1. What is KCS?

KCS is KuCoin's native token, which was launched back in 2017 as a utility token that allows traders to share the growth benefit of the exchange.

It was issued as an ERC-20 token running on the Ethereum network and was supported by most Ethereum wallets. After the launch of KCC in the middle of 2021, some KCS has been migrating to the KCC chain. As the underlying fuel of KCC, KCS will empower all the dApps on the chain.

The total supply of KCS was set at 200 million, and there is a planned burn mechanism on a monthly basis until just 100 million KCS remain.
