📊 Gate Multiple Metrics Trended Up in Q2 Despite Market Downturn
CoinGecko's Q2 report shows the broader market contracted — total crypto market cap fell 12.6%, and CEX spot trading volume dropped 27.9%. Yet Gate posted structural growth across multiple dimensions.
Spot market share climbed from 6.61% in Q1 to 8.01% in Q2, gaining ground even as overall industry trading volume declined. On the institutional front, CryptoQuant data shows Gate ranked #1 globally in average institutional trade size across four core markets: BTC spot, BTC perpetual, ETH spot, and ETH perpetual.
Gate Polymarket stood out during the World Cup, with weekly trading volume exceeding $100 million — ranking first among all Polymarket partner channels. Gate Token's Q2 on-chain burn removed 2.57 million GT, bringing the cumulative total to over 190 million GT — roughly 63% of total supply, worth over $1.31 billion.
While the market trended downward, Gate moved upward on three fronts: trading depth, on-chain growth, and tokenomics.
