[Gate Officially Launches Real Stock Trading Service, Directly Connecting to the U.S. Securities Market via Licensed Brokers] Odaily Planet Daily News – According to an official announcement, the globally leading digital asset platform Gate has officially launched a real stock trading service, allowing users to directly participate in trading stocks and ETFs in the mainstream U.S. securities market using USDT. Currently, Android users can experience the stock trading feature by updating the Gate App to the latest version, while iOS users can access the service after updating to version 8.21.5. Unlike the widely discussed stock tokenization and RWA mapping models in the current market, Gate's stock service does not involve on-chain mapped assets or tokenized derivatives. Instead, it connects directly to the real securities market through a compliant broker holding a U.S. Broker-Dealer license and clearing qualifications, providing users with real stock trading services. The broker partnered with Gate is also a member of the Securities Investor Protection Corporation (SIPC) in the U.S., which, under certain conditions, can offer corresponding protection for clients' securities assets. This model aims to enhance trading transparency, asset security, and investor protection mechanisms, while also reflecting Gate's ongoing expansion of its integration capabilities within the traditional financial market.
