Title: kraken !? Post by: 600watt on September 19, 2013, 09:09:42 AM why has kraken´s progress so little impact on this forum? the bitcoin economy needs more exchanges. why is there so little fuzz overhere about this one? or did i miss something ?

It's in the Service announcement section: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=290799 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=290799)
The problem is that they are very cautious about regulatory compliance, and they have yet to support US and Germany. The two groups that would provide a lot of liquidity. I kind of like it, cause they're usualy the first ones to be supported everywhere else. They need to know how it feels ;D Hence it's not that popular right now... ;) Title: Re: kraken !?

Total volume over the last 24h I believe was 2.5 coins. Two problems right now: no USD trading yet and illiquid market. If you want to help out, put a few small orders up. We're never going to get to a huge volume if everyone waits around for a huge volume to appear before they begin trading. Title: Re: kraken !? Post by: adpinbr on September 21, 2013, 12:45:15 AM I'm happy to see another litecoin exchange, i think that when/if gox implements ltc you will see a lot of people using kraken for leverage opportunities, but till then most people aren't really looking for a reason to move exchanges

Post by: adpinbr on September 21, 2013, 07:15:57 AM Bro if the opportunity presents they will by btc at a premium and come to you exchange. People that think they can trade will take the 10% loss for a margin oppurtunity.
PS I love kraken and Jesse |
