KuCoin Bridges Traditional Finance and Digital Assets with Arc Mainnet Support and Wealth Products

KuCoin has taken steps to position itself as a bridge between traditional finance and digital assets by integrating with Arc mainnet and launching two new wealth products.

The exchange announced on September 16 that it had gone live on the Arc mainnet, allowing eligible users to move USDC directly between KuCoin and the Layer 1 blockchain from day one. This integration provides a practical entry point into an ecosystem built around payments, treasury management, tokenized assets, and programmable finance.

The Arc integration is part of KuCoin's wider real-world asset initiative, which includes adding FinChain Dollar (FUSD) to its RWA Collateral Mirroring Solution for institutional traders in late August. The exchange also launched KCUSD, an Earn product that accepts USDT, USDC, and USDG with a variable annual rate of up to 4%, drawn partly from real-world asset returns.

KuCoin Wealth has introduced two new products: All-Weather Multi-asset strategy - Principal Protected and Crypto Assets Multi-strategy. The former provides access to traditional asset classes through a diversified set of strategies, with capital preservation as its priority. The latter combines fundamental investment, quantitative trading, trend, arbitrage, and event-driven approaches to spread exposure across asset categories and return sources.

KuCoin's CEO, BC Wong, stated that 'the next phase of blockchain adoption will be defined not only by what can be built onchain but by how reliably users and institutions can access it.'
