‌GateToken (GT) Q4 2025 Token Burn Successfully Completed, Deflationary Strategy Shows Significant Results‌

During Q4 2025 (October-December), GateToken (GT) on-chain token burn operations were successfully completed. According to official Gate.io announcements, a total of 2,163,900.48229 GT tokens were burned this quarter, which at the time of burning represented the permanent removal of over $26.92 million in circulating assets.

‌
📝Burn Data Overview‌

Quarterly burn volume: 2,163,900.48229 GT

Burn value: Over $26.92 million

Historical cumulative burns: Since the GateChain mainnet launch in 2019, total GT token burns have reached 184,819,426, with estimated value exceeding $1.9 billion

Supply reduction ratio: Approximately 61.6% of the initial 300 million GT total supply

This quarterly burn represents a key initiative in Gate.io's ongoing implementation of a deflationary token economic model, reducing circulating supply to enhance asset scarcity and create long-term value support for GT holders.

‌
💪GT Ecosystem Value Continuously Upgrading‌

As Gate.io's core platform token and GateChain native asset, GT possesses dual attributes as both a utility token and network gas fee token. Ecosystem value enhancement is driven by the following developments:

‌Gate Layer Launch‌: A high-performance Layer 2 network built on OP Stack, significantly improving transaction efficiency

‌Ecosystem Application Matrix‌:

Gate Perp DEX: Decentralized perpetual futures trading platform

Gate Fun: On-chain token issuance and incubation platform

Meme Go: Cross-chain meme token trading and analysis tool

💰GT Token Economic Model

As Gate's official platform token, GT currently has a circulating market cap of $1.025 billion and a fully diluted market cap of $3.066 billion, achieving token deflation and sustained demand through the following mechanisms:

1.Burn Strategy‌

Quarterly Burns‌: Q4 2025 burned 2.16 million GT tokens (valued at over $26.92 million), with cumulative burns of 184 million (61.6% of initial supply).

‌Buyback Mechanism‌: 15% of platform profits used for buyback and burn, 5% for ecosystem R&D, total buyback ratio reaching 20%.

‌

2.Demand Growth‌

‌Gate Layer Ecosystem‌: As the Layer 2 network's gas token, GT demand has surged in applications like Gate Perp DEX and Gate Fun.

‌PoS Staking‌: On-chain yield reaches 10%, far exceeding ETH's 3%, attracting long-term holders.

📈GT Market Performance: Scarcity Supports Value

‌Market Cap Milestone‌: As of April 2025, GT's circulating market cap has surpassed multiple traditional financial derivative tokens.

‌Price Potential‌: Currently BNB market cap is $125 billion, OKB remains at $2.3 billion even after massive one-time burns, considering Gate ranks second globally in spot trading volume, GT market cap should exceed OKB, with corresponding price above $20, current $13 shows significant undervaluation.

So for those holding GT, allow me to say: Happy New Year, get rich quick!
