Gate’s New Listing: Stock Token Dynamic Roundup — April’s Trending Assets and Market Performance at a Glance
In April 2026, Gate’s stock token product line saw intensive updates and feature upgrades. From speeding up the expansion of contract underlying assets, to extending the on-chain liquidity ecosystem, and to the official launch of innovative Pre-IPO products, Gate is providing global crypto traders with unprecedented channels to access traditional finance.
New Product Highlights: Over 30 Stocks and ETF Perpetual Contracts Added in Q1
As of April 13, Gate has gradually launched more than 30 perpetual contract products for stocks and ETFs in 2026, covering multiple sectors including tech giants, aerospace and defense leaders, consumer goods giants, and core ETFs.
January 29, Gate first launched perpetual contracts for 10 U.S. stocks, including MSFT (Microsoft), IBM, INTC (Intel), MCD (McDonald’s), CSCO (Cisco), ASML (ASML), LLY (Eli Lilly), MRVL (Marvell Technology), UNH (UnitedHealth Group), and ARM (Arm). The contracts are settled in USDT and support 1–20x leverage for long and short positions.
January 30, Gate immediately launched perpetual contract trading for 11 tokenized contracts, including PEP (Pepsi), GE (General Electric Aerospace), AVGO (Broadcom), IAU (iShares Gold Trust), PG (Procter & Gamble), KO (Coca-Cola), LMT (Lockheed Martin), AMD (Advanced Micro Devices), IEFA (iShares MSCI Core U.S. IMI Developed Markets ETF), TLT (iShares 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF), and AGG (iShares Core U.S. Aggregate Bond ETF).
February 6, MU (Micron Technology), COHR (Coherent), and LITE (Lumentum) were launched—three more U.S. stock perpetual contracts—further enriching trading under the technology sector.
March 3, Gate globally launched live trading of perpetual contracts for RTX (Raytheon), GD (General Dynamics), NOC (Northrop Grumman), BA (Boeing), TSM (TSMC), WMT (Walmart), and COST (Costco). On the same day, the index section also launched live trading of perpetual contracts for GER40 (Germany DAX 40 Index), expanding tradable underlyings from individual stocks to core stock indices.
March 4, SNDK (SanDisk) perpetual contracts began live trading.
The dense schedule of product launches has made the underlying assets in Gate’s stock contract section even more diverse, giving traders with different sector preferences more options for leveraged trading.
Performance of Popular Underlyings: Tech Giants Lead, AI Track Continues to Attract Capital
NVIDIA (NVDAX): AI Chip Leader Maintains Strong Momentum
As of April 13, 2026, the tokenized stock NVDAX on Gate is currently trading at around $185. Over the past 24 hours, it is down 0.5%, and it remains in a high-level consolidation pattern. According to CoinMarketCap data, the current circulating supply of NVDAX is 241,200 tokens, and the circulating market cap is $44.22 million.
The key driving force behind the strength in NVDAX’s price comes from NVIDIA’s stellar performance in the U.S. stock market. On April 10, NVIDIA’s stock price rose by about 1%, closing at $183.94, marking its seventh consecutive day of gains and setting the longest winning streak since November 2023. On that day, NVIDIA topped the U.S. stock trading volume list as well, with trading volume of $21.115 billion.
In contract trading, NVIDIA (NVDAX) contracts on Gate have an open position of about 10.4k NVDAX, with a 24-hour trading volume of about $1.27 million, far ahead among major trading platforms.
Tesla (TSLAx): High-Liquidity Star Underlying
Tesla stock token TSLAx has consistently maintained high liquidity. As of April 2026, TSLAx’s total asset value is already approximately $78 million, with more than 20,000 holders. Based on Gate market data, as of April 13, TSLAx’s latest quoted price remains stable around $345, and intraday fluctuations are highly correlated with Tesla’s traditional stock price in the market.
Tech Giants Matrix: AAPLx, METAX, and Others Remain Active
In addition to the above underlyings, tech giants such as Apple (AAPLx), Microsoft (MSFTUSDT), and Amazon (AMZNx) also maintain steady trading volume. After Meta’s stock token METAX released its January 2026 earnings report, its intraday gain on the Gate platform briefly expanded to 7%, fully demonstrating the unique advantage of stock tokens in capturing market opportunities during earnings season.
Recent Major Developments: Three April Milestone Events
Mantle Network Launches xStocksFi
On April 10, xStocksFi was officially launched on the Mantle network, supported by BackedFi and Flowdesk. As one of the first stock tokenized projects to achieve on-chain liquidity, users can trade major global assets around the clock via the Fluxion network, including 10 top U.S. stocks such as TSLAx, NVDAx, AAPLx, and METAx.
Relying on institutional-grade infrastructure and dedicated deposit/withdrawal support, Mantle improves the distribution efficiency of real-world assets (RWA), and provides extremely low trading fees and a high-speed execution experience. The official announcement states that the launch of xStocks is only the starting point for expanding the ecosystem, and more features such as xChange and xPoints will be rolled out next.
Gate Officially Launches a Pre-IPO Digital Mechanism
On April 11, Gate officially launched the highly anticipated digital Pre-IPO mechanism. This initiative is described as a frontier approach to integrating crypto and traditional finance, aiming to return early investment rights to retail investors worldwide.
The core mechanism includes: converting Pre-IPO company equity into on-chain digital certificates through smart contracts; users can directly use USDT to subscribe, lowering the minimum investment threshold from millions of dollars to a level acceptable for ordinary retail investors; before the official IPO, the tokens can be traded in Gate’s PreMarket, enabling price discovery as well as early exit or entry.
Gate has launched its first Pre-IPO stock pre-sale contract, SpaceX (SPACEXUSDT). Settled in USDT, it supports 1x to 10x leverage and enables market-based price discovery based on SpaceX’s current Pre-IPO valuation.
TradFi Product Completes a Major Upgrade
In early 2026, Gate officially completed a major upgrade of its TradFi (traditional finance) products, achieving full coverage on both mobile and web platforms. The core logic is to build a multi-asset integrated trading system. Users can trade stock tokens, forex, precious metals, indices, and commodity CFDs (contracts for difference) on a single platform, further reducing operational friction when allocating across markets.
At present, Gate’s stock token product line has expanded from the original xStocks to a dual-product architecture with xStocks and Ondo Stocks running in parallel. Both adopt a full collateral model and are pegged 1:1 to real stock prices, supporting 7×24 nonstop trading.
Market Data: Gate’s Stock Token Section Continues to Lead the Way
As of early 2026, the cumulative trading volume in Gate’s stock token section has exceeded $140 billion, with a monthly market share as high as 89.1%, and market share ranking first in the industry. From early 2025 to February 2026, the cumulative trading volume in Gate’s stock token section has exceeded $140 billion, with more than 298,000 on-chain addresses holding stock tokens globally.
The Gate xStocks section supports spot trading and perpetual contract trading (USDT settled), and provides 1–10x leverage for long and short positions to meet the needs of investors with different risk preferences. Unlike traditional stock trading that only supports one direction, Gate’s contract stock section supports two-way trading—there is profit potential whether the market rises or falls.
Summary
In April 2026, Gate delivered an impressive performance in the stock token space: more than 30 new stock and ETF perpetual contracts were added, achieving coverage across all sectors including tech, defense, consumer, and indices; NVDAX’s price remained stable above $183, with heat in the AI track continuing to build; xStocksFi launched on the Mantle network, and the on-chain liquidity ecosystem reached a new milestone; the Pre-IPO digital mechanism was officially opened, with SpaceX becoming the first unicorn underlying available for participation.
Meanwhile, the cumulative trading volume in Gate’s stock token section has exceeded $140 billion, with a monthly market share as high as 89.1%, maintaining its lead in the industry. Whether you are a leveraged contract trader or a spot investor looking to build long-term allocations to high-quality global assets, Gate’s stock token section provides you with more diverse trading choices.
