Licenses
Regulatory licenses, registrations, and approvals
#Gate全球合规版图扩展 For ordinary traders, the most direct significance of compliance is that a clear regulatory authority is responsible for your account and assets. If something goes wrong, you at least know whom to contact and which rules apply.
Gate’s compliance coverage extends to 81 regulated jurisdictions worldwide. Its entities have obtained a MiCA crypto-asset service license and a PSD2 payment institution license in Malta, a full virtual asset service operating license from VARA in Dubai, and completed digital currency exchange service registration in Australia. These credentials cover areas including crypto-asset trading and custody, digital currency services, and payments. In other words, it hasn’t just obtained a few licenses; it is building a foundation for long-term operations. However, having more licenses doesn’t mean the platform is available in every region. Which licensed entity applies depends on the access requirements in your country or region.
When choosing an exchange, focus on three things
Regulatory credentials: First confirm whether the exchange is available in your country or region and which licensed entity applies.
Asset security: Pay close attention to whether user assets are held in segregated custody and whether independent audits and proof of funds are available.
Trading experience: Market depth, fees, supported coins, and withdrawal speed determine your actual trading costs.
Of these three, regulatory credentials and asset security are the baseline. No matter how extensive the product offerings are, if the safekeeping of funds isn’t transparent, the risk falls on users.
So a more practical order of assessment is: Can you use it? → Where are your funds held? → Who is responsible if something goes wrong? → Is it easy to trade?
Gate has all these user needs in mind, so you can trade with peace of mind!
