“Small steps don’t accumulate unless they reach a thousand miles.”

What is the concept of five million?
It’s nearly eight times the population of Singapore, and more than the population of many medium-sized European countries. By March 2026, the number of registered users on Gate officially reached this figure. The number itself isn’t the most important — anyone can choose a large number to tell a story. What matters is what happened behind these five million.
This industry has gone through several “moments of death”: the Mt.Gox collapse, the ICO bubble burst, the FTX explosion... Each cycle of restructuring led to the fall of platforms that seemed invincible. And what remains isn’t always the largest in size, but the most fundamentally stable.
User volume is just a result. Reaching five million reflects a simple but difficult-to-commit-to principle: users first, security as a priority, and continuous product development. Currently, Gate’s reserve coverage reaches 125%, and trading volume in spot and derivatives markets ranks third globally in the long term. These numbers together not only represent size but also the choice of a platform in a highly competitive market for a tougher, but more resilient path.
Numbers will continue to grow. More importantly, can Gate make the genuine users behind these five million accounts feel that their assets are safe here, that they are increasing, and that they are being taken seriously?
And as always, this is just a good beginning.
