This is what they are sending to their customers ''We apologize for the uncertainty our downtime has caused. The scheduled downtime was to replace our old trading engine with a brand new trading engine – an improvement that customers have long asked for and that we have long been working hard on''
I am not a Kraken trader, so I am very interested to hear from those who actively use Kraken to trade if there has actually been an improvement noticed. If there is, and Kraken manages to keep its trading engine running smoothly and that consistently regardless of how heavy the actual usage is, then it can be seen as great step forward. If not much turns out to have changed, I think people who are actively trading should start looking for alternative exchanges, because there is nothing more frustrating than an exchange not delivering at peak moments. If you miss out on great money making opportunities due to the incompetence of an exchange, oh boy, that's bad, very bad. Let's hope they have indeed gone forward.
