The total token supply has been significantly reduced by approximately 63.32% from the initial 300 million tokens.As the sole Gas token for the Gate Layer, GT's usage frequency continues to rise. As the underlying infrastructure, the Gate Layer provides high-performance network support for applications such as Gate Perp DEX, Gate Fun, Gate Meme Go, and Gate Swap. Furthermore, Gate is continuously enriching its product ecosystem. Gate Stocks has established a 7×24 hour trading service system covering the three core markets of US stocks, Hong Kong stocks, and Korean stocks, encompassing over 12,500 global stocks and ETF assets. It supports fractional share trading starting from as low as 0.01 shares and provides entitlements to stock dividends. The platform also supports cross-broker transfer of US and Hong Kong stocks, and facilitates corporate actions such as stock splits and reverse stock splits, further enhancing the stock investment service experience.

Concurrently, Gate is driving the coordinated development of infrastructure and applications including Gate for AI Agent, GateClaw, Gate.AI, and GateRouter, leading to a simultaneous increase in on-chain transaction and interaction demand. Gate will continue to implement its long-term, stable GT burn mechanism, fostering a tighter positive feedback loop between the token's economic model and real usage demand alongside ecosystem expansion.
