Gate Stock officially launches Korean stock trading, supporting USDT direct investment in the Korean capital market
Odaily Odaily reports, according to an official announcement, Gate Stock has officially launched Korean stock trading services. Users can now directly use USDT to trade stocks listed on the Korea Exchange (KRX) without needing to open a traditional Korean securities account or exchange for Korean Won themselves, allowing for convenient participation in the Korean capital market. Korean stocks will share a unified stock account system with US stocks and Hong Kong stocks, supporting functions such as buy/sell orders, position management, and profit/loss inquiry, enabling one-stop allocation and management of digital assets and global securities.
In its initial phase, Gate's Korean stock service offers access to the top 1,000 stocks by market capitalization listed on the Korea Exchange (KRX), covering the KOSPI main board and KOSDAQ market. The first batch of trading targets includes representative listed companies in the Korean market such as Samsung Electronics, SK Hynix, NAVER, Hyundai Motor, and Celltrion. Additionally, Gate is hosting a Korean stock trading event from June 22, 16:00 to June 30, 16:00 (UTC+8), allowing participation in investing in popular Korean market stocks and sharing stock rewards worth over $200,000 from Samsung Electronics, SK Hynix, and Hyundai Motor.
With the official launch of Korean stocks, the Gate Stock section has formed a global stock product system covering the three core markets of US stocks, Hong Kong stocks, and Korean stocks. Relying on a unified account structure, users can use USDT to directly invest in global stocks, with support for fractional share trading starting from as low as 0.01 shares. Furthermore, Gate Stock products are now fully integrated into the platform's VIP level system. Users only need to hold $2,000 to upgrade to VIP status, enjoy a minimum exclusive trading fee of 0.023% for stock trading, and receive 1V1 customer manager services, further enhancing the professional investment experience.
