What is Kraken?
Kraken is a regulated cryptocurrency exchange based in California. It began life in 2011 and therefore is one of the earliest, most experienced exchanges which has stood the test of time. In addition, it is one of the few globally regulated crypto trading apps and therefore has greater trust within the global digital asset community. It’s also never been hacked – which is extremely rare for exchanges. Kraken is well known for being one of the largest Euro markets for cryptocurrencies and does not fake any volume like any other exchanges. Kraken released the Kraken Pro app which is free and accessible by anyone with a Kraken account. Let’s take a deeper look at the app.
