Gate has 45 million registered users, and its founder Lin Han
believes that this is in no small part due to its focus on
security, transparency and reliability.
For those who are unfamiliar with your company, could you
provide some background information?
Gate's story really started with a simple problem: in the
early days of crypto, there were very few platforms that were
secure, transparent, and reliable. I originally built Gate, back
then known as Bter, to solve that pain point. It was essentially a
one-man operation at the beginning. I wrote the code, handled
customer support, moderated the community, everything.
As we grew from those early beginnings, a series of important
milestones shaped who we are today. One of the most significant was
our decision to make security and transparency the core of
Gate's identity. Gate is the first mainstream cryptocurrency
exchange to commit to 100% reserves. It also pioneered the adoption
of zero-knowledge proof
