Odaily Planet Daily reported that on Apr. 20, Gate Founder and CEO Dr. Han, during a group media interview at the Rosewood Hong Kong, noted that while prediction markets may seem like a new trade category, their fundamental logic is more akin to an "information pricing" tool.

Odaily News On April 20th, Gate successfully held its "GATE GALA 13" anniversary gala at Hong Kong's Rosewood Hotel. The event brought together over 300 institutional representatives, partners, and industry KOLs from around the globe, creating an enthusiastic atmosphere with intensive networking.

During the event, several members of the core management team delivered keynote speeches on industry trends and platform strategy. Dr. Han, Founder and CEO of Gate, spoke on the theme "How We Grow Together in the Crypto Industry," sharing insights on collaborative development within the crypto sector. He highlighted the convergence trends in key areas such as RWA, multi-asset strategies, and AI. Gate CCO Simon Ren elaborated on "Tokenized RWA Assets Accelerate On-Chain," providing an in-depth analysis of Gate's layout and practices in building a global asset hub against the backdrop of accelerating on-chain adoption of RWA assets.

In a speech titled "Riding the Institutional Wave," Addis Hu, Head of Global Institutions at Gate, emphasized that the trend of global institutional entry is now in an accelerated phase. Gate, with its forward-looking strategy and comprehensive product ecosystem, continues to lead this wave of institutionalization. Furthermore, John Cahill, COO of Galaxy Digital Asia Pacific, was invited to share his observations and assessments of the institutionalization process in the crypto industry from a market perspective.

This anniversary gala not only served as a milestone review of Gate's past development but also represented a significant opportunity to deepen global cooperation and foster industry consensus. Through high-quality offline exchanges, the platform aims to further connect global resources and contribute to the crypto industry's progression towards a more mature stage of development.
