Crypto platform turns strict US compliance into a product feature
Instead of retrofitting a global model, the platform constructed a ground-up architecture that holds 31 money transmitter licenses across 42 authorized states.
Crypto exchange Gate US has expanded its regulatory footprint to 31 licenses across 42 authorized states where it is permitted to do business, reflecting its approach of putting compliance first and backing that up with a 100.14% proof-of-reserves ratio.

The United States is often viewed as the final frontier for cryptocurrency platforms. It is a market of immense depth, but one that is guarded by a regulatory labyrinth that has halted many global players. In this environment, compliance becomes a core component of the business model, rather than just a department.

Crypto exchange Gate US, which commenced operations on Aug. 1, has positioned itself specifically to navigate this landscape. Rather than retrofitting a global model for American users, the platform has spent its initial months constructing an architecture designed to meet US financial oversight requirements while maintaining the agility native to the crypto sector.

Licenses across the US
In the US, trust is a metric defined by licensure and auditability. Over the past six months, Gate US doubled its money transmitter licenses to 31, allowing it to operate in compliance across 42 states. Behind those approvals is a set of compliance tools, including Chainalysis blockchain monitoring and strict Know Your Customer (KYC) and Anti-Money Laundering (AML) checks.
On top of meeting licensing requirements, the exchange has set up ways for people to check that it is solvent. Adopting a proof of reserves standard, Gate US provides independent verification that customer assets are not rehypothecated. Data from mid-November 2025 indicates a reserve ratio of 100.14%, securing over 200 assets with a total reserve value exceeding $80 million.
Features for the modern trader
While safety is the baseline, utility drives adoption. Gate US has rolled out a suite of features designed for the specific habits of US traders. The platform recently introduced “NextUp,” a mechanism designed to allow early access to new tokens, alongside a staking feature and a “Convert” feature for instant asset swaps.

To make it easier to move money between bank accounts and the onchain world, Gate US offers two-way crypto-fiat deposits and withdrawals so that funds can flow in and out without extra steps.$GT ‌
