DeFi & Yields ·
KuCoin Futures is launching five stock index perpetual contracts, all going live on October 21, 2026 at 9:00 UTC. The contracts—URNMUSDT, GSUSDT, MSTUUSDT, FWDIUSDT, and USDEXUSDT—will be marginable and support leverage of 1-20x. The offerings are available to users in supported countries and regions.
These are synthetic derivative products designed to track equity benchmarks and are settled in stablecoins rather than physical shares. The contracts do not confer ownership of underlying stocks or securities, and no shares will be delivered upon settlement. KuCoin notes that access may be restricted in certain jurisdictions based on applicable laws and compliance requirements.
The platform has flagged that trading derivatives carries significant risk, including potential total loss of position. No additional details about the underlying equity benchmarks being tracked or specific product mechanics beyond leverage ratios have been disclosed in the announcement.
