Other major assets, including GT, USDC, and XRP, also recorded reserve levels well above full coverage, at 144.82%, 188.67%, and 116.09% respectively, reinforcing the platform’s overall asset protection position.
The company stated that it continues to advance transparency and security standards across the sector through ongoing technological development. Its approach includes early adoption of full-reserve commitments, implementation of zero-knowledge proof mechanisms, verification of cold and hot wallet ownership, and the use of Merkle tree structures and user balance snapshots to enable independent verification.
In parallel, Gate has established a comprehensive protection framework covering trading operations, asset custody, and platform security through internally developed systems, multi-signature storage, and structured vulnerability reward programs.
According to its 2025 annual report, the platform’s global user base is nearing 50 million, with growth observed across both spot and derivatives activity and futures market share reaching double-digit levels.
The company has also expanded income products, asset management services, and new asset distribution models, while accelerating development of decentralized infrastructure in line with its All in Web3 strategy. Looking forward, Gate indicated that reserve transparency and security will remain central to its long-term development objectives, alongside continued investment in technology, ecosystem expansion, and service infrastructure to support a more stable and sustainable digital asset industry.
