Hira (@Hiraweb3) reportedUSDe from @ethena landing on @krakenfx with a 4.5% yield sounds simple. but the interesting part is what sits underneath. the yield isn’t fixed. it’s driven by perp funding, which means it can move significantly as market conditions change. we’ve already seen funding-heavy periods push USDe yields well above 15%. now Kraken is packaging that exposure into something regular users can access without dealing with delta-neutral strategies themselves. the bigger question: how many people clicking “earn 4.5%” actually understand what they’re holding?

Salty Sherry (@SaltySheriKoko) reported@CaptainSteven52 @krakensupport They don’t respond to any of my holds. Terrible company. They are taking advantage of AML laws to lock funds just because (suspected scams). First it said a 5 day review. Now it’s 90 days. Just so they can use my assets.

Ronaldo🧡DOG BITCOIN🇧🇷 (@ronaldocryptdog) reported@bnb_girl1 Most people missed out on Bitcoin at $1… Then at $100… Then at $1,000. They watched others change their lives forever. Now, history is offering a second chance. $DOG isn't just another memecoin. It is the people's coin within the Bitcoin ecosystem. A real opportunity to get in early again before the rest of the world wakes up. Don't be the person who says "I almost bought it" all over again. $DOG. The second chance is here. $DOG is available on @krakenfx. When Bitcoin explodes, $DOG will go with it, and there won't be another chance to buy it cheap. $DOG was created in the final block of the 2024 halving by the Runestone system. Study $DOG and change your life.

Delvyo Chieque (@delvyo_chieque) reportedhi @krakensupport 16 days ago I deposited €400 to pay my university tuition, but my account was restricted right after and the money vanished without a trace. Holding my tuition funds without any email or update is completely disrespectful. Please send me a DM! Or help me solve

WWJD (@JW_WWJD) reportedthis? I’ve been experiencing unusually fast losses on my Funded accounts, so I started documenting the pricing. These two screenshots were taken at 6:00 PM — same token, KAITO, inside Kraken. Regular Kraken: $0.7211 Kraken Funded: $0.7008 That’s about a 2.8% difference at the exact same time. Earlier today I documented even larger discrepancies of roughly 8–9%. When a Funded Challenge has strict maximum-loss limits, these price differences can have a major impact on whether an account survives. This has happened repeatedly over several days and across two of my Funded accounts. I’ve contacted Kraken Support and asked for a formal investigation. I have timestamped screenshots documenting everything. I’d like an explanation of what price feed Kraken Funded is using and why it differs this substantially from Kraken’s own displayed market price. @krakenfx Please investigate

Md Sujon (@divnomiz19) reportedI’ve been using Kraken for a long time, and I always assumed it was a reliable exchange because of its reputation. But after my recent experiences, I’m honestly extremely disappointed with Kraken’s customer support. Their live chat support is frustrating. You can wait a long time just to get an agent, explain the entire issue, and then be told: “Your case has been forwarded to our email support team. They will get back to you.” If live chat can’t resolve even simple issues and everything is pushed to email support, what is the purpose of having live chat? Recently, I accidentally deposited USDT instead of USDC into my Kraken account. The deposit is visible in my account but hasn’t been credited. I contacted live support, provided all the requested information, and was told that the case had been escalated to the email team. It has now been several days with no meaningful update. What makes this even more frustrating is that Kraken’s own terms say USDT deposits and withdrawals are supported for EEA clients, even though USDT cannot be traded. I’m not asking to trade it—I simply asked Kraken to credit the deposit so I can withdraw it. Still, I’m being told to wait for an email response. And this isn’t my only bad experience. I previously deposited almost $100 worth of USDC using the BSC network by mistake, even though Kraken doesn’t support USDC deposits on BSC. I understand that mistakes are the user’s responsibility, but we are human and mistakes happen. Many major exchanges have recovery processes for unsupported-network deposits. Kraken simply told me that they couldn’t recover the funds. I understand that exchanges have security procedures and cannot recover every deposit. But completely lacking a reasonable recovery process, combined with extremely slow customer support, makes it very difficult to trust the platform with your funds. I’m genuinely disappointed with Kraken. A top-tier exchange should have a much better support and asset-recovery system. @krakenfx, I hope you seriously improve this experience for your customers. @Krak
