KuCoin, a global leading cryptocurrency exchange, announced that it would adopt Chainlink Price Feeds to bring high-quality price reference data to Over-the-Counter (OTC) markets. Chainlink Price Feeds are open-source decentralized data feeds for cryptocurrency prices, FX rates, and other financial market data sets. Integrating Chainlink Price Feeds to KuCoin OTC market pricing will empower stronger assurances of receiving fair-market exchange rates with heightened transparency into where the rates are derived from.
KuCoin’s OTC market, also known as the P2P fiat trade market, now supports 21 fiats. It allows users to trade cryptocurrencies and fiat currencies directly with others at predefined prices agreed upon by both parties.
