Gate Launches Trenches To Advance On-Chain Trading With Zero Gas Fees And Reduced Costs
Cryptocurrency exchange Gate announced that it has launched Trenches, an all-in-one on-chain trading platform aimed at combining the accessibility of centralized exchanges with the functionality of on-chain markets. The platform is designed to provide a more cost-efficient trading experience, with reduced fees and a limited-time gas fee waiver. It allows users to conduct on-chain transactions directly through Gate without repeatedly moving between different platforms.
Trenches applies a flat 0.5% fee to both buy and sell transactions and currently offers a gas fee waiver for trades involving Robinhood Chain-based assets. The reduced transaction costs are intended to give traders greater flexibility in managing capital and support more frequent trading of emerging on-chain assets, including Meme tokens and early-stage projects.
The platform also simplifies the process of accessing and trading digital assets. Users can trade with assets such as USDT without connecting external wallets or completing additional procedures involving wallet creation, transfers, connections, and transaction approvals. Through the Gate App or web interface, users can search for a token by name or contract address, access real-time market information and charts, and execute trades directly. This creates a “search-and-trade” model that operates across supported blockchains.
Expanded Market Access and Social Trading Capabilities
Trenches is also positioned as a platform focused on Meme trading and social interaction. Gate plans to introduce features including the Callout leaderboard, KOL leaderboard, and active-account showcases. These tools are intended to help users identify market trends, monitor prominent traders, and follow activity within Meme-focused communities.
The platform supports a broad selection of on-chain assets across multiple networks. Its coverage includes Robinhood Chain, SOL, ETH, Gate Layer, BSC, Base, Sui, ARB, World Chain, AVAX, Polygon, Linea, ZK, OP, and Berachain. The selection encompasses emerging micro-cap tokens and Meme coins, giving traders access to a wider range of early-stage and trending assets.
Trenches also draws on Gate’s existing liquidity infrastructure and high-performance matching engine. According to the company, this infrastructure is intended to support faster order execution and reduce slippage and waiting times, particularly during periods of heightened market activity.
The launch forms part of Gate’s broader Web3 strategy, with the company positioning Trenches as a step toward reducing barriers to on-chain trading and expanding its Web3 product ecosystem. Gate said it plans to continue developing its Web3 trading capabilities and refining the platform’s features and user experience.
Trenches is available through the latest version of the Gate App and the company’s web platform. Users can access supported on-chain markets and, during the promotional period, trade eligible Robinhood Chain-based assets without gas fees.
