Gate partners with F1 Red Bull Racing Team to land at Victoria Harbour, Hong Kong: Racing the Future

When digital assets meet the ultimate speed on the F1 racing track, what sparks will collide? In April 2026, the crypto asset trading platform Gate provided the answer. As the official sponsor of the F1 Red Bull Racing team, Gate hosted the first F1 Red Bull Racing car parade event on April 16 at Victoria Harbour in Hong Kong. The display cars followed a designated route, bringing top-tier racing culture to Hong Kong’s city landmarks for the first time, attracting large crowds of locals and tourists, with on-site buzz continuously rising.

Following that, from April 18 to 24, Gate launched the “Racing the Future: The Future of Speed” outdoor crossover exhibition along the Victoria Harbour K11 MUSEA waterfront promenade. On the opening day, April 18, the exhibition drew over 10,000 visitors, with crowds continuously gathering in the Victoria Harbour area, creating a lively atmosphere. This parade and exhibition not only marked the highlight of Gate’s 13th anniversary global celebration but also signaled Gate’s transition from an online platform to an offline presence, as a leading global digital asset platform, conveying the brand concept of “speed, precision, innovation” to a broader audience.

F1 2026’s New Car Debuts in Hong Kong, Immersive Interactive Experience Sparks Check-in Frenzy

As the core highlight of the exhibition, Gate showcased for the first time the all-new cars and core equipment of the Red Bull Racing team’s 2026 season. The exhibition area featured immersive interactive zones, allowing every visitor to experience up close the aerodynamics and engineering excellence of F1 cars.

Additionally, exhibits including racing suits, gear, and gloves of champion driver Max Verstappen and driver Isack Hadjar were displayed simultaneously. A giant helmet device of Max Verstappen was also exhibited, becoming one of the most popular check-in spots. This was the first time F1’s current racing cars were publicly displayed in Hong Kong. Whether fans or crypto community users, everyone could find their own speed thrill at this special exhibition.

Blue Carpet Ceremony and Car Parade: When Brand Narratives Take Center Stage in the City

On April 20, Gate held the “Gate 13 Blue Carpet Ceremony” at the exhibition site, unveiling the Red Bull Racing team’s display cars and showcasing brand collaborations. Unlike traditional red carpet events, the blue carpet’s color choice echoed Gate’s brand identity, maintaining a high-end tone while highlighting the brand’s image.

Reflecting on the parade on April 16, the display cars completed a dynamic debut around Victoria Harbour, integrating top-tier racing culture into Hong Kong’s skyline. This outdoor parade combined with static exhibits not only provided a comprehensive showcase of Formula 1 racing but also extended the brand celebration into public spaces, allowing more residents and tourists to experience Gate’s “Future of Speed” spirit firsthand.

Anniversary Gala Dinner: Over 300 Industry Leaders Gather at Victoria Harbour

On the evening of April 20, Gate hosted a high-end anniversary dinner at The Ritz-Carlton Hong Kong, with Founder and CEO Dr. Han attending in person. The dinner attracted over 300 top industry representatives and partners from blockchain, traditional finance, investment institutions, and tech innovation sectors. It was not only a celebration of Gate’s 13 years of development but also a high-level platform for deepening strategic cooperation with global partners.

Crypto Market Accelerates in Tandem: Gate Derivatives Market Share Hits Record 12.2%

While Gate ignited a wave of speed at Victoria Harbour, the crypto market was also experiencing new turbulence and shifts. As of April 20, Bitcoin (BTC) traded within a narrow range of $74,000 to $75,000, and Ethereum (ETH) hovered around $2,280. The total cryptocurrency market cap remained around $2.5 trillion.

On the platform level, Gate delivered impressive results. According to the March 2026 transparency report, Gate’s derivatives market share rose to a record high of 12.2%, ranking second globally; user registrations surpassed 52 million, supporting over 4,500 spot assets. Gate’s overall reserve ratio reached 122%, with Bitcoin reserves at 147%, maintaining industry-leading transparency. Meanwhile, Gate also ranked among the top three globally in spot liquidity and 24-hour trading volume, demonstrating its strong liquidity and rapid execution capabilities.

These figures confirm Gate’s core competitiveness in the crypto industry: amid the race track’s speed, Gate not only elevates its brand online with F1-level velocity but also maintains industry leadership through solid technology and deep liquidity in trading markets.
