I recently came across something quite interesting: Gate has launched a digital Pre-IPO participation mechanism, and the reservation portal is now open.
In the past, when we talked about Pre-IPO, it was mostly about institutions, relationship clients, or those with high capital thresholds—kind of a "hidden copy" that ordinary people rarely get access to. But this time, Gate's approach is pretty straightforward—digitize it and put it on the platform, allowing more people to participate.
No need to go through the traditional complicated account opening process
Nor is there a need for a particularly high capital threshold
You can participate in subscriptions directly with stablecoins
It's still in the reservation phase, essentially reserving a spot in advance
It's a bit like moving the "offline private gathering" to a more transparent, open online scene.
And this isn't something they suddenly decided to do out of the blue. Gate has been promoting TradFi-related stuff, like stocks, indices, and commodities, gradually moving them onto the chain. This time, it's more like opening up the "primary market entrance" as well.
It may not change much immediately, but the direction is quite clear: turning opportunities that were once only accessible to a few into options more people can access.
If you're already somewhat interested in the primary market, IPOs, and similar topics, take a look:

You don't necessarily have to participate right away, but having early information always gives you an advantage.
