Future Plans: GateChain plans to optimize infrastructure, such as data availability (DA), to improve network efficiency and security, and expand the Web3 ecosystem to cover wallets, transactions, asset management, NFTs, and other fields to enhance user experience and token utility.
Analysis: The burning mechanism of GT is more prominent among exchange tokens, and the supply is decreasing faster, showing the importance of value management. Compared with BGB and OKB, GT has a lower market capitalization, but the deflationary strategy provides it with stable value support.
BNB takes the lead with a mature ecosystem, indicating that the size of the ecosystem has a significant impact on market capitalization. The future development of GateChain needs to focus on the implementation effect of technology upgrading and ecological expansion.
