KuCoin Token (KCS) is the native digital asset of the KuCoin platform, launched in 2017. Initially issued as an ERC-20 token on the Ethereum network, KCS is compatible with most Ethereum-based wallets. The token is designed to provide value to its holders through various benefits within the KuCoin ecosystem. The total initial supply was set at 200 million KCS, with a long-term plan to reduce this to 100 million through token burns. As KuCoin’s decentralized trading solutions develop, KCS aims to function as both the native asset for these services and the governance token for the KuCoin community.

KCS functions as a utility token within the KuCoin ecosystem, offering various advantages to its holders. It is used to pay for trading fees on the KuCoin Exchange, allowing users to receive discounts of up to 80%. KCS holders can also participate in token sales via KuCoin Spotlight and engage in LockDrop or BurningDrop events on the Pool-X platform. Additionally, holding KCS can grant users VIP status on KuCoin, reducing maker and taker fees without requiring a large BTC trading volume. Beyond the platform, KCS can be used for services such as online shopping, hotel bookings, and purchasing gaming equipment.

KCS offers multiple use cases within the KuCoin ecosystem. Users who hold more than 6 KCS receive daily rewards, sourced from 50% of KuCoin’s daily trading fee revenue. This mechanism is designed to reward both KCS holders and contributors to the KuCoin ecosystem. The benefits users receive are influenced by the amount of KCS held and the trading activity on the platform. As KuCoin expands its decentralized offerings, KCS aims to serve as the core utility and governance token for future decentralized products, driving participation and utility within the broader KuCoin ecosystem.

KuCoin Token was introduced in 2017 by KuCoin Exchange, a cryptocurrency platform based in Singapore. The exchange was co-founded by a team including CEO Michael Gan, CTO Top Lan, COO Eric Don, marketing director Jack Zhu, president of business operations John Lee, operations director Kent Li, and chief legal consultant Linda Lin. The initial total supply of KCS was set at 200 million, with a strategic plan to burn tokens over time until only 100 million remain. As of the latest update, the circulating supply stands at 80,118,638 KCS, with a maximum supply of 170,118,638 KCS, reflecting ongoing token burns and distribution strategies.
