Odaily News In a recent interview on Cointelegraph's program Chain Reaction, Lucas Sum, Head of Stock Market Development at Gate, stated that crypto and stocks are quietly converging and increasingly becoming part of the same macro trade. He pointed out that the correlation between the crypto market and the Nasdaq index is currently higher than the five-year average, with the correlation coefficient once exceeding 0.8. Market sentiment is generally cautious at present, with more funds staying in low-risk assets such as stablecoins, as investors await clearer catalysts.Lucas Sum believes that the core narrative of the next market cycle may no longer be "crypto vs. Wall Street," but rather traditional financial assets accelerating their entry into the digital financial system through on-chain infrastructure. The scale of RWA has grown from approximately $12 billion a year ago to over $30 billion, while the scale of tokenized U.S. Treasury bonds has also reached approximately $15 billion, indicating that on-chain financial infrastructure continues to expand. Meanwhile, macro liquidity, real yields, and regulatory clarity remain key factors influencing the performance of risk assets. Against this backdrop, investors' focus is shifting from single-asset allocation to coordinated allocation across multiple asset classes. Lucas Sum noted that Gate is continuously expanding its stock business, currently covering U.S., Hong Kong, and Korean stock markets, with plans to extend further into more global markets to provide the necessary infrastructure for multi-asset investment.
According to Odaily, CryptoQuant's latest report, "Wall Street, Always On," shows that in July 2026, trading volume for traditional financial stock perpetual contracts on crypto exchanges reached approximately $250 billion, up about 17 times from April.

CryptoQuant stated that compared to the episodic growth seen on some platforms, Gate's sustained growth better reflects the continuous penetration of traditional financial asset trading demand into crypto trading infrastructure, "which makes Gate an exchange worth watching in the crypto-stock race."CryptoQuant indicated that crypto trading platforms are gradually becoming 24/7 trading gateways connecting Crypto and Wall Street, with trading demand from traditional stock markets accelerating its extension into crypto infrastructure. As Gate continues to expand its diversified asset services, including stocks and ETFs, CFDs, Pre-IPOs, direct IPOs, and tokenized securities like gStocks, the platform is further strengthening the connection between traditional financial assets and digital asset trading ecosystems, providing global users with a more flexible and efficient multi-asset trading experience.

: Digital asset trading platform Gate has announced that it will open subscriptions for the second phase of its Pre-IPOs project, OpenAI (OPENAI), from July 15, 2026, 15:00 to July 17, 2026, 15:00 (UTC+8), supporting participation with both USDT and GUSD. The total subscription value for the project is approximately $20 million, with 27,700 OPENAI asset certificates issued at a price of 1 OPENAI = $722. The minimum investment is 100 USDT or 100 GUSD, with implicit handling fees and custody costs waived. OpenAI, driven by products like ChatGPT, is advancing generative AI development and has received investments from Microsoft and others, with an implied market valuation of approximately $895 billion.The OPENAI asset certificate is a pre-IPO mirror note for OpenAI, designed to reflect the company's value before and after its public listing. Gate will hedge its exposure by acquiring the corresponding stocks and will offer pathways including pre-market trading, long-term holding, and future conversion into underlying stock assets, stock tokens, or USDT. Allocations are calculated based on the "average hourly locked amount"; the earlier the participation and the longer the lock-up period, the higher the weight.

on-chain investigator ZachXBT stated that the LAB token has fallen from $14 to under $2 in the past 24 hours, a drop of approximately 85%, with its fully diluted valuation (FDV) shrinking sharply from around $14 billion.ZachXBT expressed disappointment that Binance, Bitget, and Gate did not take proactive measures to prevent price manipulation. He stated that if centralized exchanges truly valued user interests, they should at least return profits from accounts suspected of market manipulation to users.He also pointed out that LAB investors were originally scheduled to begin unlocking tokens later this month, but the vesting schedule has been repeatedly modified. Insiders have long controlled nearly the entire circulating supply and have used market makers to carry out extreme price manipulation on centralized exchanges. Therefore, he "does not recommend trading LAB under any circumstances."

The report notes that as more traditional financial products — including stocks, ETFs, tokenized assets, forex, and metals — enter the digital asset ecosystem, Gate is leveraging its multi-asset product layout and global infrastructure development to further bridge the gap between crypto finance and TradFi.

Among these, Gate Stocks now supports stock trading in the U.S., Hong Kong, and South Korea, significantly lowering the barrier for global users to participate in traditional financial markets. Meanwhile, Gate continues to enhance its 24/7 trading and liquidity infrastructure to meet the cross-market asset allocation needs of users worldwide.The Economist Enterprise also pointed out that as the digital asset market moves further toward institutionalization, compliance, transparency, and infrastructure capabilities are becoming key components of platform competitiveness.

Digital asset platforms are transforming from single-purpose trading venues into comprehensive financial infrastructure that connects different financial products, markets, and forms of value.He noted that as digital asset services further penetrate the traditional financial sector, secure, transparent, compliant, and reliable infrastructure will become the core foundation for the industry's long-term development.

Giovanni Cunti, CEO of Gate Europe, stated that some crypto companies which have already obtained licenses under the EU's Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCA) may still exit the EU market due to rising compliance costs. Cunti indicated that stricter regulatory requirements make it more difficult for new entrants to compete, and some licensed companies may not be able to sustain the costs and resources required for ongoing operations under this framework in the long term. MiCA is the EU's regulatory framework for crypto assets. The 18-month transitional period ended on July 1st, and crypto companies serving EU clients must either obtain authorization or cease providing regulated services. Binance failed to obtain a MiCA license before the deadline. Last Friday, the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) added 14 crypto asset service providers (CASPs) to its register, bringing the total number of authorized companies to 294. Cunti noted that the number of market operators in Europe has already decreased from thousands to hundreds.

Regarding the previous incident where Gate user assets were stolen, on-chain detective ZachXBT stated that the relevant funds have been transferred to an address associated with the crypto escrow platform Xinbi (0xff9c...35fb8), and tracking the flow of funds can no longer help the victims.
Gate issued an announcement regarding the recent "user asset theft incident," sharing internal comprehensive verification results, analysis of the incident's cause, and progress on subsequent handling. Regarding the verification process and key facts, the announcement stated that after comprehensive verification, materials submitted by the applicant at the time, including account information, real-name information, transaction records, Alipay screen recordings, etc., matched the account completely. According to analysis by the technical team, Alipay screen recordings can only be made by the customer themselves or someone with access to the customer's Alipay account. Alipay possesses an extremely strict real-time risk control system; logging into Alipay on a different device will mandate multi-factor authentication. This indicates a situation involving serious leakage of customer information or device compromise. Regarding the Gate platform audit mechanism, the announcement stated that the Company's security unbinding audit mechanism strictly executes the four-fold verification process of "Multi-channel advance notification + System risk control preliminary screening + Manual multi-layer review + Time protection," and never has nor will it approve any security item change application based on a single material alone. Gate always takes information security and customer data protection as the Company's core management requirements. The issue of internal information leakage mentioned by some parties does not exist. Regarding fund recovery and subsequent handling, the announcement stated that Gate processed the matter with the highest priority immediately after the incident occurred, coordinating security, compliance, legal, business, and other teams to carry out on-chain analysis and asset tracking and freezing. It continues to coordinate with third-party institutions such as Tether to advance fund freezing. Subsequently, it will also actively cooperate with judicial authorities in investigations and data collection. Any substantive progress will be communicated immediately.

He pointed out that the correlation between the crypto market and the Nasdaq index is currently higher than the five-year average, with the correlation coefficient once exceeding 0.8. Market sentiment is generally cautious at present, with more funds staying in low-risk assets such as stablecoins, as investors await clearer catalysts.Lucas Sum believes that the core narrative of the next market cycle may no longer be "crypto vs. Wall Street," but rather traditional financial assets accelerating their entry into the digital financial system through on-chain infrastructure. The scale of RWA has grown from approximately $12 billion a year ago to over $30 billion, while the scale of tokenized U.S. Treasury bonds has also reached approximately $15 billion, indicating that on-chain financial infrastructure continues to expand. Meanwhile, macro liquidity, real yields, and regulatory clarity remain key factors influencing the performance of risk assets. Against this backdrop, investors' focus is shifting from single-asset allocation to coordinated allocation across multiple asset classes. Lucas Sum noted that Gate is continuously expanding its stock business, currently covering U.S., Hong Kong, and Korean stock markets, with plans to extend further into more global markets to provide the necessary infrastructure for multi-asset investment.
