Gate Vault: Establishing a New Security Standard for Multi-Chain Self-Custody Assets

Gate Multi-Chain Secure Wallet: Empowering Self-Custody for Your Digital Assets

Gate, a globally recognized trading platform, has introduced an innovative security solution—Gate Vault. This multi-chain self-custody wallet leverages Multi-Party Computation (MPC) technology to deliver a safer, more transparent, and more efficient digital asset management experience for users.

MPC technology ensures that private keys never exist in a single location. Unlike traditional wallets that rely on a sole private key, Gate Vault divides the key into multiple fragments and distributes them across different nodes. The complete private key is never assembled in one place, dramatically reducing cybersecurity risks.

Four Layers of Protection: Comprehensive Security Redefined

1. Distributed Key Storage
   Gate Vault stores key fragments separately on the user’s device, Gate’s servers, and a third-party provider, utilizing a three-party distributed architecture. Even if an attacker gains access to a single fragment, reconstructing the complete key is impossible, providing security far beyond traditional wallets.
2. User-Exclusive Control
   All transactions require 2-of-3 threshold signature authorization. Gate and the third party only hold fragments and cannot initiate transactions on their own. Users retain full control over their assets at all times.
3. 48-Hour Transfer Delay
   The wallet applies a 48-hour delay to transfers. If suspicious activity is detected during this window, you can immediately freeze operations. This effectively mitigates the risk of theft or unauthorized access.
4. Global Disaster Recovery
   Even if Gate’s services become temporarily unavailable, users can recover their key fragments using open-source tools and third-party providers, ensuring asset recovery under even the most adverse conditions.

MPC: Setting the Standard for Web3 Security

As more users migrate from centralized accounts to self-custody wallets, MPC has emerged as the leading solution for digital asset security. The launch of Gate Vault strengthens Gate’s security architecture and complements its suite of Web3 products:
