KuCoin TradFi Review: Can Crypto Traders Access Global Markets 24/7?

KuCoin has expanded KuCoin TradFi, which now lists more than 170 perpetual contracts across eight categories, including U.S. and Asian equities, ETFs and indices, and commodities such as silver, copper, crude oil and natural gas. These are USDT-settled derivatives that track price movements without giving ownership, dividends or voting rights, and they trade 24/7. Trading in perpetual contracts linked to stocks, commodities and other real-world assets reached $347 billion in May 2026, more than eight times the volume of tokenized assets traded on spot markets in the first five months of the year. Weekend liquidity can be thinner: TradFi-perpetual volume across 19 exchanges fell from roughly $32 billion on normal weekdays to about $3 billion on a Saturday in September.
