Gate, one of the leading digital asset platforms, has recently released its quarterly report for the second quarter of 2025. The report shows that, despite intensified market volatility and a period of deep industry adjustment, Gate demonstrated strong resilience and steady development. The platform’s global registered user base surpassed 30 million, making it one of the few top-tier exchanges to maintain high-speed growth amid market fluctuations. Meanwhile, Gate achieved remarkable progress in spot and derivatives trading, asset transparency, compliance advancement, product matrix, content ecosystem, and brand influence, steadily moving toward its strategic goal of becoming the “next-generation crypto exchange.”
User Base Exceeds 30 Million; Spot Trading Surges to Rank Second Globally
In Q2 2025, Gate’s overall trading performance remained robust, with derivatives markets performing particularly well. Trading volume repeatedly hit record highs, becoming a key growth engine for the platform. Derivatives trading volume grew significantly year-over-year and continued to rise quarter-over-quarter, greatly boosting overall market activity and further cementing Gate’s leading position in the leveraged trading sector.
On the spot side, while many exchanges saw declining volumes due to reduced market volatility and weakened speculative sentiment, Gate recorded over $110 billion in spot trading volume in April alone, representing a month-over-month increase of more than 14%. With nearly 10% market share, Gate rose to the second position among global centralized exchanges, becoming the only mainstream platform to achieve double-digit growth. By the end of Q2, Gate’s total user base had exceeded 30 million, with the number of new users growing significantly year-over-year, reflecting strong momentum.
At the same time, the pace of new token listings accelerated. The number of new listings in Q2 grew over 65% quarter-over-quarter, further expanding the range of supported assets and enriching the trading matrix, continuously enhancing users’ asset selection and trading opportunities.
Diverse Product Synergy Drives User Growth and Revenue Generation
In Q2 2025, Gate’s spot business performed exceptionally, with multiple product lines continuously driving user engagement and revenue growth. The four flagship token launch products, Launchpad, Launchpool, HODLer Airdrop, and CandyDrop, delivered solid results. The relaunch of Launchpad saw its first project, Puffverse (PFVS), receive over $656 million in subscriptions. Several tokens on Launchpool saw price surges exceeding 100%, HODLer Airdrop launched dozens of airdrop projects with a value of over a million dollars, and more than 30 new projects were listed on CandyDrop. Gate continuously optimized its launch mechanisms, effectively activating user trading and enhancing platform stickiness and ecosystem vitality.
Gate Alpha demonstrated strong growth momentum, becoming the CEX product closest to the DEX experience for on-chain asset launches. Nearly a thousand new projects were rapidly listed in Q2, with cumulative trading users exceeding several hundred thousand.
Popular projects like LABUBU and USELESS posted impressive gains. Additionally, Alpha’s Points campaign and asset screening mechanism continue to enhance Gate’s leadership in high-frequency trading and asset discovery.
On the institutional side, Gate’s institutional derivatives trading volume increased 33% quarter-over-quarter, with both spot and derivatives institutional user numbers up 27%. Latency was significantly optimized, continuously improving the institutional user experience.
In wealth management, Gate’s Simple Earn has added 56 new assets for flexible subscriptions, along with fixed-term products offering up to 150% APR and VIP term options with USDT yields reaching 4.5%. Additionally, Gate Wallet continued to enhance both security and user experience, launching Gate Wallet Touch with NFC support. Through intelligent recommendations, on-chain yield products, and early-stage investment access, Gate is building a smart, secure, and convenient one-stop digital asset management experience, further increasing user loyalty and market competitiveness.
Security and Compliance as Dual Pillars, Reinforcing Global Trust
In Q2 2025, Gate made significant progress in reserve transparency and its global compliance strategy, further solidifying its leadership position in the industry. As of June 2025, Gate’s total reserves stood at $10.453 billion, with an overall reserve ratio of 123.09%, covering over 350 types of assets and maintaining $1.96 billion in excess reserves. Reserve ratios for core assets such as BTC, ETH, and USDT significantly exceeded 100%, with BTC reaching 138.7%. The platform continued to advance the application of technologies like zero-knowledge proofs, further enhancing fund security and transparency, demonstrating a strong commitment to safeguarding user assets.
On the compliance front, Gate Technology FZE, a part of Gate, has obtained a VASP License under the regulation and supervision of VARA in Dubai to provide exchange services and is permitted to serve institutional investors, qualified investors, and retail investors. This milestone marks another significant step forward in Gate’s global compliance strategy.
Content-Driven Growth with Community and Brand Integration
In Q2 2025, Gate continued to strengthen its content ecosystem and community operations, promoting the platform’s soft power through education, product optimization, and cultural collaboration. The Gate Learn platform continued to release high-quality original content in both Chinese and English, providing users with a steady stream of professional knowledge. Gate Research achieved breakthroughs in content production and domain coverage by continuously improving its regular series, including the Quantitative Biweekly, Monthly On-Chain Data Report, Monthly Financing Report, and Monthly Cryptocurrency Market Review, helping investors better understand the crypto market.
Meanwhile, Gate Square and the Community Center underwent complete UI upgrades, optimizing both interactive experience and content distribution mechanisms. As a result, user activity and traffic significantly increased, making the community ecosystem more mature.
In terms of brand and cultural initiatives, Gate also achieved notable results. The platform partnered with Oracle Red Bull Racing in F1 to launch a co-branded digital collectibles series, with cumulative minting exceeding 2 million, sparking a frenzy of user participation. Gate also collaborated with Inter’s goalkeeper Yann Sommer to co-produce a security-themed video, deeply integrating the platform’s philosophy with sportsmanship. Additionally, Gate launched a custom pizza campaign for Bitcoin Pizza Day to pay tribute to crypto history and strengthen emotional ties with the community. Simultaneously, flagship events such as the SPORT3 Sports Carnival, WCTC Global Trading Competition, and VIP Airdrop Festival were rolled out in succession, enriching user participation scenarios and continuously amplifying brand vitality and global influence.
Throughout the second quarter, Gate achieved breakthroughs and accumulation across multiple dimensions, including user growth, technical capabilities, ecosystem synergy, security and transparency, global compliance, and brand development, demonstrating strong capacity for systematic growth. As the market continues to evolve, Gate will remain committed to a tech-driven and user-centric approach, focusing on product experience and ecosystem value. With a long-term mindset, it aims to drive healthy industry development and accelerate its journey toward becoming the next-generation crypto exchange.
