Gate Launches IPO Access with the First Offering Featuring SpaceX

Gate has officially launched IPO Access, a new offering that enables users to participate in initial public offerings (IPOs) of globally recognized companies. Through IPO Access, users can submit a subscription Expression of Interest before a company’s public listing and have opportunities to receive spot shares shortly after the stock begins trading, providing a new way to access the growth potential of leading businesses. 

As an important addition to Gate Stocks, IPO Access further improves the platform’s investment ecosystem, bridging opportunities from pre-listing participation to post-listing stock trading within a unified investment experience.

Upon successful allocation after the IPO concludes, Gate users can directly enter the Gate Stocks product to trade real shares (the stock trading feature is now supported in App v8.21.5 and above), providing users with a complete journey from IPO subscription to stock trading.

Currently, Gate Stocks allows users to directly use USDT to trade over 10,000 mainstream U.S. stocks and ETFs. This service covers major U.S. securities exchanges and liquidity networks, including the NYSE, Nasdaq, NYSE Arca, NYSE American, and BATS, and supports fractional share trading with a minimum purchase of 0.01 shares. As its stock services continue to evolve, Gate is further expanding access to global investment opportunities while improving multi-market asset accessibility and trading efficiency.

Access High-Profile IPO Opportunities Before Listing

An Initial Public Offering (IPO) represents a significant milestone in a company’s growth journey and an important opportunity for investors to gain exposure to promising businesses. However, traditional IPO participation often involves high account-opening requirements, geographic restrictions, and complex application processes.

IPO Access is designed to simplify this experience. Through Gate, users can participate in the subscription process before a company’s public listing, receive allocated shares after the IPO, and seamlessly hold or trade those shares through Gate Stocks. The result is a streamlined investment journey from IPO subscription to secondary-market trading.

The first offering available through Gate IPO Access features SpaceX, the world-renowned commercial aerospace giant. As one of the world’s most closely watched private technology companies, SpaceX is widely recognized for its advancements in reusable rocket technology, the Starlink satellite internet network, and its long-term vision for the space economy. SpaceX has attracted significant interest from global investors and is widely viewed as one of the most anticipated future public listings.

This session of SpaceX IPO Access exclusively accepts USDT for the Expression of Interest (EOI). The minimum subscription amount is 100 USDT, with a maximum cap of 500,000 USDT per user.

This IPO Access features an “Expression of Interest (EOI)” mechanism. Allocation weights will be calculated based on users’ average locked amounts during the EOI period; early participation and sustained locking will increase the likelihood of securing a higher allocation weight. Depending on the final project issuance and the actual allocation quota secured by the platform, users may receive a full, partial, or zero allocation of shares. Final allocation results will be calculated and distributed in accordance with platform rules.

An Integrated Experience of Pre-IPO, IPO Access and Stock Trading

With the introduction of IPO Access, Gate is continuing to build an investment ecosystem that supports different stages of a company’s growth cycle. Users seeking earlier-stage opportunities can explore Gate’s Pre-IPO offerings, while IPO Access focuses on companies approaching public listing, providing participation opportunities closer to their anticipated market debut.

Once an IPO allocation is completed, the corresponding stocks will be distributed directly to users’ Gate Stocks Accounts, achieving a seamless transition from subscription to active trading. Users can complete subscription, holding, and subsequent trading, all within a single platform without cross-platform operations. Through deep integration with Gate Stocks, IPO Access effectively lowers the barrier to entry for highly sought-after global IPOs, delivering a more convenient, high-efficiency, one-stop investment experience while completing a robust product ecosystem that spans from Pre-IPO and IPO to live secondary trading.

Expanding Access to Global Investment Opportunities

As the convergence of digital assets and traditional financial markets continues to accelerate, Gate remains committed to broadening access to stocks, ETFs, and other asset classes through a unified investment platform. Looking ahead, Gate plans to introduce additional investment opportunities and high-quality assets, providing users with more ways to participate in global capital markets and build diversified portfolios.
