KuCoin Achieved Record Trading Volume in 2025

KuCoin reached a total trading volume of over $1.25 trillion in 2025. This marked the strongest year recorded, with an average monthly trading volume exceeding $114 billion.

This performance also represented the highest share of all-time centralized exchange trading volumes. The activities of KuCoin grew faster than the total centralized exchange volumes even during periods of low market volatility.

Spot and futures volumes each surpassed $500 billion, indicating a broad-based usage without reliance on a single product group.

Altcoins constituted a large portion of trading activity. This reinforced KuCoin's role as a major liquidity hub. The intense activity in altcoins was noteworthy during a period when key assets like Bitcoin and Ethereum experienced more moderate trading volumes.

Even though overall cryptocurrency trading volumes weakened mid-year, KuCoin maintained a heightened level of core activity. This indicated that user participation was structurally higher, revealing user engagement beyond temporary volume peaks.
