Gate founder and CEO Dr. Han has been featured in an interview with The Economist Enterprise, where he described the company’s shift from a traditional crypto asset trading platform toward a broader financial infrastructure connecting digital assets and traditional finance.
The report said that after 13 years of development and several strategic upgrades, Gate is expanding its role as more traditional financial products move into the digital-asset ecosystem. It specifically cited stocks, ETFs, tokenized assets, foreign exchange and metals as areas that are becoming part of that crossover.
Dr. Han said the issues facing digital-asset platforms now go beyond technology alone and include risk management, user protection and industry regulation.
Product lineup spans tokenized assets, derivatives and equities
On the traditional finance side, the report said Gate has built a multi-layer structure covering tokenized assets, derivatives and native stock trading. Products and services mentioned in the interview include xStocks, Ondo, Gate TradFi, Pre-IPOs, Direct IPO access and Gate Stocks.
Among them, Gate Stocks supports trading in U.S., Hong Kong and South Korean equities. The report said this has lowered the barrier for global users seeking access to traditional financial markets. It also said Gate is continuing to improve around-the-clock trading and liquidity infrastructure to meet demand for cross-market asset allocation.
Compliance, transparency and infrastructure were highlighted
The Economist Enterprise said that as the digital-asset market becomes more institutional, compliance, transparency and infrastructure capabilities are becoming central parts of platform competition.
According to the report, Gate is advancing its compliance footprint across multiple jurisdictions. It has also offered third-party audits and open-source Proof of Reserves since 2020.
Gate is also bringing AI infrastructure into Web3
The report said Gate is introducing AI infrastructure into Web3 through products including Gate AI, Gate MCP and GateClaw. Those products connect AI with trading, wallets and additional services.
In that framing, Gate is positioning itself not only as a trading venue, but as a broader financial infrastructure linking digital assets, traditional finance and AI applications.
