What it means

Users who trade the affected spot pairs are the group that would notice the change first, because KuCoin set a specific time for the tick-size adjustment. The timing is already fixed for Sept. 09, 2026 at 08:00 UTC, so the change is scheduled rather than open-ended.

What is still unknown from the Oct. 12 update is which spot pairs are included and what the new tick sizes are. The text only says there are updates on tick size for spot pairs, so the specific scope remains open unless the pair list is provided.
