#GT2025Q4BurnCompleted
#My2026FirstPost
The completion of the GateToken (GT) Q4 2025 burn is a significant milestone for its deflationary ecosystem. This latest event brings the total amount of GT removed from the initial 300 million supply to over 61.6%.
Here is a detailed breakdown of the Q4 2025 burn and its impact on the token's ecosystem:
Q4 2025 Burn SummaryMetricDetails
Total Amount Burned2,163,900.48GT
Estimated Market Value~$26.92 Million
Cumulative Burned (Total)184,819,426 GT
Total Supply Reduction~61.61% of initial supply
Key Takeaways for GT Holders
Deflationary Momentum: This quarter's burn is slightly higher by volume than the Q2 and Q3 2025 burns (which hovered around 1.9M–2.1M GT), signaling consistent platform revenue and buyback activity.
Ecosystem Expansion: The utility of GT has transitioned from a simple exchange token to the native gas token for Gate Layer (the Layer 2 network launched in late 2025). This transition is expected to create more organic, transaction-based burns in 2026.
Market Position: As of early January 2026, the circulating supply sits at approximately 80 million GT, significantly increasing the token's scarcity compared to its 2019 launch.
Historical Context (2025)
2025 was a record-breaking year for GT's deflationary strategy. Here is how the quarterly burns stacked up:
Q1: 1.54M GT burned (~$33.8M value)
Q2: 1.92M GT burned (~$39.0M value)
Q3: 2.10M GT burned (~$35.3M value)
Q4: 2.16M GT burned (~$26.9M value)
The variation in dollar value reflects the market price fluctuations throughout the year, but the volume of tokens burned has steadily increased, showing robust platform activity.
January 2026, here is the technical breakdown and the on-chain verification for the Q4 burn.
