Overview

KCC (KuCoin Community Chain) is an EVM-compatible blockchain associated with the KuCoin exchange community, in which KCS serves as the network's token. Its documentation is split into developer and end-user tracks and covers deploying smart contracts, tokens and NFTs, indicating standard EVM tooling support. The chain runs its own consensus engine, documented separately as the 'KCC consensus model', and supports both full nodes and validator nodes, with node staking available so participants can earn rewards for helping secure the network. On the user side the documentation covers how to obtain KCS and participate in staking; on the ecosystem side there is a dApp directory where applications can be explored and submitted, plus a published roadmap. As of the documentation reviewed in July 2026 the ecosystem was presented as operational, with node infrastructure, staking and dApp submission all live. KCC was created as a community chain around the KuCoin ecosystem, using KCS — the exchange's existing token — as its network token rather than issuing a separate gas asset.
