Introduction

I hardly write about promotions running on the KuCoin platform. KuCoin has multiple campaigns running every single week, and these campaigns usually have side events as well. Most of the time, I have problems understanding the promotion mechanics and simply just give up.

As I have recently taken an interest in platform native tokens, I paid more attention to today’s [29 March 2022] announcement:

KuCoin and the KCS Management Foundation jointly released the KCS Whitepaper

More information on the KCS whitepaper can be found at our article dedicated to KCS.

In celebration of the KCS whitepaper release, KuCoin is launching a week long celebration campaign.

Event Duration: 10:00:00, 03/29/2022 - 10:00:00, 04/03/2022 (UTC):

(Main Event) Celebrate KCS Super Week: Get Lottery Tickets to Win 21,000 KCS

My key interest lies in the main event with the attractive prizes. Basically, users have to go to the event page and answer crypto related quiz questions to get a lottery ticket to stand a chance to win something from the prize pool.

The grand prize is “5,000 KCS + LOMEN”. 5000 KCS is worth around USD$107,000 as of 29 March 2022. A LOMEN is a NFT. The fourth prize isn’t too shabby at around USD$107.

Notes:

  • The Lottery tickets are issued in a limited amount every day. First come, first served.
    • [Update 1 Apr 2022]: Previously the promotion mechanics stated that the number of lottery tickets was capped at 120k. This statement has since been removed and I am not sure if the cap is still there.
  • The lottery tickets are FREE, but you need to stake 1 KCS for each lottery ticket.
    • Staked KCS will be automatically returned to your Main Account within 7 workdays after the end of the event.
  • Most quiz questions are really simple.
    • it doesn’t matter if you get the answer incorrect, there are no penalties and you can just simply retry.
    • KuCoin’s objective is for users to gain knowledge from the questions.
  • Each user can get up to 100 lottery tickets.
    • if you accumulate 100 lottery tickets, the chances of winning the grand prize is 0.08333%. (not sure if still applicable as the total cap on lottery tickets has become unknown)

Team up to get more lottery tickets (use my UID: 66105722)

The campaign page says that users can get more lottery tickets by forming teams.

Steps:

  1. User A sends their UID to user B, inviting them to form a team.
  2. User B binds the referral code (i.e., user A’s UID) through the event page.
  3. The team is created, providing both user A and user B with a lottery ticket.
  • Users can share their UID to create teams with multiple friends. The more teams you create, the more lottery tickets you will earn. There are no limits to the amount of teams you can create.
  • A single user can only bind a referral code (i.e., other user’s UID) once.
  • To create a team, both users in the team must participate in the quiz and stake 1 KCS.
  • Join the KCS official community to form a team. Not sure how this works exactly.

My KuCoin UID is: 66105722. Do consider forming a team with me :)

Do act fast as there are only limited lottery tickets up for grabs daily.
