Gate launches new stock-linked crypto trading products on July 14-15, 2026

Gate added five stock-zone perpetual contracts, 16 gStocks tokenized securities and an airdrop campaign, while separately announcing the July delisting of 25 unrelated tokens and related service suspensions.

Fact Check
Gate's official announcements (articles 100644 and 100663) directly confirm the five USDT-margined perpetual contracts in the stock futures zone (July 14) and the gStocks tokenized securities for spot trading (July 15). PANews independently corroborates the perpetuals and the 'eighth-period' new-token airdrop campaign. The claim's core substance is accurate. Minor inaccuracies in the claim's phrasing: 'July 16' is not supported (perps launched July 14, gStocks July 15), and the campaign is an 'eighth period' airdrop rather than an 'eighth contract.' These are peripheral wording issues that do not undermine the substantive claim.

Summary

Gate said it expanded its stock-linked crypto offerings with five USDT-margined stock-zone perpetual futures contracts that began trading at 06:00 UTC on July 14, 2026, and 16 gStocks tokenized securities for spot trading at 08:00 UTC on July 15, 2026. The perpetual listings are BOT, INTW, SNXX, XBI and APP, with long and short positions and selectable leverage from 1x to 20x, while the gStocks spot listings are VOOG, IVVG, CATG, BACG, LRCXG, COSTG, UNHG, GEG, CVXG, KOG, PGG, HSBCG, HDG, ARMG, NFLXG and GSG, all paired against USDT. Gate said gStocks are fully backed 1:1 by the underlying assets and tradable 24/7, though some services may be restricted in certain regions. Separately, Gate said the eighth round of its contract stock-zone new-token airdrop campaign would run from July 14 at 16:00 to July 23 at 16:00 (UTC+8). In a separate July 15 notice, Gate also said it would delist 25 unrelated tokens across spot, grid trading, Simple Earn, margin trading and perpetual futures, with futures moving to reduce-only on July 16 and broader trading services ending on July 22.

Terms & Concepts
  • perpetual futures: Futures contracts with no expiry date.
  • USDT-margined: Contracts collateralized and settled in USDT.
  • tokenized securities: Digital tokens representing traditional securities and, in Gate's case, described as fully backed 1:1 by the underlying assets.
