Gate pioneered the PoSEC fund security certification, with a cold storage coverage rate of 104.58%, enhancing security guarantees

According to the official announcement, Gate has officially launched a new Proof of Security (PoSEC), becoming the first digital asset trading platform in the industry to propose a PoSEC security certification system, extending security verification from reserve adequacy to asset storage structure and risk protection.

According to Gate's official page, as of the snapshot on November 4 at 08:00 (UTC+8), the platform's cold storage coverage rate reached 104.58%, with cold storage and hot wallet asset ratios being 88.26% and 11.74%, respectively. This means that according to the corresponding statistical criteria, even if all hot wallet assets are lost, cold storage can still cover all user assets. Currently, this data is being verified by an independent third-party auditing agency, and the report will be published on the official website once completed.

In 2020, Gate was the first to launch an open-source Proof of Reserves (PoR) related program, and has since continued to strengthen a multi-layered security system that includes mechanisms such as the separation of cold and hot wallets, multi-signature, multi-party secure computation (MPC), and dynamic risk monitoring. The introduction of PoSEC further extends the verification of fund security from reserve adequacy to storage safety and extreme risk coverage capability, providing a new practical path for establishing a more comprehensive and transparent fund security standard for the industry.
