"Small steps don't accumulate unless they reach a thousand miles."

What is the concept of five million?

It's roughly 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 at Gate officially reached this figure. The number itself isn't the most important — anyone can choose a large number to tell a story. What's important is what happened behind these five million.

This sector has gone through several "moments of death": the collapse of Mt.Gox, the burst of the ICO bubble, 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 stable from the start.

User volume is just a result. Reaching five million reflects a simple but challenging 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 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 start.
