Gate releases the April 2026 Transparency Report: AI, RWA, and multi-asset collaboration accelerate the building of global financial infrastructure

Gate releases the April 2026 Transparency Report. The report shows that driven by multiple factors such as multi-asset ecosystem expansion, AI capability upgrades, and global brand promotion, the platform’s overall business maintains steady growth and accelerates its evolution into a comprehensive digital financial infrastructure platform.

From key operational indicators, Gate currently serves over 53 million users, with more than 4,600 assets listed, and continues to expand its multi-asset trading system. According to third-party data, it has listed over 430 TradFi CFD assets and more than 70 tokenized stocks, integrating spot, derivatives, and RWA products through a unified account system, with cross-market liquidity integration capabilities continuously strengthening.

The deflationary mechanism of the platform token GT is also steadily advancing. In the first quarter of 2026, Gate burned approximately 2.56M GT tokens, worth over 20.68 million USD; the total burned amount has exceeded 187 million tokens, accounting for 62.46% of the initial supply, with a total burned value of 2.56M USD. The long-term stable burning mechanism continues to reinforce its scarcity and value support.

On the business side, multiple product lines at Gate achieved coordinated growth in April. Institutional business CrossEx saw a month-over-month increase of 1,769% in funds and 2,120% in trading volume; options trading volume grew by 55%; on-chain ecosystem-wise, Gate Layer processed over 36.3 million transactions, an increase of more than 11% month-over-month.

Funds accumulation and wealth management also performed steadily. The stablecoin GUSD’s scale grew to over 190 million USD. Against the backdrop of gradually recovering market risk appetite, platform income-generating products continue to attract capital inflows.

In the AI ecosystem layer, Gate completed the V3 architecture upgrade of its AI system in April, building a multi-entry product system of “Web+App+Bot+Independent Site,” and launched features such as in-depth research and intelligent push, promoting AI from a tool-based application to an active decision-making assistant.

Notably, brand building has become a key highlight of this report. Around its 13th anniversary, Gate held multiple large-scale events in Hong Kong, including the “Racing the Future: Cross-border Exhibition at Victoria Harbour,” the 13th Anniversary Blue Carpet Ceremony, and GATE GALA 13th Anniversary Dinner. The Victoria Harbour exhibition attracted over 10,000 visitors on its first day, becoming a city-level hot event; the 13th-anniversary dinner gathered over 300 institutional representatives and industry figures for in-depth discussions on AI, RWA, and multi-asset trends.

In a series of public speeches and presentations, Gate founder and CEO Dr. Han repeatedly shared industry insights. In his anniversary open letter, he stated that the crypto industry is shifting from narrative-driven to infrastructure-driven, emphasizing that future competition will focus more on system capabilities than products. At the Hong Kong Web3 Carnival, he further proposed the “Move Everything On-Chain” concept, pointing out that the key dividing line in future financial systems will no longer be traditional versus crypto, but whether assets are on-chain. Additionally, he mentioned that assets not on-chain will gradually be priced as inefficient assets, and RWA will become the core pathway connecting traditional finance with the crypto world.

During an exchange event at the University of Hong Kong, Dr. Han argued from a competitive logic perspective that the essence of the crypto industry is a resource and time asymmetry game, emphasizing the importance of building first-mover advantages in uncertain cycles. In media interviews, he also pointed out that over the next 1-2 years, the main industry focus will be on RWA, AI, and multi-asset ecosystem integration, and believes AI is gradually evolving from an auxiliary tool to an important participant in trading decisions.

Meanwhile, Gate continues to strengthen its global brand layout. In April, it officially became the official sleeve sponsor of Inter Milan U23 youth team and partnered with the Red Bull Racing F1 team to host VIP viewing events in Miami, expanding global user reach and cultivating a youthful brand image through sports IP. Multiple offline activities and cross-industry collaborations further enhance its connection between Web3 and mainstream culture.

Overall, Gate is leveraging a multi-asset system as its foundation, with AI and on-chain infrastructure as core engines, accelerating its upgrade from a trading platform to a comprehensive digital financial ecosystem. Moving forward, Gate will focus on infrastructure-driven continuous deepening of multi-asset and on-chain integration capabilities, promoting the coordinated development of RWA, AI, and TradFi, and further building an efficient global asset circulation and value connection network.
