Gate is closing the week from a position of market strength. According to DefiLlama, the exchange recorded over $605 million in net inflows over the past month, ranking third among all centralized exchanges globally — while its 24-hour futures open interest has surpassed $10.59 billion, placing Gate once again among the top three. Against this backdrop of growing market share, the platform has been active across multiple product lines: expanding its equities ecosystem, hitting a record in stable asset subscriptions, and rolling out new events and launchpool campaigns.
Gate Stocks launched an innovation stock trading section this week, extending the platform’s coverage to include companies such as ChangXin Memory Technologies, Unitree Robotics, and CATL. The addition brings the total number of stocks and ETFs available to over 12,540 — spanning U.S., Hong Kong, Korean, and now innovation-tier markets. Alongside the product expansion, RootData has ranked Gate No. 1 globally in its overall derivatives score, awarding 96 points across metrics including futures volume, market share, and liquidity, with Gate’s overall spot score placing No. 2 globally at 79.55 points.
The platform also debuted the first episode of the Gate Stocks video series, featuring Lucas Sum, Head of Market Development, Equities, discussing the convergence between crypto and traditional equity markets. The episode addresses the growing trend of multi-asset investing and Gate’s positioning as a unified interface for digital asset and equity exposure — accessible without switching between platforms.
South Korean semiconductor stocks were among the week’s active movers in Gate’s stock derivatives segment. Samsung Electronics rose 2.42% in 24 hours to $194.04, and SK Hynix climbed 3.26% to $1,162.84. CoinGlass data shows Gate SAMSUNG futures reached $8.37 million in open interest — placing among the top two in the industry — while Gate SKHX futures recorded $23.99 million, ranking among industry leaders.
In the tokenized stocks segment, the 2X Long SNDK Daily ETF (SNXXG/USDT) led single-day gains with a 7.00% rise in 24 hours, followed by SanDisk (SNDKG/USDT) at +3.60% and AXT Inc (AXTIG/USDT) at +3.31%. Gate gStocks supports 24/7 trading with unified account access, offering low-barrier entry points into popular global equities via crypto infrastructure.
Gate also completed cash dividend distributions for 67 U.S.-listed stocks, including Apple (AAPL), Morgan Stanley (MS), Texas Instruments (TXN), and Blackstone (BX). Covering corporate pay dates from August 10 to August 14, dividends were credited in USDT equivalent to eligible users on a pro-rata basis, with no action required from users.
Gate’s yield-bearing stable asset GUSD has hit a record cumulative subscription volume of $257 million. Users holding GUSD earn a 3.8% base APR, with rewards distributed daily and full flexibility on deposits and withdrawals. For participants in the concurrent Gate Launchpool DOS staking campaign, the GUSD pool — now surpassing 93.06 million in total liquid volume — offers an estimated 6.36% staking APR, bringing the combined yield to 10.16%.
Gate Launchpool’s 371st phase runs from August 17 to August 31 (UTC), offering 39,432,177 PIPEDOG tokens to users who stake BTC, ETH, or PIPEDOG.

Gate Events Market expanded its offering with a new esports hub aggregating major competitions across Dota 2, League of Legends, CS2, and VALORANT — providing match data, prediction probabilities, real-time scores, and trade information in a single interface, with event subscription and match notification support.
A new leaderboard rewards system launches alongside the first phase of the Events Points Campaign on August 17 at 10:00 UTC (Gate App v8.32 or above required). The mechanic follows a “Trade to Earn Cards, Scratch to Win, Compete for Points, Weekly Settlement” format, with the top 100 weekly users sharing a Prediction Points prize pool.
Running concurrently through August 31, the “Top Five European Leagues Kickoff Celebration” campaign offers a 200,000 USDT total prize pool for users participating in designated football Event Contracts, with kickoff rewards, loss compensation, and leaderboard incentives available.
