Impact analysis
The confirmed operational consequence is that eligible KuCoin VIP5+ and eligible API users can accumulate stock trading volume during the stated window and claim fee deduction coupons at the listed milestones. Because rewards are cumulative, reaching a higher milestone unlocks that milestone's coupon in addition to lower ones, up to the stated 10,000 USDT total. The source does not state that trading is required, does not describe any change to fees, account status, or service availability, and does not address users below VIP5, non-API users, or Market Makers beyond excluding them. No asset, price, liquidity, or technical effect is established by the announcement.
