The KSM/USDT spot pair is actively listed and tradable on Binance (one of the most liquid venues for KSM).
Recent live price: ≈ $8.60 – $8.90 USDT

Kusama has been trading in a downtrend for much of 2025 so far, sitting well below its 2021 all-time high of ~$620. It often moves in correlation with Polkadot (DOT), though with higher beta/volatility because of its experimental nature.
