Gate founder Dr. Han: Compliance and transparency are the passports for Web3 to enter the real world.

According to Odaily Odaily, Gate founder Dr. Han released an open letter titled "Web3 Is About to Change Everyone's Life" at the end of 2025. In Dr. Han's view, a truly mature Web3 does not mean forcing users to face more complex technology choices, but rather liberating individuals' freedom in asset management and value flow through secure and compliant operations and user-friendly product design.

In 2025, Gate continued to prioritize its reserve mechanism development, providing users with a more verifiable security foundation through a total reserve value of US$11.676 billion, a reserve ratio of 124%, and transparent disclosure covering nearly 500 assets. Simultaneously, Gate continued its compliance progress in major markets such as Dubai, Europe, Australia, and the United States in 2025. Gate Technology FZE obtained a full operating license from the Dubai Virtual Asset Regulatory Authority (VARA); Gate Technology Ltd obtained a MiCA license from the Malta Financial Services Authority, authorizing it to provide cryptocurrency trading and custody services; and Gate US obtained 32 state-level licenses, covering 43 US jurisdictions. Previously, Gate Group also completed the acquisition of a licensed exchange in Japan. This continuously improving compliance framework allows users to focus on long-term asset allocation and independent decision-making without being distracted by platform risks.

At the product level, Gate integrates trading, on-chain wealth management, asset management, and payment capabilities to reduce system fragmentation and operational friction, allowing users to seamlessly use the platform across different scenarios without needing to understand complex technical details. Dr. Han stated that by 2026, Gate hopes to work with the entire industry to turn this freedom from a concept into reality.
