Gate ecosystem ignites DeFi media spotlight! The secret behind the 45 million Address rise of 95.7%.

In the past week, the Gate ecosystem has once again become the focus of DeFi media with the astonishing data from its Layer 2 network Gate Layer. The number of on-chain Addresses has exceeded 45 million, rising by 95.7% in a single day. This milestone rise is mainly attributed to the launch of on-chain applications such as Gate Fun and Gate Perp DEX.

At the same time, the on-chain mining staking amount of GT has reached 38,674,858.20 coins, setting a new historical high. Under Gate's "All in Web3" strategy, a more vibrant and promising Decentralized Finance ecosystem is gradually unfolding before the world.

01 Strong data support, Gate ecosystem on-chain activity skyrockets

Analyzing the on-chain data of Gate's recent performance, it is found that its rise is not accidental, but rather a necessary result of the continuous expansion of ecological effects.

On October 10th to 11th, multiple DeFi media platforms reported on the on-chain Address growth situation of Gate Layer.

First, data from October 10 showed that the number of Addresses surpassed 23 million, and then on October 11, this number surged to 45 million, with a 24-hour rise of 95.7%.

This explosive rise directly reflects the market's enthusiastic response to the new products launched by Gate.

During the same period, the on-chain mining staking volume of GT also broke through 38.67 million pieces, demonstrating the high activity of assets within the ecosystem and users' strong confidence in the future prospects of GT.

02 Product matrix improvement, Gate's Decentralized Finance landscape continues to expand

The explosive rise of the Gate ecosystem is inseparable from its increasingly完善 product matrix. These products not only enrich the user experience but also build a strong ecological moat.

Gate Layer: high-performance infrastructure

As a high-performance Layer 2 network independently developed by Gate, Gate Layer is committed to providing convenient on-chain services for users and developers with its design concept of "low threshold, high efficiency, and low cost."

It leverages LayerZero to enable multi-chain interoperability, supporting cross-chain asset transfers with mainstream public chains such as Ethereum, BSC, and Polygon, providing a solid technical foundation for the smooth operation of the entire ecosystem.

Gate Perp DEX: A new experience in decentralized derivatives trading

On September 29, 2025, Gate Perp DEX officially launched, which is a decentralized perpetual contract exchange built on Gate Layer.

The platform supports 447 markets and up to 125 times leverage, featuring cross-chain compatibility and on-chain transparency and security, aimed at providing a trading experience close to mainstream CEX for global users.

Gate Perp DEX introduces various innovative mechanisms:

• High-performance matching engine: Supports high concurrency and low-latency trading, ensuring stable execution even during significant market fluctuations.
• Various order tools: provides limit orders, market orders, conditional orders, and iceberg orders among a variety of ordering methods.
• On-chain transparent and verifiable: All orders and asset changes are recorded on-chain in real-time, ensuring transparency and traceability.

Collaborative Development of Diverse Ecological Applications

In addition to Gate Perp DEX, the Gate ecosystem has also successively launched:

• on-chain launch platform Gate Fun
• All-chain Meme coin real-time trading and monitoring platform Meme Go

These platforms together form the DeFi product matrix of Gate, continuously enriching the practical path of its "All in Web3" strategy.

03 Outstanding market performance, trading volume rise ranks among the top globally

As the ecological products continue to enrich, Gate's performance in trading business is equally remarkable.

According to CoinDesk's latest monthly report, since the beginning of the year, Gate's spot market share has risen the most among major exchanges globally, with a cumulative increase of 2.87%.

Specifically, Gate's spot trading volume in September rose by 20.1% to $117 billion, setting a new annual high, with the spot market share increasing by 1.35% to a historical high of 5.47%.

In terms of the derivatives market, Gate's performance is also impressive. Gate's share in the derivatives market rose by 1.11% to 11.3% in September, with a growth rate second only to Coinbase International, ranking second globally.

This series of data fully reflects Gate's strong market expansion and innovative driving force.

04 GT rise, consolidating its unique Gas token status

With the continuous expansion of the Gate Layer ecosystem, the on-chain demand for GT, as the only Gas token of Gate Layer, continues to rise with the growth of the ecosystem scale.

In the previous Gate strategic upgrade, the application scenarios and value of GT have further expanded. The official launch of the high-performance second-layer network Gate Layer and the decentralized perpetual contract trading platform Gate Perp DEX, the on-chain launch platform Gate Fun, and the full-chain Meme coin real-time trading and monitoring platform Meme Go have all created more use cases for GT.

Analyses indicate that Gate's decentralized exchange is transitioning from a "non-dividend infrastructure" to a "protocol capable of potential cash flow distribution."

Once the premise of revenue sharing is established, the valuation logic of the token will shift from "market sentiment × liquidity dynamics" to "distributable protocol revenue × revenue sharing ratio × price-to-earnings multiple."

05 Compliance process accelerates, global layout steadily advances

As the business grows rapidly, Gate's compliance process is also steadily advancing, laying a solid foundation for its global expansion.

Recently, Gate's Gate Technology Ltd has obtained a MiCA license under the regulation of the Malta Financial Services Authority (MFSA).

At the same time, Gate US has obtained 30 Money Transmitter Licenses, and its compliant operations cover 40 U.S. jurisdictions.

This series of arrangements not only demonstrates Gate's determination to advance the global compliance process but also provides a solid guarantee for its continued and stable development in diverse markets.

06 Media Attention Rising, Decentralized Finance Information Channel Summary

With the vigorous development of the Gate ecosystem, more and more DeFi media have begun to pay attention to and report on its latest developments. For users who want to stay updated on Gate information in a timely manner, they can follow the following types of information channels:

• Professional crypto media: such as Crypto City, ChainCatcher, PANews, etc., providing fast news coverage.
• Data analytics platforms: such as CoinGlass, RootData, etc., provide on-chain data and analysis.
• Official channels: Gate official website and Gate Square, release first-hand information
• Industry research organizations: such as CoinDesk, provide market analysis and industry reports

By obtaining information through multiple channels, one can more comprehensively and timely grasp the latest dynamics of the Gate ecosystem.

Future Outlook

With the gradual clarification of the regulatory framework, the increasing maturity of the technical architecture, and the continuous enrichment of ecological applications, Gate has paved the way for the revaluation of its decentralized exchange token. Some analysts believe that once dividends are realized, the cash flow logic may replace the pure trading volume sentiment and become the core driving factor for valuation.

In the future, can Gate stand out in the fierce competition of Decentralized Finance with its continuously improving product matrix and expanding global layout? Let us wait and see.
