KuCoin is the "People’s Exchange," known for wide altcoin listings — a very broad listing surface, trading bots and the KCS token. Its identity is listing breadth and access to the long tail.

Coinbase is the largest US-listed exchange and a compliance-first retail on-ramp — easy fiat on-ramping, staking, a self-custody wallet and the Base L2. Its identity is mainstream, regulated legitimacy.
