On asset transparency, Gate's latest Proof of Reserves report indicates total platform reserves of $8.688 billion, a 5.7% increase from the prior period. Customer net assets were $7.332 billion, resulting in an overall reserve ratio of 118.49%. Reserve ratios for BTC and ETH stood at 121.60% and 123.78%, respectively, with several major assets maintaining excess reserves.
In integrated financial services, Gate Money launched in October, combining global accounts, fiat currencies, digital assets, stocks, ETFs, gold, and payment services within the Gate App. Eligible users in supported regions can open bank accounts in their own names, facilitating cross-border payments and multi-asset management.
The platform now enables cross-border deposits and withdrawals via SWIFT in four fiat currencies: USD, EUR, GBP, and AED. Over the same period, Gate Card enhanced its auto top-up feature, linking Spot accounts, Gate Money, Simple Earn, and stock accounts, with automatic transfers across 14 assets, expanding use cases connecting asset management to daily spending.
Gate's traditional finance business also grew.

The average daily value of assets managed by AI-generated trading bot strategies increased by 80.57% month-over-month.
In global brand development, Gate maintained a strong international presence at TOKEN2049 Singapore in October.
Gate Founder and CEO Dr. Han delivered a keynote on the event’s main stage, officially introducing Gate Money and outlining the integrated financial services vision of “One Gate, Everything Money.” At the event, Gate hosted the Gate Gala 2026 Awards Dinner at the Raffles Hotel Singapore, gathering nearly 300 industry representatives and partners globally. Gate also collaborated with the Oracle Red Bull Racing F1 team for driver meet-and-greets, private sessions with team executives, and VIP hospitality during the Singapore Grand Prix.
