  @krakensupport @Sstepbndn There is a support department. We want it to work, no to DM an X account. Stop with this way of doing things.

  Attention all @krakenfx / @krakenpro users. Imagine being new to crypto. You make your first careful investment: €10. One second later, you're down 5%. Not because the market moved. Because you used Kraken's "convenient" Convert tool. €10 → 11.15 USDC → €9.51. Round trip. Nothing traded. Nothing moved. That's not a fee. That's a tax on being new — wrapped as convenience, priced for people who don't know better yet. And it doesn't just hurt them. This is the first impression crypto gives every newcomer. We can do better.

  @krakenfx I tried emailing @krakenfx before, but they said their support team was busy. After I posted about it on X, they reopened my account—but the funds were gone. What a joke.

  Kraken paid $600 million for Reap while its OCC charter sits in a queue. It doesn't need Reap to trade coins. It needs Reap to move dollars, issue cards, and settle stablecoin payments the moment the charter clears. The exchange was always the front door. The back office is where the money sits. $600 million is the price of skipping the build, paid while the regulator still hasn't answered. @krakenfx doesn't want to fight banks. It wants to be one.

  The biggest thing holding bittensor:native back is not the tech. It is that nobody can actually buy the subnets. Alpha tokens only trade against TAO. That is protocol design, not an exchange choice. Same structure as early crypto, when every alt traded in BTC pairs and you had to buy BTC first to buy anything else. The difference however is exchanges broke BTC pairing by listing USD pairs. dTAO cannot be broken that way. Every alpha purchase routes through TAO by construction. Structural demand, permanently wired in. But only if the pipes get built. The missing piece is the liquidity map. Stables in, intelligent routing through TAO, alpha out, slippage managed against thin subnet pools. Whoever builds that owns the front door to the entire ecosystem. @krakenfx just became the first major exchange to integrate dTAO natively, with seven subnet tokens on its listings roadmap. The abstraction layer is starting. Retail will click buy in stables and never know they routed through TAO. That is the unlock.

  Exactly! The endgame for crypto is people using it without knowing they are, it's going to be seemless! For years crypto felt like its own world. The setup was too hard, the UX was rough, and you had to understand too much before you could do anything. That will change with AI, and Crypto will become AI rails or regular infrastructure. In the future, people will simply ask for custom tools, workflows, payments, automations, identity checks, escrow, settlement, authentication, data access, ownership transfers, and agent-to-agent transactions. Under the hood, crypto rails get picked over legacy rails because they're cheaper for that kind of work. Anything that has to transact, verify, authenticate, settle, permission, coordinate, or move value can run on crypto infrastructure. Sure...cards are fine when a person buys a coffee but when software pay software at a fraction of a cent ,or when money has to move across borders at 3am, they're going to break So the future for crypto, won't be user thinking "I am using crypto." - They'll simply think "this just works." That's the main shift this cycle. Crypto stops being a product you have to learn and becomes plumbing that agents use to build and transact at a fraction of today's cost. So bet on infrastructure, bet on @inkonchain & @krakenfx!

  👀 @krakenfx is eyeing a banking license in Europe 🇱🇹 Here's what's happening: Recent reports say that Kraken is targeting Lithuania to add a banking layer on top of its existing EU setup. Kraken already has: • MiCA authorization via the Central Bank of Ireland • A MiFID license through Cyprus That combo lets it offer regulated services across the EU, and it's been leaning on that status hard since MiCA enforcement kicked in on July 1. A banking license would push things further: • Direct rails between crypto trading and traditional banking • Stronger positioning for custody, payments, and institutional services And this isn't happening in isolation. Kraken Financial became the first crypto firm to get direct Fedwire access earlier this year in the US. CEO Arjun Sethi put it clearly at Money 2020 Europe: 💬 "The plan for the next 10 years is to get all of these licenses, either through buying an existing business, or going de novo in each region and starting from scratch." Crypto exchanges are quietly turning into banks, one license at a time.

  You can’t outwork a failed system. Let’s not lie. THE REASON WE ARE NOT LANDING REMOTE JOBS IN THE TECH SPACE ANYMORE WHEN WE GET THE SKILL IS BECAUSE OF WHERE WE ARE FROM. Your rejection emails don’t even get to the HR. And if it does once they see you are from Nigeria, they don’t want to do anything with you IMMEDIATELY. Think I’m capping? I was supposed to land a job to join the ux team for @krakenfx that pays me at least $10,000 a month especially with my understanding of crypto and how my passion for their service. I went through their interview and passed the stages. They loved me. But guess what? They see I’m from Nigeria and boom, I don’t get it. They even said in mail “We encourage you to revisit opportunities with Kraken should your location change” Nigeria you are killing dreams !
