Truth Crusader Ӿ (@_TruthCrusader) reported@satoshizzle @krakenfx Thankfully ditched Coinbase awhile back for their lack of Nano support. Kraken and $XNO for the win!

BittBurger (@BittBurger) reportedHey @krakenfx @krakenpro - @krakenpro - Nearly $1.5 million just disappeared from my account when I initiated VAULT. No explanation. Just new warning emails that a suspicious "withdrawal" was initiated and my account is now "restricted" with a zero balance. No reply from support in nearly 24 hours. And I'm I'm not allowed to call anyone. Not a single Vault email or explanation. Just a zero balance and "we have locked your account". This level of incompetence and ****** messaging is quite frankly unforgivable. If initiating a Vault scares the **** out of your customers, empties their portfolio, and then locks down their account for possible fraud, you are not qualified to continue remaining in custody of my money.

Alex (@Alex57924649) reported@krakensupport what a piece of **** Kraken has become. Requesting more documents than a bank and making pressure on its clients. Those clients thatbtrust it for years and that made it a big exchange in the first place! Its became the ***** of EU regulators.

pcash890 🇵🇹 (@officialpcash) reported@krakenfx Since on Friday, I was told my complaint has been forwarded to the relevant team, This is 3 business working days later, I still haven’t receive any positive response or feedback. My coin is just hanging without any information concerning why and when it will be release.

Marcel van Oost (@oost_marcel) reported👀 @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.

Richard Watt (@YAGWG) reported@krakenfx I'd like to open a wallet with Kraken, but I've got a question or two that I've submitted via the privacy policy page's contact form (sorry, but I couldn't see any other email address on the site).
-
Dr. Evil (@denzil_dme54093) reportedI deposited the wrong crypto currency on the Kraken platform ( something they don’t accept) so I wrote to their support center… I knew the funds were lost ( in the back of my mind) The amazing support team kept in touch and I got the funds back. @krakenfx . Thank you.
-
Ronald Forensics (@Robobby1) reported@sibrie @krakenfx What’s the problem you’re dealing with? Do you need any help?
-
FUD (@kingfud) reported@eltuto98 @krakenfx Me either and nobody is helpful wtf
-
Alex (@Alex57924649) reported@krakensupport Kraken has became a joke, I tried to change some info on my account, in an hour I got emails from 3 different agents. Really? Is this customer support? Been a customer for many years and I dont even get a decent resolution to a simple matter with all requested documents sent?
-
Ou-Go (@TheHighlightSho) reportedExtremely disappointed by @krakenfx. New customer, spent a significant amount of money and they just blocked my withdrawal out of nowhere. Been blocked since Friday. Never happened to me on any other exchanges. Escalated a few times but no solutions offered. WTF. @krakensupport
-
MarkFromNL 🇳🇱 (@MarkUitNL) reported@Oluwa22km @FabrizioRomano @krakenfx Cause they payed FIFA to fix it for them.
-
TanManCan (@TannerW47087) reported@krakensupport Can anyone give me an actual ETA as to when we might finally be given access back to our Beldex(BDX) tokens? The only update given has been "We are continuing to investigate this issue." which really isn't an update at all... It's been a total of 22 days now...
-
Tompsom (@Tompsom0) reported@FabrizioRomano @krakenfx Argentina's the only team here with a real chance at lifting this. Switzerland will give them problems but Messi doesn't lose in knockouts when it matters. Final: Argentina vs Spain. Book it.
-
ram 敵対国家 🇵🇷 (@hostilearsenal) reported@krakenfx @Mastercard Please don't pay income tax, or let them integrate it into cryptocurrency, because that's sort of the entire problem. Most people should run an LLC, but they use tax for credit, well that forces income tax onto everyone. Also, if it's a corporation it's the wrong tax
-
R 🐙 (@_RahuI) reported@BeastTheMascot @krakenfx wtf, why not me
-
Kenneth Rognstad (@RognstadKenneth) reported@FabrizioRomano @krakenfx doesn't matter... it's a fake and staged show from fifa.. the winner is already planned.. the script has been told.. it's in the public.. fifa and infantino has been caught as ****.. and NOBODY do anything about it.. =S =( wtf?..
-
Pete! (@heyimpete123) reported@SapoNFTz @kingfud @krakenfx I’ll never give you fat **** holders a cent
-
PepecoinLFG (@PepecoinLFG) reportedyeah. perhaps @krakenfx needs to provide a direct Android apk download. Or it could be offered directly by @PepecoinNetwork . Distribution has always been a problem that needs to be solved.
-
Ričards (@ricards__k) reported@krakensupport How long do I have to wait for an answer from your support team? It has been over 24 hours already, it’s unacceptable.
-
blank (@ChefBoyarGeeze) reported@PardonMyTake @krakenfx I can't believe I'm typing this, but shut down Mount Rushmore Season immediately. Jesus ******* Christ. Try again in a couple of years.
-
Theoretical Physicist (@Theo_Physic) reported@krakensupport It is unbelievable that such a big project migrating from Polkadot to Base, people are talking about how impact DOT network, and that GLMR will focus on AI. And you haven't mentioned a single word about it. I'm just thinking to transfer all to the exchange that support migration.
-
Ricky Forbes (@Ricky9Forbes) reported@duffJwan @FabrizioRomano @krakenfx Good point. They love wrecking **** in Paris. I detest the place. Was there a few years ago and hated every second of the place.
-
WompWomp (@ImpactVanguard) reported@fasfas8t @krakensupport I had the same issue, guess what nothing happened still it's kinda silly.
-
Eduardo | The Cascade Axiom (@CascadeAxiom) reportedThis crypto company, @krakenfx , is garbage. Absolute disgrace. The people they sponsor and allow to represent their brand.... their influencers are scammers and thieves.

Lana ACA ⚽🇳🇬🐕🌲❤️ (@JideOluwalana) reported@Elizabe28161267 @FabrizioRomano @krakenfx If you like video game, we can fix a meeting, I will allow you to choose any team, either France or Norway.

Angry Fi5h🐡 (@ANGRYFI5HMUSIC) reported@FabrizioRomano @krakenfx Well since it's already been decided and we all know it's a bunch of horse **** it's gonna be Argentina

Coinjoined Chris ⚡ (@coinjoined) reported@AdamSimecka This is for the people falling victim to your drive by slop. Not for you because you are beyond saving Simecka: Michael Saylor would be an enormous stakeholder in a PoS system. In Bitcoin, however, he's primarily a holder who doesn't even self-custody, so his influence on consensus is limited. An economic node is an actor like @Bitrefill, @krakenfx, or any merchant, exchange, payment processor, or your own self-custody node that validates transactions and participates in the economy. Its significance is measured by the economic impact if it disappeared, not by the number of Bitcoin it owns. Running four nodes doesn't give you four votes. Owning 5 bitcoin doesn't give you 5 votes. But if you have a node that doesn't hold any bitcoin but routes 5000 transactions a day now that node is an economic node and would have an impact if it turned off. Bitcoin isn't governed by any single constituency. It is secured by proof of work, enforced by validating nodes, developed by contributors, and ultimately valued and adopted by the free market. Consensus only emerges when these groups broadly align. A minority in any one of them doesn't get to dictate the rules. Economic nodes are one constituency that must be convinced: not the only one. No single group gets to dictate Bitcoin's consensus. That's the entire point of rough consensus. If you fork off without meaningful economic support or miner support, your chain becomes vulnerable to 51% reorgs, struggles to attract sustained hash rate, and ultimately has to compete as a separate asset in the market. Markets decide which chain retains the Bitcoin ticker and economic value.
