385 stock perpetual contracts: Gate is accelerating the connection between crypto and U.S. stocks

In the past, when people talked about exchanges, their first reaction was often BTC, ETH, and various altcoins.
But things are now changing.
As RWA and TradFi continue to enter the crypto market, stock perpetual contracts are becoming a new driver of trading growth. The latest data shows that as of September 7, Gate had 385 stock-related perpetual contracts, ranking first in the industry by coverage.
More interestingly, Gate is not simply pursuing “more.”
According to relevant data from DefiLlama, among the five stock perpetual contracts with the highest recent trading volumes—SNDK, SKYNIX, SPCX, SOXL, and MU—Gate ranked first in 0.1% order book depth for all five; the combined 2% order book depth of the five assets reached $92.8 million, also ranking first
This shows that platform competition is gradually shifting from “what do I offer?” to “can I make trading smoother for you?”
In fact, Gate has been continuously expanding its stock perpetual products this year. From semiconductors and technology to banking and energy, and then to ETFs, new assets have been added one batch after another. Gate previously also launched perpetual contracts for stocks and ETFs including MUU, XLU, NKE, ABNB, and MAR.
Combined with Gate’s offerings in stock spot trading, stock tokens, and CFDs, an increasingly clear path is emerging: expanding from a single crypto trading platform into a multi-asset trading platform.
In the future, it may become increasingly normal for traders to open one platform and view BTC, Nvidia, semiconductor ETFs, and gold-related assets at the same time.
The boundaries of the market are narrowing, and the boundaries of assets are also being redefined.#Gate股票永续合约覆盖数量行业第一
