-
Grok (@grok) reported@winners_only_ @DocumentingBTC @krakenfx Yes, confirmed. This happened on March 4, 2026, when the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City approved a limited-purpose master account for Kraken Financial (Kraken's Wyoming-chartered bank). It’s the first digital asset bank to gain direct access to U.S. payment systems like Fedwire, bypassing intermediary banks for faster, cheaper institutional fiat settlements. The approval is for an initial one-year term with tailored restrictions based on risk profile—no full banking privileges like FDIC insurance or interest on reserves. Official announcement from Kraken and the KC Fed.

Chaps (@chapscode) reported@krakensupport Hello, I got a mapping problem with your assets codes. For example, looking at the data from your API for asset pairs, we can see XBT/USD. But when we want to subscribe to the Ticker with it, it says unsupported. The accepted value is BTC/USD. Where can I find a good mapping?
-
INVEST (@invest) reported@NooskcajLeahcim @DocumentingBTC @krakenfx Yes, but it's a one-year pilot. March 2027 is the real deadline. If Fed doesn't renew, it was just controlled access. The permanence question is open.

berdushsol (@berdushsol) reported@krakenfx Let me give the ticker. If it pass 1M(which is near impossible because its at 3K now lol) in 24 hour would you list it? If deal, this could be the next big narrative tho 😎 what you say kraken?

InfoSpace OG (@InfoSpace_OG) reported@zachxbt @krakenfx @Payward The real issue is these CEXes supporting the manipulations They're the ones that keep fueling the Crimes

KINGVALEX (@VALELORDX) reported@MarioSewNice @CryptoYeezussss @krakenfx Idk why ******** you people keep tagging me on peoples pages I never even heard of , you think I give a **** about somebody else’s pockets LIKE YOU. Worry about what YOU DOING instead of other people’s pockets and stop tagging me in random peoples pages. Nobody ASKED YOU.
-
Mors Ab Alto (@2Aminutemen) reported@fair__light @krakenfx I assume criminals can pull **** like that off in the UK / London and probably places like Australia because their population has allowed their government to disarm them. In the States, there’s high probability you will be 🔫 by *someone*
-
Cody C (@codycladd1) reported@krakenfx @krakenpro @KrakenDesktop Why is AIR/USD still in cancel-only mode?! My funds have been locked up for over two weeks in this coin. The fact there has been no further update is insane to me. Extremely unprofessional and scammy. As a 5+ year Kraken customer, disgusted!
-
Shawn Sully (@claudecademic) reported@c7five @krakenfx Why don’t you hire people from developed countries? I won’t put my money on a platform that I have to hope for their third world support staff to not get bribed by criminals to expose my data. Banks don’t hire support staff in third world countries either.
-
יוסף 🇺🇸 (@boardkeys) reported@claudecademic @c7five @krakenfx “Banks don’t hire support staff in third world countries either.” maybe not in europe but in the USA this is common practice lol businesses do not care about the quality of services they only care about their profits
-
De Flandres (@Pacifica2525) reported@LiteStrategy @krakenfx What he/she meant to say was: "OG crypto, Litecoin, developing DeFi L2s, including yield opportunities, with optional privacy, gaining institutional level attention, without being a Proof of Stake coin." Now, all we need are crypto exchanges to support MWEB for Litecoiners.

Rid (@ridplanning) reportedDay 42 @krakensupport and @arjunsethi still no help on my #ewt deposit. You need #eth network support for this token. Please help! @energywebx

FundedPropTraders.com (@fundproptraders) reportedCrazy story unfolding at @krakenfx — a criminal group is now attempting to extort them with videos of internal support systems after two insiders were caught accessing limited client data. Key takeaways: No systems were breached, no funds were ever at risk, and Kraken is refusing to pay or negotiate with the bad actors. They’ve already involved law enforcement and are pursuing arrests. At @fundproptraders we operate with the same uncompromising focus on security, rapid response, and protecting our traders above all else. This is a stark reminder why ironclad internal controls and zero tolerance for insider threats matter in every part of finance. Respect for the transparent update.

Craig Torres (@ctorresreporter) reported@hannahdlang of @reuters has a nice scoop today , finally detailing what exactly the Fed gave @krakenfx with its master account. The idea that the Fed was running a live crypto bank ``experiment'' and hiding what permissions Kraken had was an absurd lack of transparency. Per Hannah: --Kraken has access to Fedwire and can hold ``limited'' balances overnight. --Cannot access interest on reserves, no access to ACH, or FedNow, no access to the discount window. --Hannah, reports, I think that Kraken doesn't want to say whether it has access to daylight overdraft. There are FOIAs filed to get this information, so chapeau to Hannah. Big question of daylight overdraft needs to be answered at some point.
