The platform’s user base has surpassed 41 million as its “All in Web3” strategy continues to expand. With improvements in spot and derivatives markets, the launch of new Web3 products, and an increase in ecosystem programs, Gate is reinforcing its position as one of the fastest-growing platforms in the digital asset space.
Growth in Trading Volume and Market Share
Gate’s spot trading volume reached $117 billion in September, marking a 20.1% month-on-month increase. This surge boosted its global spot market share to 5.47%. In the derivatives market, Gate’s share climbed to 11.3%, securing its position as the second-largest exchange globally.
Compared to last year, spot trading volume grew nearly 200%, and derivatives trading surged over 1,000%. These gains reflect Gate’s efforts to enhance liquidity depth and improve product offerings, thereby expanding its market presence.
The platform also saw a notable increase in new token listings, which rose more than 200% year-over-year. This improvement in asset variety and liquidity has helped Gate maintain its competitive edge in a rapidly growing market.
Expansion of Web3 Infrastructure
Gate’s commitment to Web3 development is evident through its launch of several new products in September. The platform introduced Gate Layer, a Layer 2 solution built on the OP Stack.
This EVM-compatible network provides low-cost, high-efficiency infrastructure for developers. Additionally, Gate Perp DEX, a decentralized perpetual exchange, was launched on Gate Layer, offering a trading experience with low latency and high performance.
Gate also launched Gate Fun, a no-code token creation platform that allows users to seamlessly launch and trade tokens. This move caters to Web3 creators and supports the growth of the meme economy. Alongside these innovations, Gate’s ecosystem programs such as Launchpool and Launchpad continued to perform well, with Launchpool distributing over $3.3 million in rewards during the month.
Strong Financial and Ecosystem Performance
Gate’s financial ecosystem saw growth through the introduction of GUSD, a stablecoin backed by real-world assets. In just two weeks after its launch, GUSD minted over $120 million. The stablecoin’s flexible utility and stable yield model have gained attention, contributing to Gate’s broader expansion into the Web3 ecosystem.
In wealth management, Gate introduced services aimed at high-net-worth individuals, offering cross-border asset allocation and institutional-grade custody solutions. Additionally, its yield-generating product, Gate Earn, experienced substantial growth, with Simple Earn’s total value locked hitting a new high of $3.14 billion. Gate also continued its on-chain burn of GateToken (GT), removing over $35 million worth of tokens from circulation in Q3 2025.
Brand Recognition and Community Engagement
Gate has made strides in enhancing its brand presence globally. The platform hosted a VIP event at the F1 Azerbaijan Grand Prix, aligning with Oracle Red Bull Racing’s championship win. This event provided an opportunity for industry leaders and global partners to connect and discuss innovations in the digital asset space.
Gate also organized “The Power of Now” series in Dubai, focusing on the intersection of digital assets, artificial intelligence, and art. Furthermore, Gate’s philanthropic efforts continued, with a donation of educational supplies to children at the Cam Ly Children’s Home in Vietnam.
Gate’s education and research platforms, Gate Learn and Gate Research, also remained active in September. Gate Learn published over 100 original articles, covering a range of topics from stablecoins to NFTs. Gate Research produced in-depth reports on market trends, blockchain technology, and the stablecoin market. These efforts are part of Gate’s broader strategy to enhance industry knowledge and drive further innovation.
