"Listing is not just a technical event but a gateway to a new phase of ecosystem development, where liquidity meets innovation."
Gate in the Layer2 section announces the initial listing of Aztec (AZTEC) with the launch of the spot pair AZTEC/USDT and subsequent migration of the pre-market perpetual contract to the standard format. The spot trading is scheduled to begin on February 12, 2026, at 07:00 (UTC), and the conversion of the AZTEC/USDT pre-market contract to the standard perpetual contract will be completed by 10:00 (UTC) the same day. Asset withdrawal is approximately expected to open on February 13, 2026, at 07:00 (UTC), depending on the network’s technical status.

The listing is accompanied by comprehensive integration of tools for asset management:
- Spot trading in the AZTEC/USDT pair with full market liquidity;
- Support for the standard AZTECUSDT perpetual contract with leverage from 1x to 50x for long and short positions;
- Automated migration of the pre-market contract without affecting open positions and trading activity.

Aztec is positioned as one of the leading Layer 2 solutions on Ethereum, focusing on privacy and cryptographic verification of computations. The project develops infrastructure for creating applications with user data confidentiality, utilizing a trustless client-side proving approach. Backed by a Series B funding round of $100 million led by a16z, Aztec brings together a team of top researchers in applied cryptography and blockchain scaling.

For market participants, this means expanding strategic opportunities:
• Diversification of the portfolio through exposure to privacy-focused Layer 2;
• Application of derivative strategies with a regulated risk level thanks to flexible leverage;
• Participation in shaping the liquidity of the new asset at an early stage of its exchange history.

During periods of increased market volatility, the conversion time may be adjusted according to the platform’s operational conditions, so users are advised to proactively adapt their trading strategies and risk management. The AZTEC listing in the Layer2 section emphasizes Gate’s strategic focus on supporting technologically significant solutions within the Ethereum ecosystem and creates structured conditions for their integration into the global digital asset market.
