In January 2026, digital asset trading platform Gate released its latest transparency report . The report shows that the platform continues to advance in core areas such as multi-asset trading, on-chain derivatives, and asset management, while its trading structure and user scenarios are constantly expanding. While maintaining the stable operation of its core crypto asset business, Gate is accelerating its evolution into a comprehensive digital asset platform covering traditional financial assets, on-chain trading, and yield management.

In terms of trading, according to the latest report from CoinDesk, Gate's derivatives market share has increased to 11%, making it one of the fastest-growing centralized trading platforms during the period. CryptoRank pointed out in its annual report that Gate's perpetual contract trading volume grew from $911.2 billion in the first quarter of 2025 to $2.42 trillion in the third quarter, and maintained a high level of $1.93 trillion in the fourth quarter. Its contract trading volume growth rate significantly outpaced mainstream leading platforms, and Gate was rated as the platform with the highest contract trading volume growth rate in 2025.

In the traditional financial asset space, Gate TradFi covers asset classes such as metals, forex, indices, commodities, and some popular stocks, with a cumulative trading volume exceeding $20 billion since its launch. Its functionality is fully integrated into the Gate App and web platform, allowing users to participate in multi-market trading using USDT as margin within a unified account system, enabling flexible switching and combination of crypto and traditional asset strategies. With the increasing demand for precious metals and macro-related assets, multi-asset price trading and cross-market hedging are forming new growth momentum.

Beyond trading and asset allocation, Gate is introducing AI capabilities into users' high-frequency decision-making scenarios. Launched in January 2026, GateAI focuses on asset analysis and market interpretation, assisting with market browsing and candlestick chart analysis through a global floating entry point and contextualized prompts. In its first month, GateAI achieved a user satisfaction rate of approximately 88%, and has begun to integrate into users' daily trading decision-making processes.

Meanwhile, Gate continues to improve its decentralized contract trading capabilities. In January, Gate DEX completed a brand and experience upgrade, officially changing its name from Gate Web3 to Gate DEX, and supporting one-click login for accounts and wallets, lowering the barrier to on-chain trading. Perp DEX saw nearly 440,000 transactions, significantly increasing the activity of on-chain perpetual transactions. Furthermore, the Gate Layer network activity further improved, with the number of on-chain addresses exceeding 100 million, monthly transaction volume increasing by over 22% month-over-month, and user interaction and on-chain behavior frequency continuing to strengthen, providing underlying support for multi-chain asset circulation and ecosystem application deployment.

In asset management and structured products, Gate.com is advancing multiple product lines simultaneously. On-Chain Earnings' TVL reached $1.301 billion at the end of January, climbing to a high of $1.512 billion during the month, with ETH staking reaching nearly 170,000 ETH, a record high. ETF leveraged token trading volume exceeded 6.7 billion USDT in January, a 32.6% increase month-over-month. Savings Accounts' cumulative subscription amount exceeded 2.5 billion USDT in January, with an average of over 350,000 daily participants. BTC and GT holdings grew simultaneously, indicating continued user demand for core assets and stable allocations in a volatile market environment.

In terms of security and transparency, Gate continues to strengthen its reserves and verifiable mechanisms. In January, the overall reserve coverage ratio increased to 125%, with total reserves of approximately $9.478 billion. The BTC reserve ratio reached 140.69%, while the reserve ratios for major assets such as ETH, USDT, and GT all exceeded 100%, maintaining the platform's industry-leading asset reserves and risk buffering capabilities.

In terms of brand and community building, Gate continues to strengthen the long-term connection between the platform and creators, users, and organizations through content mechanism upgrades and high-quality event operations. On the one hand, with Gate Square and Gate Live as the core, it continuously improves content incentives and conversion paths, promoting the integration of high-quality creations into transactions and ecosystem synergy; on the other hand, through multi-level activities such as closed-door exchanges with organizations and annual community galas, it expands professional dialogue and brand influence, further consolidating Gate's leading position as a comprehensive encryption platform in terms of user ecosystem and industry participation.

Overall, Gate is advancing across multiple business lines simultaneously, gradually building a more comprehensive and collaborative trading and asset management system by continuously expanding its asset coverage, product offerings, and technological capabilities. As the market environment and user needs continue to evolve, Gate's long-term development path as a comprehensive digital asset platform is being solidified, and it has the potential to further expand its application scenarios and ecosystem boundaries.
