Gate has officially launched Japanese stock trading through Gate Stocks, initially supporting approximately 300 stocks listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange. Users can buy and sell Japanese stocks directly with USDT without opening a separate Japanese brokerage account or manually converting funds into JPY.
To celebrate the launch, Gate presents the limited-time “Gate Japan Stock Launch” campaign. Complete your first Japanese stock trade to receive Sony Group shares, hold any eligible Japanese stock to share a Nintendo stock pool, and accumulate Japanese stock trading volume to share Toyota Motor shares. A Top Gainer Prediction is also available, giving users additional opportunities to earn Japanese stock rewards by completing the prediction and trading requirements.

- Reward stocks must be Japanese stocks available for trading in the Gate Japanese Stocks section. If the listing schedule of a reward stock changes, the campaign page will prevail.

- USDT-equivalent values shown on the campaign page are estimates based on stock prices and exchange rates when the campaign plan was prepared and do not represent guaranteed fixed values.
