Gate Launches xStocks Section, Pioneering New Pathways between Crypto and Traditional Finance

In July 2025, Gate, one of the globally leading digital asset trading platforms, announced the official launch of a new trading section featuring xStocks-backed products. This initiative allows users to trade tokenized stock assets using crypto such as USDT, with support for both spot and futures markets. The initial listing includes major tokenized stocks like COINx, AAPLx, NVDAX, and CRCLx, all backed by xStocks and only open to users in designated regions.

Unlike a typical product release, the launch of the xStocks section is seen as a landmark step in Gate’s broader mission to bridge the gap between digital assets and traditional finance. From technical infrastructure to product logic, Gate xStocks section is more than a new pathway. The offering represents a systematic reimagination of what “borderless investing” can look like in the crypto era.

A First in the Industry: Futures Market for Tokenized Stocks

While most platforms are still exploring the tokenization of traditional assets, Gate is the first major crypto platform to integrate the futures market of the xStocks-backed products into its core trading infrastructure. Gate xStocks section enables trading with USDT, offering 24/7 access and on-chain liquidity. It removes structural limitations commonly found in traditional finance, such as work-day trading hours, full-share entry requirements, and prolonged custody cycles.

Users can now trade tokenized stocks AAPLx, TSLAx and NVDAx directly on Gate’s spot market, or utilize leverage and dual-directional strategies on our futures market. This mechanism creates broader accessibility to on-chain users, higher liquidity for relevant tokenized stocks, and an experience tailored to the expectations of modern crypto traders. In practice, Gate xStocks section has demonstrated a smooth and seamless trading experience, receiving positive user feedback.

Built on Technical Integration, Backed by Product Philosophy

The suite of xStocks-backed products is not a simple on-chain replica of traditional stocks. Instead, it’s deeply integrated with Gate’s years of platform experience and technical innovations, including matching engines, risk control, custody architecture, liquidity design and more core modules. The platform adopts tokenization process with robust collateral, ensuring traceability and on-chain verifiability.

Meanwhile, these assets are also available on Gate Alpha, enabling interaction with trading strategies and modular automation. The initial listing includes MSTRx, CRCLx, SPYx, NVDAx, TSLAx, and AAPLx, expanding possibilities for both high-frequency traders and on-chain strategists.

The series of features form a closed-loop system that spans trading interface, target correspondance, cross-chain compatibility, and strategy integration, setting a new benchmark for the crypto trading market.

Bridging Tradition and Innovation: A Structural Transformation in Global Finance

Since upgrading to Gate.com in early 2025, Gate has advanced its vision of becoming a “next-generation crypto exchange.” With over 30 million registered users and top-tier global rankings in both spot and futures market, the platform is taking the lead in advancing the evolution of crypto financial infrastructure.

The launch of Gate xStocks section is a key milestone in this strategic evolution. It’s not just an expansion of trading features, but a redefinition of access itself. Gate is constructing a new interaction model that enables users to tap into the global financial market under a unified mechanism. The new model redefines how users connect to financial markets, moving away from centralized institutions and empowering broader participation, understanding, and autonomy under a more transparent and open framework.

This marks a pivotal shift where decentralized finance moves beyond application-level innovation toward deeper institutional integration. Gate’s underlying framework is no longer a collection of technical tools, but a structured model for bridging the long-missing institutional interface between traditional finance and on-chain networks. Its openness, interoperability, and scalability lay the groundwork for global financial connectivity, regulatory collaboration, and ecosystem-level integration.

Redefining Connectivity and Financial Order for Future

As the digital finance landscape rapidly evolves, Gate is positioning the xStocks section as a breaking point for deeper synergy between traditional and decentralized markets. From product architecture to technical support, from interaction logics to infrastructure design, the platform delivers a viable, replicable model to answer a key question of our time: How can traditional finance truly embrace the future of blockchain?

Looking ahead, with more legacy financial mechanisms set to migrate on-chain, Gate is opening a new gateway to global financial transformation. And the launch of Gate xStocks section is simply the beginning.
