Kraken, a global leader in cryptocurrency exchange services, has launched Kraken Derivatives US, a new platform designed to offer U.S. users access to CME-listed crypto futures and spot crypto assets—all within a regulated and compliant trading environment.
This new platform aims to provide a streamlined, secure, and capital-efficient experience for traders across the United States. Kraken Derivatives US is now available in Vermont, West Virginia, North Dakota, Mississippi, and Washington DC, with plans to expand to additional states in the near future.
A New Standard for Crypto and Beyond
Kraken Derivatives US introduces a unified trading interface that focuses on speed, reliability, and full regulatory oversight. With instant collateral transfers, users can seamlessly move funds between spot and derivatives accounts, making cross-market trading more efficient and responsive.
This platform is part of Kraken’s broader strategy to become a multi-asset trading hub. In addition to crypto, Kraken plans to expand into commodities, foreign exchange (FX), equities, and fixed income futures, giving users access to a wider range of financial markets under one roof.
The launch comes shortly after Kraken introduced commission-free stock trading, highlighting the company’s commitment to building a versatile trading ecosystem that serves both crypto enthusiasts and traditional market participants.
With Kraken Derivatives US, American traders now have access to a regulated and efficient trading solution that bridges the gap between digital assets and traditional finance—backed by one of the most trusted names in the industry.
