Dear KuCoin Futures Users,
 
KuCoin Futures will delist the AIAUSDT perpetual contract at 14:00 on December 11, 2025 (UTC).
 
The arrangements for the delisting are as follows:
  • Starting from 13:50 on December 11, 2025 (UTC), opening new positions in the AIAUSDT contract will be suspended, while closing positions will remain unaffected.
  • The AIAUSDT perpetual contract will be delisted at 14:00 on December 11, 2025 (UTC). With the delisting 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. It is recommended that users close position in advance to avoid unnecessary losses.

Updated Mark Price Mechanism Before Delisting

To enhance fairness and stability during the delisting process, KuCoin Futures has updated the mark price mechanism for the final 30 minutes prior to delisting:

  • Mark Price = Average Index Price (calculated every second)
    • Example for a 14:00 delisting:
      • 13:35 mark price = average index price from 13:30 to 13:35
      • 13:59 mark price = average index price from 13:30 to 13:59
  • 180-Second Smooth Transition Mechanism

    • Starting from 13:30, the system will smoothly transition from the original mark price formula to the new average-based mark price over a 180-second window to avoid sudden mark price jumps.
      • Mark Price = β * (New Mark Price Formula) + (1 − β) * (Old Mark Price Formula)
 
If abnormal market fluctuations occur and the index price is found to be maliciously manipulated, KuCoin Futures may undertake additional protective measures without further announcement, including but not limited to adjusting the maximum leverage value, position value, and maintenance margin in each margin tier, updating funding rates such as the interest rate, premium and capped funding rate, changing the constituents of the index price.
 
 
The market may fluctuate sharply before the contract delisting. It is suggested that users control risks by reducing the leverage or by closing positions in advance.
 
Thanks for your understanding and support!
