At its core, the Trust Project focuses on key values such as infrastructure neutrality, responsible innovation, and enhanced protections against platform risks. KuCoin’s native token, KCS, play a more pivotal role in governance, ecosystem management and user reward programs.
“We’re directing resources where they count — toward building credibility, protecting our users, and securing the future of crypto,” Wong said during his keynote.
