"We acquired Anime.com, soon to launch alongside Animecoin as the home for global anime fandom," Azuki wrote on X. "And now, together with the Animecoin Foundation, we’re forging the next arc for anime ... Our mission remains the same: build the open anime universe."
The token will be distributed with a heavy focus on community, with 50.5% of the total supply being allocated to the community, 37.5% of which will be fully unlocked at launch whilst an additional 13% "will be managed by ANIME holders through the future AnimeDAO to fund community incentives and initiatives."
The company's team and advisors will receive 15.6% of supply bound by a three-year vesting schedule.
The move to release a native token follows Pudgy Penguins, which issued PENGU in December which now has a market cap of $1.87 billion.

KuCoin captured a record share of centralised exchange volume in 2025, with more than $1.25tn traded as its volumes grew faster than the wider crypto market.
Ano ang dapat malaman:
- KuCoin recorded over $1.25 trillion in total trading volume in 2025, equivalent to an average of roughly $114 billion per month, marking its strongest year on record.
- This performance translated into an all-time high share of centralised exchange volume, as KuCoin’s activity expanded faster than aggregate CEX volumes, which slowed during periods of lower market volatility.
- Spot and derivatives volumes were evenly split, each exceeding $500 billion for the year, signalling broad-based usage rather than reliance on a single product line.
- Altcoins accounted for the majority of trading activity, reinforcing KuCoin’s role as a primary liquidity venue beyond BTC and ETH at a time when majors saw more muted turnover.
- Even as overall crypto volumes softened mid-year, KuCoin maintained elevated baseline activity, indicating structurally higher user engagement rather than short-lived volume spikes.
