Kraken, did you forgot the last bullrun and how useless kraken was?
To be fair it is not (yet) as bad as it was 1-2 years ago, but since 10-15 minutes trading at kraken is impossible, as it is always when price is moving fast. This is true for API [520] and for website (stuck at "submit order" page).

Common, do you really want again to loose thousands of customers because your website/trading engine is not stable during price movements?!?!
I can't believe that kraken is again so bad, you learned nothing from the last time?

edit: it is going over 1 hour now!

As your team appears to be utterly incompetent at establishing banking relations perhaps consider engaging a specialist firm like https://www.healyconsultants.com/

It has gotten beyond ridiculous how everyone else has managed to improve and fix their banking side and yet 1.5 years later and you guys haven't managed to do anything.

My account got disabled without notice since 2 days and I do not know, why it was done.
Restore form has been filled already yesterday.

Sampam,

At the moment, the team doesn't have any news or updates regarding USD funding for international individuals.

Any update? Another month has passed by, 6 months of it in this thread so far.

15 minutes, on average...

How long on average does it take for a litecoin transfer from my wallet to show up in my kraken account?

thanx

Hi there!

Please note, Kraken has not used the services of Crypto Capital for many years now, so we are completely unaffected by anything involving their service.

We are currently working on bringing a new international USD funding service to our platform, hopefully we will have this available for our clients very soon!

If you have any questions, we are happy to help!

Kraken should make a twitter poll and ask the crypto community if they think you're FUDing, then delist you from the internet!!! 

Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain!

on one hand, only accredited investors are allowed (proof of tax returns or assets required). on the other hand, the minimum investment is $1000. a bit puzzling, but okay! i'd chuck $1k or $2k at it for fun if i could, but i don't meet the qualifications.


gee, i sure hope this inability to service international USD wires and the fundraising efforts aren't both related to the money seizure from crypto capital, of whom kraken was a client.....

Is anyone going to invest in Kraken? They just announced that you can get equity with a minimum investment of $1000 :O

More than a year isn't enough time?

Sampam,

Unfortunately we do not have any updates at this time, however this is subject to change shortly. Once we received any news or developments regarding USD funding for international individuals, we’ll make certain to update everyone in this thread.

Yeah you are right, keep using the exchanges that get hacked over and over again without learning how to implement proper security.

Also Kraken didn't only improve it's trading engine but also it's HW/performance.

I don't see things getting nearly as bad as last time ever again for them. But only future will tell.

Any update on this USD for international personal clients? Almost 4 months have passed....

Weird, it's like if we are talking about 2 different exchanges, I have the total opposite experience with Kraken and I'm a bit old user (maybe since 2014-15). I was still here even when the site was unusable for months, I was hitting this fucking F5 button to refresh the page like a freak lol

I left Kraken last year due to their extremely bad service, but most important due to their unreliable trade engine. A buddy of mine told me that things were going better so I re-started trading on Kraken a month or 2 ago. However, the faults (even though they were a bit less often) were the same as when I left, maybe a bit less than last year, so one could argue that it was almost on an acceptable level. Nonetheless, from my perspective they did not solve an ancient problem. And from this week on we are definitely at the same level as last year.

And about the support, they give the same dronish answers as before, they might have gotten faster at replies, but the quality is even less than before. A social bot would suffice. And even worse, Kraken uses the same type of excuse for their bad service as the last time, only this time they have a fancy new website. So no, nothing has really changed at Kraken over the past year(s). ROFL. It is the same shitty trade engine and the same sort of dronish support without any relevant competence nor interest to actually solve these problems. But have fun trading there. I will just take the profits from this week, and move my funds to better and more reliable exchanges. (as also Totscha advises)

@LeGaulois: There is an almost countless number of exchanges which have better trade engines. Maybe they had some issue is in the past, but at least they fixed the issues and one can now reliably place and cancel orders without problems, even at the highest volume peaks.

Hey, I've been with them since the start. And they still use the same horrible default trading UI they had in 2013. Not sure why they don't switch to the new one that's been available for a while and is actually usable. Every other exchange has made great UI improvements during this time.

The other thing is their performance. It was decent in 2013. Then during the 2014-2016 bear market it was periodically awful (unworkable for a few hours every few days). When the crazy 2017 bull market started, the site just died. And it was dead for several months (nov-feb), completely useless. I transfered some crypto there at the beginning of the bull market and was unable to trade at the peak. It took me 5-6 hours of tries to make a single withdrawal to Bitstamp where I was actually able to trade. We warned them that their site had performance issues at peaks for two years before that, but they just didn't want to invest in better infrastructure.

If you plan to sell during the next peak, steer clear of Kraken
