KuCoin (KCS)

Kucoin is a Hong Kong based exchange that began operations on September 15, 2017. Originally launched as Kubi.com in China, the company moved their operations to Hong Kong, after regulators forced all Chinese-based exchanges to shut down. Kucoin has since shifted their attention to serve the international market. The platform uses KuCoin Shares (KCS) in a similar way to Binance. You get a discount on trading fees when you use KuCoin tokens.
