Gate.io has summed up the results of the first quarter of 2025, presenting a report reflecting a significant strengthening of its position in the industry. The company recorded growth in key indicators, modernized its infrastructure, expanded its product line, and accelerated global initiatives.
Futures trading volumes increased by 31% compared to the previous quarter. More than 200 new tokens were added to the listing as part of spot trading, which strengthened the platform's leadership in asset diversity. The launch of the "Refer to Earn" program activated user engagement through social networks and interactive mechanics.
Gate.io's native asset GT token reached a record price of $25.96 in January. Its price has increased by 70% in a year. Thanks to the deflationary burn model, the total supply of GT tokens has been reduced by 60%, with over 177 million units worth over $408 million already destroyed.

The institutional segment saw steady growth. Futures and brokerage trading volumes increased, while infrastructure upgrades cut trade execution latency in half.
