    @Nakamotolisk @krakenfx If kraken falls, there really is no hope for this market. These guys are unironically the most legit exchange with no 100x perp gambling bullshit. I would be shocked if they are having issues, but as you say fail to prepare, prepare to fail

  • Carol_VanCleef Carol Van Cleef (@Carol_VanCleef) reported

    @jespow @krakenfx Point well taken on settlement. For the uninitiated it is an important distinction. GeoIP is KYC - Knowing where your customer is. Not required by law but is good practice to avoid a violation sanctions laws. Use of GeoIP is important mitigant if transaction goes thru.

    cz_binance: @Tree_of_Alpha @krakenfx @jespow Not saying there are definitely problems with a layoff. Just about the risk management principles. Also, an OG doesn't mean risk free. Anyway, not against Kraken or anything. Just saying... Your critique is fair too.

  • chasebtc ChaseBTC (@chasebtc) reported

    @jespow @krakenfx @jespow can you share what role or roles were most impacted by this layoff. I.e customer support, marketing, middle mgmt, etc? Trying to better understand which position(s) had the most surplus.

    @WhaleCoinTalk @krakenfx Settle down the payment is good for them in their side.

  • XRPositive rodney.xrp (@XRPositive) reported

    @AltcoinDailyio @krakenfx above all else!! A much better support experience. No issues with liquidity when buying/selling and no convenient “exchange down for maintenance” BS during volatile times in the market. A more robust trading platform. A far less glitchy user experience. Kraken FTW 🙌

    @jscriptcoder @jespow @krakenfx Sorry to hear that. You have lots of company. If you need help let me know.

  • jespow Jesse Powell (@jespow) reported

    @smolwet @Carol_VanCleef @krakenfx It's a very complicated issue with online accounts. You can't always be sure it's even the account owner logging in. Could be a hacker. Could be they're using a VPN. Could be they're in an embassy or just on a layover at the airport. The IP doesn't tell you where the person is.

  • Mik_e986 Mike (@Mik_e986) reported

    @maxp0d Krakensupport does not care about you. And they probably listen to does with serious complains how can I help you ?

  • jespow Jesse Powell (@jespow) reported

    @Carol_VanCleef @krakenfx To be clear the payment is _for_ a settlement, not a fine, of a self-disclosed potential issue. The GeoIP thing is complicated and it's not about KYC. People can register in one place and travel to another. GeoIP databases can become stale and aren't perfect. People use proxies.

  • Zeeblefritz Zoltan X Zeeblefritz (@Zeeblefritz) reported

    @coinbase advanced trade is absolute trash, give me back my pro. Hey @krakenfx sell me on your exchange my go to just shut down.

  • Smurflicious3 Smurflicious (@Smurflicious3) reported

    @krakenfx Hey, the parachains page on the kraken site is not as useful as it could be. There needs to be a way to see historical ones I funded that did not pay out, so I can avoid them in future.

  • GMaestas2 GMaestas (@GMaestas2) reported

    @HugoPhilion @krakenfx Good afternoon Hugo. Who do I contact to initiate a support ticket to get the Songbird Explorer fixed to allow for transaction history csv file to be downloaded? Asked "Songbird Community" and was told the capability has not been working for some time Please advise

  • du5_t1 51 (@du5_t1) reported

    🚨Kraken, the world’s third-largest crypto exchange by volume, is laying off 1,100 employees, or about 30% of its workforce. Also, my deposit to them was rejecting by an intermediate bank for the first time. Beware regulators are cracking down behind the sense. 🚨 @krakenfx

  • high_fades rabbits (@high_fades) reported

    @Nakamotolisk @jespow @krakenfx working fine for me but i'm using uk faster payments service; my bank transfers/receives to/from kraken's uk domiciled bank & exchange credits/debits in 15mins. it's insanely fast. also, imho i'd literally worry about every single other entity in crypto ahead of them

  • motykataras Taras Motyka 🇺🇦 (@motykataras) reported

    @krakensupport hi guys, hydradx allowed transfers yesterday, I want to ask some questions. 1) On your site in the list of auctions, wrong logo for hydraDX, could you change it? 2) When will the rewards withdrawals be allowed? The hydradx team allowed token transfers yesterday.

  • Just_Chuck_626 Chuck (@Just_Chuck_626) reported

    @krakenfx so, the website is inaccessible.... wut up?

  • PablitoTrading Pa₿lo Ξcobar (@PablitoTrading) reported

    @Nakamotolisk @krakenfx Withdrawls on FIAT also still working

  • pabloNguida Pablo Nahuel Guida (@pabloNguida) reported

    @krakensupport I’m here because the support is not helping me.

  • smolwet Clam (RIP Crypto 08.11.22) (@smolwet) reported

    @Carol_VanCleef @jespow @krakenfx GeoIP blocking is a money pit that creates more problems than it solves.

  • Hotofftheblocks Hotofftheblockchain (@Hotofftheblocks) reported

    BLOCK BYTES: @krakenfx has laid off 1,100 employees citing the slowing of customer demands due to macroeconomics.

  • Ham0_Elsayed Mohamed Elsayed (@Ham0_Elsayed) reported

    @TrustWallet @krakenfx How do I contact support? I have a problem with the wallet

  • notablebuyer notablebuyer.eth (@notablebuyer) reported

    @Nakamotolisk @krakenfx While taking money off centralized exchanges can't hurt I really don't believe Kraken is a scam. If there are withdrawal problems I think it's different reasons.

  • JasonThriver Jason Asher (@JasonThriver) reported

    @jespow @krakenfx Aren't we near the bottom of this bear market? Seems like 4 months from now (1 yr from halving), which you are paying next 4 months salary & benefits... you'll wish you had all those trained krakenites back & working as market heads back up.

  • peterluke213 SaltyDawgVT (@peterluke213) reported

    Also in the beginning of the Interview @jespow said that he encourages people to have self custody unless they wish to trade. Given that @krakenfx supports the #LightningNetwork this seems authentic and I fully support that statement and LN support. Any exchange should do so 9/x

  • PhoenixSmith0 Phoenix Smith (@PhoenixSmith0) reported

    @Biotech2k1 @krakenfx I use them for onboarding fiat, their customer service is A1 from my experience

  • KeriHegwald Mylarmeup@gmail.com (@KeriHegwald) reported

    @krakenfx You thought CRACK ADDICTION was a reason to support correctional corp & CPS, UGM , BAILBONDS & POLICE? War on drugs was a COVER for the REAL ADDICTS ! Expose truth ! It’s real bad, but this is real life !

  • Crypt0Entropy Entropy (@Crypt0Entropy) reported

    @AnonFreely @krakensupport Yeah, pretty scary times. All my trading assets are on Kraken and Coinbase. Long-term holds are on my Ledger...but hell...if most of the major exchanges go down, good luck getting any sort of liquidity for cold-storage coins either.
