The offering follows Kraken’s acquisition of Bitnomial and comes amid a broader push to bring crypto derivatives trading onshore.
Kraken on Monday launched perpetual futures trading for eligible US users through Bitnomial, expanding its domestic derivatives offerings months after acquiring the federally regulated exchange.
The products are available through Kraken Pro and include contracts tied to major cryptocurrencies including Bitcoin (BTC), Ether (ETH), Solana (SOL), XRP (XRP), Cardano (ADA), Chainlink (LINK), Dogecoin (DOGE), Litecoin (LTC) and Avalanche (AVAX).
According to Monday’s announcement, the contracts share the same futures wallet as Kraken’s existing CME-listed crypto futures products, allowing traders to manage both positions from a single account.
