According to representatives of the trading platform, users will be able to borrow crypto assets in order to “expand their capabilities in operations” and, in particular, open short positions.

“Compared to regular trading, margin trading can provide higher returns ,” KuCoin said. “ However, such trading involves increased risks.”

Holders of native KCS tokens will be able to reduce trading commissions by 20%.

Recall that in July KuCoin launched the KuMEX platform for trading cryptocurrency derivatives, and recently the exchange announced monthly Bitcoin futures contracts.
