Compared by the numbers

These figures come from the venues themselves. Volume is missing on purpose: every exchange counts it its own way, and on a few the top of the book is tokenised equities. The bottom row counts the P2P currencies our scanner reaches, not everything the venue lists.

In short: the difference

Gate is the place where new coins show up first. On the market since 2013, jurisdiction: Panama, its own GT token.

Ourbit is a venue with bots and a Web3 side. .

What Gate gives you

The rival’s service list is wide, yet Gate wins on other things: One of the oldest venues, running since 2013, and first in our coverage for withdrawal networks: twenty-four for USDT alone. Two thousand spot pairs and a thousand perpetuals. There is P2P, savings and staking, Startup launches, copy trading, bots and its own GT token with fee discounts.

Strong sides: 24 USDT withdrawal networks, more than anyone, 2000 spot pairs, running since 2013.

What Ourbit gives you

Against an early-listing venue, Ourbit plays a different game: A venue that calls itself a SuperCEX and bets on breadth: fifteen hundred spot pairs against USDT and over seven hundred perpetual contracts, each publishing its funding rate and mark price. Listings are quick, with plenty of fresh and meme coins. Data is served openly and in full — spot with best quotes, and contracts — which makes its prices sound to compare with other venues.

Strong sides: 1500+ USDT pairs and 700+ contracts, best quotes and rates served as one list, fast listings of new coins.

What decides it

  • Native token. GT on Gate cuts fees and opens launches; Ourbit has no such lever.
  • Strengths side by side. Gate: 24 USDT withdrawal networks, more than anyone, 2000 spot pairs, running since 2013; Ourbit: 1500+ USDT pairs and 700+ contracts, best quotes and rates served as one list, fast listings of new coins.
  • Which job. Gate is for anyone who values freedom of choice when moving coins between chains, while Ourbit is as an early-listing venue and a leg in cross-venue routes.
  • Worth remembering. Gate: the interface is dense with sections: finding the right one takes a while. Ourbit: the network and withdrawal-fee directory sits behind a key, so we do not show a transfer status for it.

Which one fits you

Gate — for anyone who values freedom of choice when moving coins between chains.

What people ask most

Gate: How reliable is Gate? It has operated since 2013 and publishes proof of reserves regularly — good marks by industry standards. That publication is not a full audit.

Gate: Are there many coins? One of the widest listings on the market, comparable to MEXC. As there, breadth calls for caution: check a pair's volume before trading.

Ourbit: How many pairs and contracts does Ourbit have? By our measurements around fifteen hundred spot pairs against USDT and over seven hundred perpetual contracts. The figures are live and refresh with the data.

Ourbit: Does Ourbit take part in your arbitrage sections? Yes, all of them: spot, futures, funding, triangular routes and stablecoins. The exchange serves best quotes with sizes in one list, so we can compute both the spread and the execution ceiling.

Ourbit: Why do Ourbit routes show a question mark instead of a transfer status? The venue does not openly publish which networks accept deposits and withdrawals, or what a transfer costs. We will not present a guess as a fact.

Both at once

You do not have to pick one. Two accounts give you a fallback when the coin or network you need exists only on the other venue. A rare coin is bought where it exists and moved to the ecosystem — easier to hold, stake or sell into a deeper book there.
