KuCoin intends to fuel growth in the blockchain gaming, metaverse, and Web3 environment. Gamification and NFTs will play key roles in the virtual worlds of the future. The company is now venturing into IGOs – Initial Gaming Offerings – through the KuCoin IGO, NFT launch platform.

The new launch platform will provide exclusive access to in-game NFTs to KuCoin users globally. As a result, users can benefit from a seamless centralized experience for users to purchase, invest in, and withdraw their NFT assets. In addition, KuCoin IGO users can manage their NFTs on the exchange, creating an all-in-one solution for novice and experienced non-fungible token enthusiasts.

For game developers and creators, KuCoin IGO enables multiple ways to launch their creations. Options include flat-rate sales, auctions, and mystery boxes.

KuCoin CEO Johnny Lyu comments:

"The metaverse is one of the most exciting topics of today, and a brand-new way of life in the near future. When both giants such as Meta, Amazon, and Tencent and wealthy investors such as Elon Musk are heavily investing money, talent, and technology into the metaverse, one must believe that this is going to be a historical trend that delivers a truly unique experience. GameFi and NFT will be the most typical entrances to the metaverse, which is a big reason why KuCoin launched the IGO platform. We hope to empower the development of web3.0 through KuCoin's IGO, to dig more good GameFi projects and NFTs, and help the entire industry’s development."
