CoinCollector (@boederzeng1) reported@krakensupport I was a verified customer. Kraken restricted my account without warning while I had an open futures position. UI/app blocked access, but API showed live exposure. I had to close via API, turning about -$26 into -$295. Ticket #21659447. Please escalate.

Deplorable A (@Crimson_n_Cream) reported@krakensupport So sent and got a brief contact, but now it has been over FOUR DAYS you have held my money, over something which should take five minutes to resolve and release pay to me. What gives?? Is this the customer service you give to all??

Maskripto (@fypdonk) reported@SA0bmh @kraken @mayurgupta77 I am speaking not only for myself, but for many other loyal, long-term users who are facing the same injustice. We have all fully complied with document requests to prove our funds are clean. Kraken’s current policy forcing innocent, verified users to obtain impossible government 'Specific Licences BVI' is not compliance, it is a failure of service. If we have proven our funds are legitimate, Kraken must provide a refund/reversal. Treat us with the fairness we deserve, unless you have concrete proof of illicit activity, stop trapping us and other innocent users in this impossible loop. #web3 #krakenfx

Ray (@primeray333) reported@krakenpro @krakenfx @follis_ #krakenfx #krakensupport are you going to compensate me for locking $H I even have documentation that I was chatting with you and wanted to withdraw when it was at .60 cents, it’s in your support messages. There’s no issue with $H gateway, you locked h for 9 days purposely
-
Pdxgtr (@Pdxgtr_35) reported@krakenlistings @krakenfx @CantonNetwork Help set up a two alert setting so I can set a high point alert and a low point alert for tokens please. I just missed a huge profit opportunity on monero cause of this. I could only set 1 alert, I need two. One for upper price and one for lower price points
-
Matrix589 (@ExpressClean1) reported@Bamaboy1XRP @krakensupport I think it might be a liquidity issue with the space x IPO tomorrow.. who knows
-
J (@jkc0le) reported@krakensupport @Rvn_net Your support queue is current over 500 minutes to speak to a live agent. I've had funds stuck and an open ticket for two weeks, where I've been told it has been escalated. To date your team can't tell me what the issue is or if my funds are even available/secure still. Wtf guys
-
Lorenzo (@Perafunk) reported@FabrizioRomano @krakenfx @FIFAWorldCup Boooo **** off
-
J (@jkc0le) reported@krakenfx Yo your new beholder platform is throwing error codes your engineers can't explain. Support is taking a month to get this dealt with, all while customer funds are stuck in earn vaults. When you doing something about this? @cobie we need a kraken support connect. You got one?
-
Maskripto (@fypdonk) reported@rednasyeah @krakensupport me too, same issue bro
-
zierl (@ShenQuant) reported@krakensupport yeah see this isnt real support lmao, maybe hire some more workers, absolute joke, and ive read HEAPS of people having this issue, seems only since bitcoin has been going down, wonder if you guys are misusing funds
-
DomainExpansion (@wdympon) reported@krakensupport sir i need help my verified its pending for long time ago ? @krakensupport
-
Ryukyuu 👩🚀 (@AkiraRyukyu) reported@Zain_Onchain @xStocksFi @krakenfx This feels like early access hype more than anything real yet
-
Maryvale (@PhxRasta) reported@FabrizioRomano @krakenfx @FIFAWorldCup ******* loser holy ****
-
Rednas (@rednasyeah) reported@krakensupport Thank you for getting back to me and the link. It specifies though that this is a UK specific ban of HTX, so how can this basically block all worldwide people that use, or have used, the htx platform? Perhaps there's something your legal team can do?
-
MetallicusTDBN (@Metallicuscj) reported@primeray333 @krakenfx That’s terrible, have you being able to get it resolved? I encounter same issue.
-
dafusia (@dafusiamusic) reported@krakensupport .@krakensupport @krakenfx There is no ground for KRAKEN to hold a customer's money hostage FOR 37 HOURS. THIS WAS NOT A WIRE TRANSFER- IT was SIMPLE INTERAC ETRANSFER. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE AND WILL BE REPORTED TO THE MEDIA IF I DONT RECEIVE A RESOLUTION AT ONCE.

Luke Dunshea (@elldeeone) reported@brt2412 @krakenfx @MEXC Yes, it's merely a business decision AFAIK. Some operate exclusively behind the scenes on top of Fireblocks. My understanding is that it's kinda like whitelabeling, the exchange is able to do whatever they want but all integrations run through fireblocks backend. So when a situation arises when a project isn't on fireblocks then thats a major blocker. I suppose they could make exceptions but it seems unlikely. For example, Kraken has been publicly discussed by those close to the integration as one of the most lengthy processes - apparently taking 6+ months by their devs to vet, test, build associated in-house infra to support it. I say all this but it seems the norm that most T1 exchanges seem to run their own infra so if your next question is related to Binance, i find it highly unlikely they don't have a complete custom in-house solution (this is all speculation tho).

Ray (@primeray333) reported@krakenfx Why was Kraken the only exchange having issues with $H? They locked humanity for 10 days, no other exchange did this. Most exchanges already started trading on the new contract. There are 40 exchanges that didn’t have an issue. @krakensupport
-
Matej (@matejbusic) reportedHi @jespow and @c7five I am disgruntled @krakenfx customer. Lately, Kraken has been freezing funds, no reason given. Communication cut off. 8th day today my $ frozen. I have in turn been warning people on X to stay away from Kraken. Is this really a good look for Kraken?

FTF 📜 (@XSpark10) reported@krakenfx You guys are Thieves! You treat your customers like **** theyll return it in kind. @krakenfx

penzlik.base.eth (@penzlyk_s) reportedIf you're in Ukraine and farming on Kraken, read this, frens. @krakenfx just dropped spot fees for Ukrainian Kraken Pro users through Aug 31, 2026. Maker goes from 0.22% to 0% Taker from 0.33% to just 0.05%. No forms, no begging support. It auto-applies to verified accounts (Intermediate and up). Here's the real play: cheaper fees mean cheaper volume. And volume is what feeds your Ink Points farm. You were going to trade anyway — now it costs you almost nothing to stack points while you do it. Zero-fee maker orders for the next few months is not something you sit out. You farming Ink, or still paying full freight?

Ennina†or ☧🪢 (@enni_nator) reported@Ruben20481 @krakenfx i cant neither. they say its only when you have android 15 but they will fix it soon
-
freedom (@theguardian1988) reported@krakensupport I've had withdrawals blocked for 4 days. I've been sending emails and trying to speak to a live operator for 4 days. It's a total blank slate. Zero support.
-
stupidtrader (@lostinthechart) reportedAnyone knows someone who works at @krakenfx ? With all the respect but their customers service only exists of extreme retards who cant even read properly. Scammy exchange it seems
-
Hypercall (by Synapse) (@SynapseProtocol) reported@macdegods No options in that feature set? These have consistently been Robinhood's single largest trading revenue line item *since they launched* and every other brokerage that breaks them out. CB acquiring Deribit + other crypto native platforms adding support (see @Bullish + @krakenfx pushes) SPX options alone turn over a month's worth of *all perp volume globally* every single day Feels like they have to be part of any "everything app", no?
