According to the latest “Q1 2025 Crypto Industry Report” published by CoinGecko on April 17th, the overall market sentiment has shifted towards a more cautious stance, with a notable 32.7% decline in the open interest (OI) of perpetual contracts across leading exchanges. However, Gate.io has bucked this trend, maintaining a steady OI that has surged from 7% to 16%, effectively more than doubling its quarterly share. Furthermore, the report highlights Gate.io’s significant gains in market presence, as its perpetual contract trading volume has consistently outperformed competitors, allowing it to climb the market share rankings alongside Coinbase International.
Gate.io’s recent Q1 quarterly report substantiates these findings, showcasing robust growth across various metrics including contract product experience, asset security, and user engagement. Notably, the platform reported an impressive 31% increase in contract trading volume compared to the prior quarter, reflecting a surge in both the number of active traders and overall trading activities. Additionally, Gate.io’s native token, GT, has achieved a remarkable milestone, reaching a new all-time high of $25.96 in 2025, marking a substantial 70% increase since the year commenced.
