KuCoin Review 2025: Comprehensive Overview of the Versatile Crypto Exchange

KuCoin announces a “World Premiere” spot listing for ETHGas (GWEI) and time-boxes the rollout with a call auction, a fixed trading start, and withdrawals opening the next day.

This kind of schedule matters because it funnels attention into a narrow window. When a token is also in an airdrop or claim narrative elsewhere in the market, the launch window can attract even more short-term focus as users try to line up deposits, quotes, and first trades.

Timed Schedule KuCoin Published

All times below are the timestamps KuCoin publishes in its listing notice.

Deposits

Deposits open immediately, supported on the ETH-ERC20 network, as stated in the KuCoin listing schedule.

Call Auction

The call auction runs from 13:00 to 14:00 UTC on January 21. For Bucharest time, that is 15:00 to 16:00 local time.

A call auction concentrates orders before continuous trading. It can help form an initial reference price, but it can also create sharper moves when the book transitions from auction to live matching.

Trading Start

Spot trading for GWEI/USDT begins at 14:00 UTC on January 21, which is 16:00 in Bucharest, per the same KuCoin announcement.

Withdrawals

Withdrawals open at 10:00 UTC on January 22, according to the published schedule.

Staged withdrawals can affect early liquidity conditions because price discovery begins while outbound transfer is still locked to the timetable.

Trading Bots

KuCoin also says that when spot trading begins, GWEI/USDT will be available for Trading Bots, including Spot Grid, Infinity Grid, DCA, Smart Rebalance, Spot Martingale, Spot Grid AI Plus, and AI Spot Trend.

Why This “World Premiere” Format Often Spikes Attention

A timed listing compresses the launch into three moments: deposits, auction, and open trading. That structure can change user behavior.

  • Deposits opening early bring inventory in before any public market price on the venue.
  • The one-hour call auction creates a single focal point for early price discovery.
  • Trading opens immediately after the auction, when liquidity is still forming.

If market participants are also tracking claim deadlines or airdrop eligibility externally, launch-day attention can stack on top of the listing schedule, because users tend to act quickly when timelines overlap.

What Traders Usually Watch During the First Hour

This is not financial advice. It is an operations and microstructure checklist.

  • Spread behavior in the first minutes after 14:00 UTC.
  • Order book depth and how quickly it normalizes after auction-to-live matching.
  • Short bursts of volatility during the first 15 to 60 minutes.
  • Whether bot-heavy flow smooths price action or increases chop.
  • The effect of withdrawals opening on January 22 on overall float and flow.

Conclusion

KuCoin’s ETHGas (GWEI) listing is built around a tight timeline: deposits are live immediately, a call auction runs from 13:00 to 14:00 UTC, and GWEI/USDT trading starts at 14:00 UTC on January 21, with withdrawals opening at 10:00 UTC on January 22.

That time-boxed structure can compress price discovery and amplify attention, especially when the broader market conversation also includes airdrop or claim narratives that encourage users to act within the same window.
