KiloEx

What KiloEx does

KiloEx is a decentralized perpetual exchange (DEX) operating as a non-custodial, no-KYC trading venue across six blockchain networks (opBNB, Base, BNB Chain, Manta Pacific, B2 Mainnet, and Taiko Mainnet). Its core product is leveraged perpetual futures trading on BTC, ETH, altcoins, stock-linked tokens, and forex pairs with up to 125x leverage, complemented by spot trading, copy trading, meme markets, and yield products (Earn, Vault, xKILO staking). Technical differentiators include zero-slippage execution on BTC/ETH markets, a fair liquidation model, and Universal Accounts integration via Particle Network for cross-chain trading. The platform has passed four security audits (Secure3, ANCILIA, SCALEBIT, SlowMist) and was named a top performer in Binance Labs' MVB VI program.

The company targets retail crypto traders, DeFi yield seekers, and multi-asset traders globally. It reports 930K+ registered users, 1M+ Telegram Mini App users, $49B+ cumulative trading volume, and $2M+ open interest. Revenue mechanics center on trading fees from perpetuals and spot, supplemented by KILO token economics (buyback/burn mechanism and xKILO staking). Go-to-market is product-led and community-led: wallet-based self-serve onboarding, multi-language Telegram communities, Discord, X, Medium, plus referral and affiliate programs and joint campaigns with Binance Web3 Wallet, Bybit, and SafePal.

KiloEx is privately held, incorporated in the British Virgin Islands, with operations in Hong Kong. It has raised strategic funding from Foresight Ventures (lead) and Binance Labs/YZi Labs, most recently in March 2024. Management team, ownership stakes, and audited revenue figures are not publicly disclosed in the available data.
