Meanwhile, Gate collaborates with top global brands, using offline scenarios as touchpoints to connect Web3 with the mainstream world. By becoming an official sponsor of the Red Bull Racing Formula 1 team and the official armband sponsor of Inter Milan Football Club, Gate continuously brings its brand into high-profile real-world scenarios globally, extending its reach through digital collectibles, themed receptions, and immersive offline events centered around sporting events, strengthening brand awareness and emotional resonance. Furthermore, through deep involvement in international industry conferences such as the Hong Kong Consensus Conference, the Tokyo WebX Summit, and Coinfest Asia, as well as sponsoring the Token of Love music festival and actively participating in community activities and charitable projects, Gate is gradually extending Web3 from trading platforms to a wider range of real-world use cases and a public value network.
Overall, in 2025, Gate made substantial progress in core dimensions such as user scale, trading depth, and ecosystem synergy, demonstrating its comprehensive competitiveness as a leading global digital asset trading platform. Against the backdrop of a clearer global regulatory environment and intensified industry competition, Gate will continue to advance its "All in Web3" strategy, building a safer, more efficient, and open digital asset and Web3 ecosystem for global users through compliance efforts, technological investment, and diversified business development.
