Gate Launches GUSD: A Stable New Investment Option Anchored to Real-World Assets. Gate has officially launched its new investment certificate, GUSD . As a digital investment channel backed by real-world assets such as US Treasury bonds (2 RWA), GUSD not only brings users low-risk, stable returns but also introduces the stable returns of traditional finance into the crypto world through blockchain technology, becoming an important bridge connecting TradeFi and DeFi, providing users with a lower-risk, more stable asset allocation option. With the launch of GUSD , Gate has fully opened trading, deposit, and related investment functions. Users can directly exchange USDT for GUSD in the spot market, or mint GUSD from USDT or USDC at a 1:1 ratio through the platform's "Earn On Chain" page. Therefore, whether users hold USDT and want to trade flexibly in the spot market or choose to mint GUSD through RWA for stable returns, they can easily obtain GUSD and find suitable use cases according to their needs. GUSD will also be supported as a unified account margin from the start of trading. Since August 29, 2025, Gate officially opened trading for major cryptocurrency pairs and launched the GUSD flexible investment product, further expanding the circulation and application of GUSD. Gate Launchpool simultaneously launched its first GUSD staking pool, allowing users to share CELB token rewards by staking GUSD, with an estimated annualized return of up to 365%. In addition, GUSD lending and CandyDrop features have also been launched. When conditions are right, Gate will also collaborate with high-quality projects to launch GUSD staking pools, bringing more liquidity incentives to attract market attention. Unlike stablecoins that only serve as a medium of exchange, GUSD is itself an investment certificate with appreciation potential, its returns derived from the interest distribution of the underlying RWA assets. Users do not need to receive daily interest during the holding period; instead, they receive their principal and accumulated returns in a lump sum upon redemption. For example, if a user invests 100 USDT to mint GUSD, and has accumulated a 20% return upon redemption, they will directly receive 120 USDC. This mechanism endows GUSD with not only stability but also growth over time. While USDT holders' assets remain unchanged if they merely participate in market trading, GUSD holders are essentially indirectly holding a portfolio of appreciating US Treasury bonds. Gate stated that as the product expands, GUSD's total assets will soon exceed $100 million, establishing a more solid market foundation. Simultaneously, the platform will gradually disclose reserve certificates and details of its partnerships with custodian institutions, ensuring that all GUSD issuances are backed by sufficient real-world assets and guaranteeing 100% reserves. Upon redemption, users can exchange GUSD for USDC, which can then be converted into USDT or other currencies, enhancing the credibility and transparency of the product's peg to US dollar assets. With over $4 billion in assets under management and a long history of compliant operations, Gate provides a solid guarantee for the security and transparency of GUSD. Compared to RWA products from leading platforms like Binance, GUSD not only maintains the same underlying logic but also offers users greater flexibility in its design: supporting both USDT and USDC minting, making it more convenient for global users. Gate's GUSD provides a fresh answer to the long-standing question of "how to obtain stable returns in the crypto world." It truly makes stablecoins a robust, transparent, and sustainable digital wealth management option. As trading pairs, lending, savings accounts, and staking become more sophisticated, GUSD is expected to become the preferred tool for more users to allocate assets and achieve long-term value appreciation.
