Gate is a centralized exchange, which means your assets are stored in wallets associated with the exchange, rather than in your own personal wallet. The exchange manages the wallet’s private keys, mnemonic phrases, and other security credentials. You only need to remember your login password and fund password. If you forget them, you can recover access using the “Forgot Password” feature.
Gate DEX is a decentralized exchange. With the Gate Web3 wallet, you have complete control over your assets, private keys, and mnemonic phrases—Gate does not know or store your private keys, asset balances, or any related information. It’s essential to securely back up and safeguard your mnemonic phrase or private key; if you lose them, your assets cannot be recovered.
If Gate exchange products are unavailable in your country or region, you can use the Gate Web3 wallet to trade on Gate DEX.
