Dear KuCoin Users,

According to the BitTorrent official announcement, the old BTT tokens will be redenominated and swapped with the new BTT tokens at a ratio of 1:1,000. The BTT split started on December 12, 2021.

For a better trading experience and risk control, KuCoin Futures provides a solution for the trading of BTT perpetual contracts during the split. The details are as follows:

The BTT/USDT perpetual contract will be delisted at 12:00 on January 5, 2022 (UTC). Of this contract, the open orders will be canceled, and the positions will be settled at the average index price during the last 30 minutes before the delisting.

The market may fluctuate sharply before the contract delisting. It is suggested that the users control risks by reducing the leverage or by closing positions in advance.

After the settlement, the BTT/USDT perpetual contract will temporarily be delisted from both the website and the app. For the re-listing and the opening time of the BTT contact trading service, please follow our official announcements.
