In the rapidly changing business world, unicorn enterprises are not just a mark of valuation, but a comprehensive embodiment of technology, model, and vision. Over the past 12 years, the cryptocurrency trading platform gate.io has quietly completed a strategic upgrade from a "tool platform" to "infrastructure", growing from a small matching platform to a global leading crypto financial ecosystem.

When a unicorn further breaks through the ceiling, possessing global influence, a larger user base, and business layout, it enters the ranks of super unicorns. Super unicorn enterprises not only have a valuation of billions of dollars but also have the ability to change industry patterns and lead the evolution of next-generation technology or infrastructure.

Gate.io founder Dr. Han said at the brand's 12th anniversary event: "We are moving towards the 'next-generation super unicorn trading platform' - this is not just a leap in valuation, but a comprehensive evolution of capabilities and mission."

Beyond Trading, Building the "Foundation" of the Web3 World

In gate.io's view, the future exchange is not just an intermediary for asset circulation, but a super hub connecting global digital assets and users. It needs to possess five core capabilities:

· Serving billions of users: Whether new users or professional institutions can find a customized experience;
· Supporting millions of assets: Covering mainstream cryptocurrencies, innovative projects, DeFi, Non-Fungible Tokens, and even RWA (real-world asset tokenization);
· Executing billions of transactions: High-frequency trading engine, ensuring extreme stability and second-level matching;
· Custody of trillions of funds: Security is not a slogan, but a collective presentation of code, risk control, and culture;
· Fully compliant with global regulations: Actively connecting with policies and empowering the healthy development of the industry.

Betting on Frontier Tracks: RWA, DeFi, and Blockchain Gaming Layout

Regarding future technological trends, Dr. Han also mentioned in an interview with Cointelegraph Chinese that decentralized finance (DeFi), blockchain games (GameFi), and real-world asset tokenization (RWA) will be important growth points in the crypto industry.

Gate.io has already laid out in these areas: In DeFi, the platform not only continues to build its own ecosystem but also supports cross-chain assets, decentralized trading, and contract security through infrastructure like GateChain, and actively incubates high-quality DeFi projects through channels such as Innovation Zone, LaunchPool, and Gate Ventures; in the blockchain gaming field, gate.io participates in investment and incubation, selects projects, and provides Launchpad, LaunchPool, and NFT market to help excellent game projects quickly reach global players; in the RWA field, the company is accelerating product and service innovation, focusing on the application exploration of compliant stablecoins, tokenized bonds, and tokenized commodities, and will support the circulation and popularization of real-world assets through more flexible listing and trading mechanisms in the future.

Deeply Cultivating "Edge Markets" and Spreading Global Compliance Tentacles

Now that the market pattern tends to stabilize, giants like Binance and OKX occupy the main trading volume, and the strong getting stronger seems to have become a foregone conclusion. However, in this seemingly solidified pattern, gate.io has carved out a different path of breakthrough - entering from edge markets, deeply cultivating global compliance, and building an ecosystem through innovation.

Dr. Han said in an interview with Cointelegraph Chinese: "In a rapidly evolving industry, the head pattern is not immutable. I believe that only by truly understanding user needs, maintaining technological innovation, and adhering to compliance and transparency can we cross cycles and continuously win broader space in the global market, which is also the reason why we always adhere to long-termism."

A super unicorn may not be born in the spotlight. But it will eventually move to center stage at the right moment.
