<a href="https://www.gate.com/announcements/article/51495" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Gate</a> has announced a strategic partnership with Alpaca to expand access to real stock trading for eligible users. The collaboration marks another milestone in Gate's ongoing effort to bridge digital assets and traditional financial markets through a unified multi-asset trading experience.
Through this upcoming launch, Gate users will gain access to more than 10,000 stocks and ETFs across major U.S. securities markets, including the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) and Nasdaq. It will support fractional share trading with a minimum purchase of $1. Leveraging Gate's unified account system, users will be able to use USDT to trade stocks and ETFs, creating a more seamless connection between digital assets and traditional financial markets.
Expanding Access to Traditional Financial Markets
Founded in 2013, Gate has grown into one of the world's leading cryptocurrency and integrated financial services platforms, serving more than 54 million users globally. The upcoming launch of stock trading reflects Gate's long-term strategy to build a unified, multi-asset platform that connects digital assets and traditional financial markets.
Traditionally, accessing global equity markets often requires investors to open separate brokerage accounts, complete lengthy onboarding procedures, and manage capital across multiple platforms.
To address these challenges, Gate has expanded beyond its core digital asset offering to build a more comprehensive financial ecosystem. The upcoming launch of its stock trading services represents a significant step toward creating a unified environment where users can access multiple asset classes through a single platform and account structure.
Gate's stock offering will provide access to real stock and ETF trading via regulated market infrastructure, enabling users to participate in traditional financial markets within a familiar crypto-native experience.
Powered by Alpaca's Brokerage Infrastructure
Gate selected Alpaca as its infrastructure partner for its regulated, self-clearing brokerage framework, API-first architecture, and extensive experience supporting financial platforms globally. As the clearing broker partner, Alpaca will handle the execution, clearing, settlement and custody for orders, as well as handling dividend payments and corporate actions.
The integration enables Gate to efficiently expand its stock trading capabilities while maintaining a seamless user experience. By leveraging Alpaca's brokerage infrastructure, Gate can provide eligible users with access to a broad range of U.S.-listed stocks and ETFs while continuing to strengthen its position as a multi-asset trading platform.
A Shared Vision for Financial Accessibility
<blockquote>
 "The future of finance is becoming increasingly interconnected. As the boundaries between digital assets and traditional financial markets continue to evolve, users are looking for more efficient ways to access a broader range of investment opportunities. Our partnership with Alpaca will help advance that vision by providing seamless access to real stock market investing while maintaining the simplicity and efficiency that users expect from a modern digital asset platform. We believe multi-asset access will play an increasingly important role in the next generation of global financial services," said Dr. Han, Founder and CEO of Gate.

We are pleased to partner with Gate as it expands access to the U.S. stock market and continues building a more comprehensive financial ecosystem for users around the world. Together, we are helping create a more connected and efficient global investment experience."

Advancing Gate's Multi-Asset Strategy
The partnership with Alpaca aligns with Gate's broader strategy to build a unified platform that connects digital assets with traditional financial markets. In addition to its upcoming support for trading across more than 10,000 stock assets, Gate continues to expand its TradFi offering across equities, indices, commodities, metals, and foreign exchange markets, providing users with broader opportunities for cross-market participation and portfolio diversification.
As the convergence between crypto and traditional finance accelerates, Gate remains focused on expanding market access, improving capital efficiency, and delivering a more seamless multi-asset investing experience for users worldwide.
