To use KuCoin's cryptocurrency exchange platform, you'll need to either log in to an existing account or sign up and register for a new one. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to do both:
Logging In to KuCoin:
If you already have a KuCoin account, here's how to log in:
- Open Your Web Browser: Launch your preferred web browser on your computer or mobile device.
- Visit the KuCoin Website: Type "https://www.kucoin.com" into your browser's address bar and press Enter to access the official KuCoin website.

- Email or Phone Number: Input the email address or phone number associated with your KuCoin account.
- Password: Enter your KuCoin account password. Ensure that you type it correctly.
- Complete Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) (if enabled):
- If you have 2FA enabled for added security, you'll be prompted to enter the verification code generated by your authenticator app or sent to your registered mobile number or email address.
- Click the "Log In" Button: Once you've entered your credentials and, if applicable, completed 2FA, click the "Log In" button to access your KuCoin account.

If you don't have a KuCoin account yet, follow these steps to register and sign up for a new one:
- Open Your Web Browser: Launch your preferred web browser.
