KuCoin is a digital asset exchange co-founded in 2017 (with Johnny Lyu among its founding team) and incorporated in the Republic of Seychelles. It is owned and operated by Mek Global Limited, a Seychelles-registered entity. The platform provides multiple services, including OTC trading, spot trading, margin trading, futures trading, and cryptocurrency lending.

Although KuCoin’s legal registration is in Seychelles, it also maintains operational offices or personnel in other regions, such as Singapore. However, specific details about its physical headquarters and local operations can vary, and the company does not publicly disclose comprehensive office locations.

In terms of regulatory licenses, KuCoin’s compliance status and availability vary depending on each jurisdiction’s local regulations.
