KuCoin has announced the launch of its latest Spotlight token sale, giving users early access to AKEDO (AKE), a next-generation project that fuses artificial intelligence, gaming, and blockchain technology. The sale not only offers discounted pricing and exclusive benefits for KuCoin users, but also features a principal protection mechanism—reflecting the exchange’s commitment to supporting ambitious and innovative Web3 projects.
AKEDO, founded in 2024 and headquartered in Zug, Switzerland, is building a multi-agent AI framework that could transform how games are created and experienced in the Web3 era. By embedding AI agents directly into game engines, AKEDO allows users to produce fully functional, studio-quality games in just minutes using simple text prompts, with no coding skills required. According to the team, its system outperforms traditional large language models by being up to 100 times faster and significantly more cost-effective.
The project began as Akedog, a Telegram-based “tap-to-earn” game, but has since evolved into a full ecosystem where user-generated content, on-chain asset ownership, and crypto rewards intersect. The team describes it as a “TikTok meets Roblox” experience for blockchain gaming—an interactive space where creativity, play, and monetization converge. The AKEDO ecosystem is multi-chain, with support for Solana (the home of the AKE token), TON, BNB, Bera, and DuckChain. One of its standout features, called “PlayDrop,” lets players earn rewards in assets such as DOGE, BNB, and USDT across different blockchain networks.
Through the KuCoin Spotlight program, users can secure AKE tokens before they are listed on the open market. The offering is designed to be inclusive and investor-friendly. Tokens are available at an 80% discount on the project’s Fully Diluted Valuation (FDV) compared to its previous funding round, with an additional 10% discount for those subscribing with KuCoin’s native KCS token. KuCoin is also guaranteeing proportional allocations, ensuring that all participants receive tokens regardless of demand, and has implemented a buyback mechanism to help safeguard participants’ initial investments.
The Spotlight program itself has recently been upgraded, featuring a redesigned interface, dual-crypto support, and enhanced staking benefits. These changes reflect KuCoin’s ongoing focus on improving user experience while giving traders early access to high-potential blockchain projects. Founded in 2017, KuCoin has grown into one of the world’s leading cryptocurrency exchanges, serving over 41 million users in more than 200 countries and regions.
The platform lists over 1,000 digital assets and offers services including spot and futures trading, a Web3 wallet, and institutional solutions. Recognized by Forbes as one of the “Best Crypto Apps & Exchanges” and named a “Top 50 Global Unicorn” by Hurun, KuCoin remains committed to security, compliance, and innovation under the leadership of CEO BC Wong. With the AKEDO token sale, KuCoin continues to position itself at the forefront of the Web3 revolution, providing its users with early access to technologies shaping the future of gaming, AI, and blockchain.
