Kinto to List $K Token on Gate.io, MEXC, and Kinto Exchange, Pioneering Fair Tokenomics in DeFi




Kinto, a pioneering modular exchange providing secure and compliant access to decentralized finance (DeFi), has announced the listing of the $K token on leading exchanges, including Gate.io, MEXC, and Kinto’s own platform. The listing is scheduled for March 31, 2025, marking a major step forward in expanding the accessibility and liquidity of the $K token.

$K Token Sale Success
Kinto previously completed a successful $K token sale, raising $3.84 million from over 2,700 investors. The sale used a Dutch auction model, a transparent pricing mechanism that starts at a high price and gradually decreases until all tokens are sold. The final price was set at $15 per token, ensuring fairness and minimizing speculative volatility.

Strong support from financial institutions
Kinto’s development has received significant support from reputable financial institutions. Brevan Howard Digital, the digital asset arm of global hedge fund Brevan Howard, invested $20 million in the Kinto ecosystem, demonstrating confidence in Kinto’s institutional-grade, compliant on-chain finance model. Anthony Scaramucci of SkyBridge Capital also expressed his support for Kinto, highlighting the modular exchange’s potential to provide institutional investors with an opportunity to deploy capital safely on-chain.

Commitment to security and compliance
Kinto was built with the goal of providing a secure on-chain finance environment, incorporating KYC and AML requirements right from the blockchain level. This ensures that both institutions and individuals can access DeFi in a compliant and legal manner. Kinto’s non-custodial smart wallet offers enhanced security features, addressing the risks typically found on centralized platforms.

Transparent and Sustainable Tokenomics
The $K token is designed with a transparent tokenomics structure, with 70% of the total supply allocated to the community, promoting fair and decentralized distribution. $K token holders have the right to participate in governance, including decisions on protocol upgrades, fee structures, and treasury allocation. Additionally, staking the $K token offers incentives such as reduced trading fees and priority access to liquidity pools.

Kinto’s Future Vision
With a modular design that enables seamless movement of assets and liquidity between different protocols and exchanges, Kinto is reshaping on-chain financial infrastructure. Listing the $K token on leading exchanges demonstrates Kinto’s commitment to financial sustainability, security, and user choice, especially as the market shifts from speculative tokenomics to real utility.

Ramon Recuero, CEO of Kinto, shared: “Kinto is built to foster long-term, sustainable growth in decentralized finance. The $K listing is not just a token launch, but a testament to the fact that fair tokenomics and real financial utility can exist in the crypto space. The industry needs to move beyond short-term gains and focus on building real financial infrastructure that delivers value to users.”
