The globally leading digital asset trading platform Gate has announced that it will launch the second phase project subscription for Pre-IPOs OpenAI (OPENAI) on July 15. This phase supports participation in dual currencies of USDT and GUSD, allowing users to position themselves in advance for the value opportunities before the listing of the world's top AI unicorn companies, while enjoying multiple subscription rights such as GT Sunshine Rewards and GUSD minting returns.
Gate Pre-IPOs is a digital subscription mechanism launched by the platform, focusing on high-quality pre-listing investment opportunities, providing users with more convenient and diversified participation channels. The subscription period for this OpenAI (OPENAI) project is from July 15, 2026, 15:00 to July 17, 15:00 (UTC+8), with a total subscription value of approximately $20 million, issuing a total of 27,700 OPENAI asset certificates, with a subscription price of 1 OPENAI = 722 USD, and a minimum subscription amount of 100 USDT or 100 GUSD, with this subscription exempting implicit fees and custody costs.
OpenAI is one of the world's leading artificial intelligence companies, with products such as ChatGPT driving the rapid development of generative AI, attracting attention from the global capital markets. Currently, OpenAI has received continuous investments from international technology companies including Microsoft, with a market implied valuation of approximately $895 billion, regarded as one of the most representative tech unicorns of the AI era.
OPENAI asset certificates are mirror notes issued before OpenAI's IPO, used to mirror the market value of the company before and after listing. They are a type of contingent payout note. Gate provides users with various exit methods or long-term holding methods based on the reasonable market value of the target company by acquiring OpenAI stocks in the market to hedge exposure.
In terms of the allocation mechanism, Gate Pre-IPOs uses "average locked amount per hour" as the basis for asset certificate allocation. The earlier a user participates and the longer the lock-up period, the higher the allocation weight. After the subscription is completed, OPENAI will unlock and issue in three phases, completing a 25%, 35%, and 40% unlock on July 17, August 17, and September 17, 2026, respectively.
In addition, OPENAI asset certificates will open for pre-market trading in the Pre-IPOs area at 16:00 (UTC+8) on July 20, 2026, allowing users to choose to circulate or exit through pre-market trading based on market conditions, or exchange stock assets, stock tokens, or trade USDT based on the actual stock market price after the target company goes public and the lock-up period ends through a dedicated page.
At the same time, Gate is launching multiple subscription benefits: eligible VIP users and super agents can participate in the OpenAI (OPENAI) airdrop activities; users who successfully subscribe for amounts exceeding $10,000 will each receive a reward of 1 GT; users who successfully subscribe for amounts below 10,000 USDT will share a 2,000 GT prize pool; users who participate in the subscription using GUSD can also enjoy a 3.8% annualized minting return.
As digital assets continue to integrate with traditional finance, Gate is constantly expanding its global investment ecosystem covering pre-listing, post-listing, and tokenized assets. Currently, the platform has launched products like Pre-IPOs and IPO Access, and has launched Gate Stocks, building a trading service system covering three core markets of US stocks, Hong Kong stocks, and Korean stocks, supporting over 12,500 stocks and ETFs for 7×24 hour trading. In addition, Gate has launched gStocks tokenized securities services, supporting 1:1 fully collateralized native stocks as underlying assets, creating a diversified investment system covering real stocks, pre-listing assets, and on-chain securities.
In the future, Gate will continue to deepen global asset deployment, explore more high-quality stocks, ETFs, and more RWA products, continuously connecting primary markets, secondary markets, and on-chain assets, providing global users with a full lifecycle service covering asset discovery, investment participation, and value circulation, promoting the deep integration of digital assets with traditional finance, and building a more open and efficient one-stop global investment ecosystem.
