Gate, the digital asset trading platform, has released its February 2026 Transparency Report, showing continued growth in overall trading scale and market share. Gate ranks third globally in centralized exchange spot market share and fourth in derivatives. Spot trading volume exceeded $74 billion, up about 11% month-on-month, while derivatives market share reached 11%. Meanwhile, Gate’s TradFi trading system continues to improve, allowing users to trade global traditional financial assets, including forex, metals, indices, commodities, and selected stocks, using USDT as margin within a unified account. The cumulative TradFi trading volume has surpassed $95 billion, with a single-day peak exceeding $12 billion.
Gate also advanced industry engagement and brand building. During Consensus Hong Kong, Gate hosted multiple ecosystem events, and Founder Dr. Han was invited to deliver a keynote on “Intelligent Web3” on the main stage. Additionally, the platform continues to upgrade its cross-exchange trading system and API infrastructure, launching the CrossEx cross-exchange trading system and introducing natural language trading functionality along with 17 MCP tools. On the compliance side, Gate Technology Ltd., Gate’s Malta-based entity, has obtained a Payment Institution (PI) licence from the Malta Financial Services Authority (MFSA) under the EU’s revised Payment Services Directive (PSD2). Overall, Gate is accelerating its development into a comprehensive digital financial platform while driving the convergence of TradFi, Web3, and AI.
