Gate launches direct access to IPOs, creating a one-stop investment ecosystem covering Pre-IPO to stock trading
Cryptocurrency exchange Gate.io has recently launched a new service called “Direct IPO” (IPO Access), aiming to allow users to directly participate in the initial public offerings (IPOs) of popular global companies.

Gate officially launches “Direct IPO (IPO Access)”, opening up a new channel for users to participate in the IPOs of popular global companies. Users can submit an intent-to-subscribe application before the company’s official listing, and after the listing, quickly receive spot shares, enabling a one-stop investment experience from IPO subscription to trading in the secondary market. The first Direct IPO offering is the highly anticipated aerospace and commercial space company SpaceX, providing users with a new pathway to seize the opportunity of high-quality company listings. Users can participate in subscriptions in the “Gate IPOs” section, with support for payment using USDT. The platform uses a weighted allocation mechanism: the earlier users complete their subscriptions, the higher their allocation weight. After a successful IPO allocation, the shares will be directly distributed to users’ Gate stock accounts on June 12, allowing users to hold and trade real U.S. stocks without needing to open additional accounts.
With the launch of Direct IPO, Gate has further refined a full-chain investment product ecosystem covering Pre-IPO, IPO, and stock trading, helping users capture growth opportunities at different stages of a company’s development. Currently, Gate Stocks (App v8.21.5 and above) supports trading more than 10,000 U.S. mainstream stocks and ETFs using USDT, covering major markets such as NYSE, Nasdaq, NYSE Arca, NYSE American, and BATS, and supporting fractional share trading with a minimum purchase of 0.01 shares. In the future, Gate will continue to expand its map of high-quality global assets, enrich users’ options for participating in international capital markets, and promote deep integration between digital assets and traditional financial markets.
