Gateway to Learning

As major crypto exchanges increasingly expand their traditional asset offerings through quote based CFD modules, Gate not only provides traditional asset CFDs, but also brings stocks, metals, indices, FX, and commodities into a unified orderbook perpetual futures system. This structure retains the same matching and funding rate framework used in crypto perpetuals. With transparent order matching, visible depth, and maker and market making functionality, Gate strengthens market driven price discovery and liquidity structure transparency for traditional assets, making it easier to reuse APIs and quantitative strategies across multiple asset classes. As competition in traditional asset trading shifts from product expansion toward trading mechanisms and infrastructure, Gate’s unified orderbook architecture across asset categories provides greater runway for further multi asset expansion and a more standardized future trading model for real world assets.
