Kraken

Crypto exchange and financial infrastructure

Kraken is one of the world's longest-standing crypto platforms, founded in 2011 and trusted by over 10 million individuals and institutions. It offers spot trading, margin, futures, staking and OTC services, with products built separately for retail investors and institutional clients rather than one interface stretched across both. Longevity is a substantive claim in this sector, where most venues have not survived a full cycle. Kraken sits within Payward, which also operates NinjaTrader, Breakout, xStocks and CF Benchmarks, and has spent fifteen years building globally accessible financial infrastructure toward an open financial system.
