According to the KCS bonus daily report released by KuCoin, its 24-hour trading volume of spot trading, margin trading and futures trading exceeded $2 billion, rising by more than 200% in the past 7 days.

Since bitcoin halved last year, Grayscale has been buying large amounts of Bitcoin. Now it holds more than 600,000 BTC, accounting for about 3% of Bitcoin total supply. Following Grayscale, more institutions such as JPMorgan, Tudor BVI Fund, Social Capital, and Microstrategy Inc, etc. are jumping into Bitcoin. Driven by the demand from institutional buyers, the total crypto market-cap sharply increased by more than 4 times in the past 12 months. In the first week of 2021, Bitcoin surged from $28,920 to $40,350, with an over $10000 net increase. ETH also showed an up trend and topped $1,289, up more than 60% in 7-day.

As the accumulated transaction volume of the KuCoin platform exceeded 100 billion, the price of the KCS, KuCoin’s native token, showed an upward trend. In the past 7 days, the price of KCS jumped from $0.66 to as high as $1.06 before settling down to $0.96, with an increase of more than 36%.
