Gate releases the 2026 March Transparency Report: Global users surpass 51 million, trading volume and ecosystem development grow in tandem

Gate announced its March 2026 transparency report. Based on third-party data and platform disclosures, Gate is building a multi-asset growth model through the coordinated development of derivatives, TradFi, and on-chain ecosystems, continuously strengthening its leading position in global trading platforms.

The report shows that Gate continues to improve its core trading capabilities. According to CoinDesk data, its derivatives market share has risen to 12.2%, reaching a new high, with monthly growth leading the industry; meanwhile, the platform’s liquidity has long ranked among the top three globally, and its 24-hour spot trading volume is second worldwide. In terms of user base, registered users have exceeded 51 million, with trading depth and activity growing in tandem. The spot market covers over 4,500 assets, with market breadth continuously expanding.

Structurally, TradFi business has become the most prominent growth driver this month. Data shows that Gate’s TradFi segment’s single-day trading peak surpassed $20 billion, covering over 350 assets, including metals, stocks, indices, forex, and commodities, with 174 new assets added this month. Supported by multi-asset and high-leverage mechanisms, this business is rapidly becoming a key support for platform liquidity and trading volume, reflecting increased user cross-market asset allocation needs.

On-chain ecosystems also remain highly active. In March, Gate Layer on-chain transaction volume increased by over 14% month-over-month, reaching approximately 32.6 million transactions. With infrastructure performance optimizations and expanded application scenarios, on-chain trading and interaction scales continue to grow, further enhancing its competitiveness in decentralized trading.

In terms of products and capital integration, multiple business lines at Gate are experiencing coordinated growth. In wealth management, YuBiBao and on-chain earning products still achieved dual growth in users and funds amid market volatility, with BTC and ETH holdings in on-chain earning reaching record highs of 3,084 BTC and 175.7k ETH, respectively. ETF trading volume in March exceeded 18 billion USDT, with overall scale continuing to expand. Additionally, incentive products like Launchpool, HODLer Airdrop, and CandyDrop, through airdrops and yield mechanisms, effectively boost user participation and capital inflow, creating a positive cycle of trading and funds.

Notably, Gate is building an AI product ecosystem around its Intelligent Web3 strategy, gradually covering products like Gate for AI, GateClaw, GateAI, and GateRouter, and accelerating the integration of AI technology into the trading ecosystem. During the reporting period, Gate AI completed product deployment across Web, macOS, and Windows platforms, covering over 80 application scenarios, including market analysis, strategy assistance, and research support. With the introduction of multimodal interaction and Deep Research capabilities, AI is gradually penetrating high-frequency trading and research processes, becoming a key direction for platform capability upgrades.

In institutional business, Gate also demonstrates strong competitiveness. In the authoritative crypto industry media BeInCrypto’s “2026 Best Institutional Crypto Trading Platform” ranking, Gate’s institutional services were rated as the “Best Institutional Trading Platform,” ranking first overall. The platform’s low-latency matching (~2 milliseconds), deep liquidity, and multi-asset trading system continue to attract hedge funds and market makers. Additionally, Gate’s institutional division enhances capital efficiency and security through the SuperLink cross-market account system and third-party custody partnerships.

On security and transparency, Gate continues to strengthen its reserve mechanism. Its March reserve report shows the platform’s overall reserve coverage ratio reached 122%, significantly above industry benchmarks, with BTC reserves at 147%, and multiple asset classes maintained with excess reserves. Furthermore, in the exchange transparency ranking published by RootData, Gate ranked second globally, reflecting its comprehensive advantages in transparency and liquidity metrics.

In brand and ecosystem development, Gate continues to expand its global influence. In March, the platform partnered with Red Bull Racing to host the F1 Japan Grand Prix viewing event, strengthening connections with partners through high-profile activities. Community events and content ecosystems are also expanding; Gate’s blog published over 1,100 articles in a single month, and the research institute and academy continue to produce in-depth analyses on AI, RWA, and macro markets, enhancing user education and information services.

Overall, Gate is evolving from a single trading platform into a comprehensive financial service ecosystem covering multiple assets and cross-market activities. With further integration of derivatives, TradFi, and on-chain businesses, as well as ongoing AI and quantitative capabilities upgrades, its advantages in trading efficiency, capital onboarding, and user engagement are expected to further grow. In the context of increasing global market competition, this multi-business collaborative development model further consolidates the platform’s scale and structural advantages.
