Pre-Market Closure and Delivery Schedule for Merlin Chain (MERL)

Dear Valued KuCoin Users,

We deeply appreciate your active participation in our Pre-Market products, especially in the trading session for Merlin Chain (MERL). Your engagement has played a pivotal role in the ongoing success of this initiative.

We are pleased to announce the conclusion of the Pre-Market trading session for Merlin Chain (MERL). As we move towards the delivery phase, we want to guide you through the upcoming procedures and timelines.

1. Important Time Frame & Updates

  • Pre-Market will close at 09:59 on April 19, 2024 (UTC).
  • The settlement will start at 10:00 on April 19, 2024 (UTC).
  • The final settlement time will be 16:00 on April 19, 2024 (UTC). (Estimated, subject to change in case of unforeseen circumstances, i.e. Merlin Mainnet jams or Merlin Chain airdrop claiming process works improperly)

Failure to complete the delivery can result in the loss of the collateral. All pending orders will be canceled after that, and funds will be returned to their original source.

2. Automated Token Delivery in Trading Account

The delivery process for MERL tokens is automatic. As a seller, if you have the required MERL tokens in your KuCoin Trading Account, our system will automatically manage the delivery. If your delivery isn't immediately processed, please wait patiently for a few minutes.

Please note that the system will continuously attempt to fulfill deliveries for those who haven't completed them, which means sellers have multiple opportunities for delivery. Also, be aware that due to this automatic clearance, your normal trading activities might be influenced momentarily. However, it's imperative to understand that if you miss the final delivery time, you will lose your collateral.

3. Methods for Delivery


3.1. Deposit

  1. Confirm the correct Token Ticker MERL and ensure you have the accurate deposit address.
  2. Transfer the required MERL tokens to your Spot Trading Account before the designated delivery time

3.2. Purchase on Spot Market

  1. If you have yet to secure the required MERL tokens, you can purchase the necessary amount in the Spot market.
  2. After purchasing, transfer the MERL tokens to your Spot trading account and await the scheduled delivery time.

4. Important Note

It's imperative to store your MERL tokens in your Spot trading account. Tokens present in any other account (e.g., Funding account) will not be considered for delivery. Failure to transfer tokens to the Spot trading account could result in forfeiture of your collateral.

5. Monitoring Delivery Status
