Continues to Rise

In Q3, Gate continued to deepen global community building and brand influence expansion, further enhancing user interaction and brand recognition through online and offline activities. Gate appeared as a diamond sponsor at the important Southeast Asian industry event GM Vietnam 2025, strengthening connections with local communities and project parties; it was invited to attend Coinfest Asia 2025, creating a bridge for local users and developers to connect with the global ecosystem; and it appeared as a naming sponsor at the WebX summit in Tokyo, Japan, bringing multiple high-level speeches and side events, attracting widespread attention from the industry.

Additionally, Gate held a VIP viewing event during the Azerbaijan F1 Grand Prix, continuously bridging the gap with users and partners, further conveying brand vitality and innovative spirit. In terms of public welfare, Gate Charity initiated education and scholarship projects in Benin and Vietnam, with the mission of "discovering the missing and bringing care," continuously conveying the warmth of the brand.
