Gate founder Dr. Han: The crypto market will enter a new cycle of institutionalization and structural maturity in 2025.
PANews reported on December 24 that, according to a recent interview with BeInCrypto, Gate founder and CEO Dr. Han described 2025 as a pivotal year of transformation for the crypto industry, showcasing trends including a tightening regulatory environment, an influx of institutional funding, and the rise of on-chain trading platforms. These key factors are profoundly changing the market landscape.
Dr. Han points out that the retail investor force that drove past bull markets has gradually shifted to professional traders and institutional investors. To address this trend, Gate upgraded its infrastructure, launching the CrossEx cross-exchange trading and clearing platform to achieve unified execution and collateral management across multiple platforms. Over the past year, professional users have increased their activity in perpetual contract trading, while retail trading has increasingly moved on-chain to access early-stage tokens and Meme tokens. In response, Gate has built Web3 tools such as Gate Layer, Gate Perp DEX, and Gate Fun, enabling users to participate in decentralized markets without sacrificing execution speed and reliability. Security and transparency remain at the core of Gate; the platform continues to provide Merkle tree-based asset proofs combined with zero-knowledge proofs, covering approximately $12 billion in assets, and employs a multi-party computation (MPC) vault system, allowing users direct control over their funds.
Looking ahead to 2026, Dr. Han emphasized that Gate will focus on lowering the barrier to entry for users on CEX and DEX platforms. Artificial intelligence is expected to be a key tool, helping users complete trades efficiently without the need for complex interfaces.
