    @krakenfx What ********? Good that you got charged by SEC, this is absolutely wrong

    @FmWheels @krakenfx What are emblem vault and ordinals? How can those help pump up $coval value?

  • nachodonUST nachodon (@nachodonUST) reported

    Hearing lots of "@GaryGensler isn't wrong on this one" & that the @krakenfx anti-staking moves actually help not hurt crypto / #bitcoin Here's why that's a horrible take;

  • always_gambling AlwaysGambling (@always_gambling) reported

    @RobMcGirr1 @krakenfx There is definitely a problem rn! Kraken insurances can be no longer bought! Be careful!

  • mira_hurley Mira Hurley (@mira_hurley) reported

    @Ghostbanned7 @vinibarbosabr @krakenfx Sure, and I don't necessarily disagree. The issue is that by doing this the SEC can essentially divide and conquer. I can think of criticisms with almost every crypto. Nano is quite insulated IMO, but if everything except Nano dies it might still not be good for crypto.

  • Techemist Fran Strajnar (@Techemist) reported

    @bag3Lb0y @AP_Abacus @krakenfx The trend is obvious. Similar regulatory capture problems right across Canada, UK, NZ, AUS etc Pretty clear what's going on at this point.

  • SentryAndLegate Sentry & Legate | ꜩ (sentry.tez) (@SentryAndLegate) reported

    @krakenfx did proof-of-reserves before it was cool, did not degen customer funds for "yield", puts security top-of-mind on the platform, operates in a regulated jurisdiction, yet ...

  • ttd_tweets The Token Dispatch (@ttd_tweets) reported

    Crypto exchange, @krakenfx, is facing some heat from the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). They have been alleged of offering unregistered securities through their crypto staking-as-a-service platform, and now they have to pay a hefty $30 million to settle the charges.

  • goldysae RITESH TRIVEDI (@goldysae) reported

    @AP_Abacus @krakenfx Bitcoin has no staking reward or % yield and yet all those people who were advocating Bitcoin are now worried about this industry due to FED shut down on staking. Wierd!

  • wagmi_vc WAGMI Ventures (@wagmi_vc) reported

    And one day later the SEC charged #crypto exchange @krakenfx "with failing to register the offer and sale of their crypto-asset staking-as-a-service program"

  • thetokenist The Tokenist (@thetokenist) reported

    2/ Kraken Fined $30M, Forced to Shut Down Staking in US Crypto exchange @krakenfx paid $30M in fines and agreed to shut down its US staking service following an SEC settlement.

  • bizdevelo Yas | 🔮🌌 (@bizdevelo) reported

    The main target here is the so-called 'Staking as a Service', and not just staking in general. Most providers of 'Staking as a Service' are centralized exchanges such as @binance, @coinbase and @krakenfx. 👇

  • CryptoInv2023 Crypto News (@CryptoInv2023) reported

    @krakenfx agreed to shut crypto-staking service in @SECgov settlement, according to a source. #SEC #CryptoNews

  • jdellama jeffD (@jdellama) reported

    My $.02 is that the SEC issue with @krakenfx is fair and will be a + in the long run. 3rd parties with any custody of your coins is no good. Train the populous to secure their coins and never leave on CXs

  • fxwisdom1 Daddy Lender: Intergalactic Lender of Last Resort (@fxwisdom1) reported

    @Marcolg84 @jespow @krakenfx the SEC was fooled by the fraudster They was on berni, 2 investigations &3 examinations. Some were conducted before Harry's investigation & couldn't find anything on him until there 2008 crisis I dont find big issue w/ the SEC in the series Perhaps they should've more decisive

  • BitcoinDesigns Physical Bitcoin Art (@BitcoinDesigns) reported

    Back in 2017-2018 if what happened to @krakenfx occurred #bitcoin    would've dumped hardcore.. Nowadays, people are much more educated and the truth about #crypto and staking casinos has been spread. Tic tok next block

  • RobMcGirr1 Rob McGirr Ⓜ️ 🕸️ (@RobMcGirr1) reported

    Any buddy else having issues with withdrawals on @krakenfx ?

  • cryptobull3232 Baller 👑 (@cryptobull3232) reported

    @Thetarian11 @thewilliamlehr @krakenfx Exchanges take peoples BTC, ETH, lock them up, give them a **** token instead plus ridiculous interest for what Then they take your BTC and ETH and lend it out or leverage them, or actually steal them like FTX and all of a sudden freeze withdrawals Come on, you’ve seen this

  • fxwisdom1 Daddy Lender: Intergalactic Lender of Last Resort (@fxwisdom1) reported

    @Marcolg84 @jespow @krakenfx There's no use to blame the US regulation other than you self for neglecting the jurisdiction where you accepts the client Even some countries block access to our website from their country They block it for protecting the public taking risk at high leverage brokerages

  • Ginstitutional Jose Nietzsche (@Ginstitutional) reported

    While the SEC after #ftx is going all in to lose their credibility, I find the behaviour of other crypto firms like @coinbase & co trying to distancing themselves from kraken equally disgusting 🤮 Big support to @krakenfx and @jespow. We should stand together as an industry!

  • pivox YuBWeqmF (@pivox) reported

    @Wiiinnie @krakenfx Hi, I have been staking my ADA with your pool through Trust Wallet. However it has been now more than 24 hours since I claimed my rewards and the transaction is still "Pending" and I haven't gotten my rewards yet... Care to explain what's the issue here? thx.

  • Marcolg84 Marco Gomes (@Marcolg84) reported

    @fxwisdom1 @jespow @krakenfx Why you assume Kraken and others hasn't done that? Once again, why arrogantly dismiss the blame? Is there for you the minimal remote possibility that the problem comes from the SEC?

  • Abb2606 Habib (@Abb2606) reported

    @krakenfx 800k because bitcoin always bulis and Don't care about bad global issues

  • 0xvanillacream Vanilla Cream ⛩ 🫘 (@0xvanillacream) reported

  • poofyhairguy cardboardboxer.Eth (@poofyhairguy) reported

    With exchanges and centralized staking services they run the servers and they do the “work” and take a cut of the returns. Which means the staking service they offer is a security even if direct staking isn’t according to new regulations. That is why @krakenfx is walking away 4/5

  • wagmi_vc WAGMI Ventures (@wagmi_vc) reported

    @krakenfx decided to settle with the @SECGov after the charges were brought to them and closed down staking services for their users and paid a $30 million fine

  • JonathanClark25 Jonathan Clark (@JonathanClark25) reported

    @EleanorTerrett @krakenfx @HesterPeirce Shut down staking? If that doesn't show you Ginsler is paid for by the banks nothing else will, banks can't compete with crypto returns so they are lining Gary's pockets to put a stop to it! After all what's wrong with 0.01% on your money.

  • bizdevelo Yas | 🔮🌌 (@bizdevelo) reported

    The crypto exchange @krakenfx agreed to shut down its US crypto staking service and pay 30 million in penalties to settle in US securities and exchange commission charges. 👇
