KuCoin Tops Bitcoin Spot Trading Growth in 2025

According to CryptoQuant's 'Exchange Leaderboard Report 2025,' KuCoin has demonstrated strong performance across several key trading dimensions, emerging as a prominent growth force among global crypto exchanges. The report indicates that the fastest growth in Bitcoin spot trading in 2025 came from mid-sized platforms rather than traditional top exchanges. KuCoin secured its position as a leader in Bitcoin spot growth with a year-on-year increase of 64%, indicating its continued ability to attract incremental users and trading volume from larger platforms.

In terms of overall spot trading volume, KuCoin also performed strongly, with a full-year spot trading volume increase of 51%, ranking among the top three globally. This achievement reflects the platform's continued investment in expanding its user base and optimizing the trading experience.

In the derivatives market, KuCoin demonstrated a deep focus on non-mainstream coins. Its perpetual contract trading volume for major and long-tail altcoins other than Ethereum accounted for over 50% of the platform's total derivatives trading volume, ranking second globally and highlighting its unique advantage in providing diversified liquidity. Furthermore, KuCoin is actively expanding fiat on-ramp channels, gradually strengthening liquidity support for non-USD markets such as the Australian dollar (AUD), Euro (EUR), and Brazilian Real (BRL), further enhancing its localized service capabilities in the Asia-Pacific, Europe, and Latin America regions. As a global digital asset platform established in 2017, KuCoin serves over 40 million users, covering more than 200 countries and regions, offering spot and futures trading for over 1,000 tokens, institutional wealth management, and Web3 wallet services. The platform has obtained SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001:2022 security certifications, completed AUSTRAC registration in Australia, and obtained MiCA compliance qualification in Austria, continuously building a secure, compliant, and trustworthy crypto ecosystem.
