Gate 真實股票交易正式推出，打通加密資產與傳統金融市場連接通道

Gate Officially Launches Real Stock Trading, allowing users to directly trade stocks and ETFs from major U.S. securities markets on the platform using USDT. With the official launch of real stock trading services, Gate is further breaking down the barriers between crypto assets and traditional financial markets, accelerating the construction of a unified trading and asset allocation system covering crypto assets, stocks, and global mainstream financial products.

Unlike the widely discussed stock tokenization and RWA mapping models in the current market, Gate's newly launched stock service emphasizes real market access capabilities and a compliant trading framework. Gate Stocks connects directly to major U.S. securities markets by integrating with compliant brokers like Alpaca, which hold U.S. Broker-Dealer licenses and clearing qualifications, providing users with real stock and ETF trading services rather than on-chain mapped assets or tokenized derivatives. Notably, the partner broker for Gate Stocks is a member of the Securities Investor Protection Corporation (SIPC), offering corresponding protection for client securities assets under certain conditions, further strengthening account asset security and investor protection.

In terms of trading asset coverage, compared to most tokenized stock platforms that typically only support a few hundred assets, Gate currently supports over 10,000 stocks and ETF assets, covering major U.S. securities trading markets and liquidity networks including NYSE, Nasdaq, NYSE Arca, NYSE American, and BATS. This provides users with richer and more comprehensive options for global securities asset allocation. Currently, Gate Stocks supports intraday trading, with plans to gradually expand to 24/7 round-the-clock trading, offering global users a more flexible and efficient trading experience.

Relying on a unified crypto asset account system, Gate further bridges digital asset trading and stock investment scenarios. Users can directly use USDT to participate in stock and ETF trading, achieving a more convenient connection between crypto assets and the U.S. securities market. For users who manage their assets with stablecoins over the long term, this also means that the application scenario of USDT is extending from digital asset trading to the realm of global stock asset allocation.

On the user experience front, Gate seamlessly integrates stock trading functionality into its existing App system. Currently, Android users can experience the stock trading feature after updating the Gate App to the latest version, while iOS users can access the service after updating to version 8.21.5. After completing the platform's KYC verification and meeting the access requirements of their region, users can enter the stock section via the TradFi module within the Gate App to view market data, and participate in stock trading after transferring stablecoins through the trading page or asset page. Users can participate in global stock market investments more conveniently without needing to perform additional complex operations, enabling efficient allocation between crypto assets and traditional financial markets.

In terms of product structure, Gate Stocks is independent of the traditional CFD (Contract for Difference) system. Users buy, hold, and sell stock assets through their Gate account, with funds managed separately. Unlike the funding rates in perpetual contracts or the swap fees and overnight holding costs in CFD products, Gate's stock spot trading does not involve funding rates or overnight holding fees, making it more suitable for users looking to allocate to U.S. stock assets for the long term.

The current product only supports intraday market price buy and sell orders. Margin trading and short selling functions will be gradually opened in the future. Additionally, Gate will support one-click transfer of stock assets between brokers in the future, further improving asset transfer efficiency and cross-platform management experience. Furthermore, users can uniformly view and manage information on holdings, profit/loss, fund flows, and corporate actions (such as cash dividends, stock splits, reverse stock splits, etc.) within their accounts, with related income automatically credited to user accounts according to platform rules.

From an industry development trend perspective, crypto platforms are gradually evolving from single digital asset trading venues into comprehensive trading infrastructure connecting global capital markets. Gate's launch of stock trading services not only expands the platform's service boundaries and product capabilities in the traditional financial market but also marks its accelerated efforts to build a unified trading and multi-asset allocation system covering crypto assets, stocks, and more global financial products. In the future, Gate will continue to promote access to more markets, connect global liquidity, and build cross-market trading capabilities, strengthening its long-term positioning as a global asset trading and market access platform.
