KuCoin PLAI VANRY tick size update is the primary keyword for this spot-market note. KuCoin said it will adjust tick sizes for PLAI-USDT and VANRY-USDT at 06:00 UTC on May 11, 2026.
CryptoSigy is covering the notice because tick-size changes affect execution, API behavior and quoted liquidity. This is not a price prediction; it is a routing and order-precision check.
What Happened
The official KuCoin notice says PLAI-USDT price tick size changes from 6 to 7 decimal places, while VANRY-USDT moves from 5 to 6. The table also shows quantity tick-size changes, with VANRY quantity precision moving from 4 to 0 and a 100 minimum order quantity.
KuCoin says existing orders will not be canceled because of the adjustment. It also says API users should use the exchange-info endpoint for the latest tick size, and that open and historic orders may display adjusted tick sizes with buy orders rounded down and sell orders rounded up.
Why It Matters
The update matters for bots and manual traders because old precision assumptions can create rejected orders, rounded displays or fills that look different from the original order screen. Thin pairs can be especially sensitive when price increments change.
For signal execution, tick size is part of the real edge. A setup can lose quality if the order ladder cannot express the intended price or if a bot keeps submitting stale increments after the rule change.
What To Watch Next
Watch the May 11 effective time, update any API symbol metadata and review resting orders before assuming the displayed price equals the original submitted precision. Traders should test small orders after the change before restoring normal size.
If spreads widen during the transition, wait for the book to settle. The clean signal is one where tick precision, order size and liquidity depth all support the intended entry.
