KuCoin’s weekly futures report for October 19–25 highlighted new perpetual contract listings and ongoing platform activities. The updates included several contracts referencing stock equities, the PROOF futures contest, and KuCoin Live events.
KuCoin Futures Expands Contract Listings
KuCoin Futures announced five perpetual contracts referencing stock equities on October 21: FWDIUSDT, linked to Forward Industries (Nasdaq: FWDI); MSTUUSDT, linked to the T-Rex 2X Long MSTR Daily Target ETF (Cboe BZX: MSTU); USDEXUSDT, linked to StablecoinX (Nasdaq: USDE); GSUSDT, linked to Goldman Sachs (NYSE: GS); and URNMUSDT, linked to the Sprott Uranium Miners ETF (NYSE Arca: URNM). The contracts offer synthetic exposure to the underlying stocks and ETFs, with leverage of up to 20x.
The exchange also listed AXISUSDT, a USDT-margined perpetual contract linked to Axis Robotics (AXIS), with leverage of up to 20x. Meanwhile, PYBOBOUSDT, linked to Capybobo (PYBOBO), offers leverage of up to 8x.
These derivatives allow eligible users to trade price movements without directly owning the underlying assets. Leverage can amplify both gains and losses, while availability depends on regional restrictions.

PROOF Contest Enters Final Days
KuCoin’s PROOF: Go The Distance futures contest is approaching its October 31 deadline. The campaign offers a total prize pool of 560,000 USDT across team-based competitions, a daily spin wheel, and an individual trading-volume leaderboard.
The solo leaderboard lets eligible participants earn Futures Points based on their activity and redeem them for rewards such as position airdrops, fee vouchers, or cash, subject to the campaign rules.
The contest also includes team-based profit-and-loss rankings, referral incentives, and daily reward opportunities. Participants must meet the applicable trading-volume, qualification, and other eligibility requirements to access specific rewards.
The campaign is scheduled to end at 00:00 on October 31, 2026, in UTC+8. Participants can track their progress and eligible rewards through the Futures Arena dashboard.
KuCoin Live Festival Offers 320,000 USDT in Rewards
KuCoin is also running its Live Viewer Festival, which offers a prize pool of more than 320,000 USDT. The campaign runs from October 13 through November 13, 2026, in UTC+8.
Participants can earn lucky-draw entries by completing eligible activities, including watching livestreams, following streamers, meeting specified trading-volume thresholds, and inviting friends to watch.
For example, eligible users can receive draw entries by watching a stream for a required period or by reaching qualifying spot and futures trading volumes.
KuCoin’s latest updates combine expanded derivatives access with incentives for traders and livestream audiences. However, the advertised reward pools do not guarantee individual payouts, and users should review contract specifications, regional eligibility, and campaign conditions before participating.
