• KuCoin Futures launched a VRUSDT perpetual contract tracking Victoria VR (VR), with trading opening at 9:00 UTC on October 29, 2026

KuCoin Futures published a new-listing announcement on October 29, 2026 at 12:00, introducing a perpetual contract for Victoria VR, a token associated with a virtual-reality and metaverse platform, under the ticker VR. The contract, denoted VRUSDT, is margined in USDT and went live for trading at 9:00 UTC the same day.

Each VRUSDT contract represents 1,000 VR tokens, and KuCoin set the available leverage range from 1x up to a maximum of 8x. That ceiling is on the lower end compared with some of KuCoin’s other perpetual offerings, which can run considerably higher for more established or more liquid underlying tokens, suggesting the exchange is treating Victoria VR as a comparatively higher-risk or lower-liquidity asset for derivatives purposes.

KuCoin’s announcement includes its standard risk-management language, noting that the exchange may adjust leverage limits and other contract parameters after launch depending on market conditions. This kind of post-launch flexibility is typical across KuCoin’s futures listings and gives the exchange room to tighten terms if trading in a newly listed contract turns out to be unusually volatile or thin.

The listing adds to a steady stream of perpetual contracts KuCoin Futures has rolled out across a wide range of underlying tokens, from established cryptocurrencies to smaller or more thematic assets tied to specific sectors such as gaming, artificial intelligence or, in this case, virtual reality. Listing a dedicated futures contract gives traders a way to take leveraged long or short positions on Victoria VR’s price without needing to hold the underlying token directly.

KuCoin did not announce any accompanying trading competition or fee promotion alongside this particular listing, in contrast to some of its other new contract launches. The exchange’s futures arm has steadily broadened the range of underlying assets it offers derivatives on throughout 2026, moving well beyond the handful of large-cap coins that once made up the bulk of its listings, and smaller tokens like Victoria VR now sit alongside far more established names on the same platform. That breadth gives traders more ways to express a view on niche sectors, but it also means newer or thinner contracts can carry sharper price swings than the exchange’s more heavily traded pairs. The full listing details are published on KuCoin’s own announcement page.
