Well, if you want take defense of kraken, you are free to do it. I can just tell you that I'm used to move money online since 17 years on many activities and kraken it's the 1st exchange in which I have been robbed. Of course I already told in a previous post, I have been lucky to miss MtGox and Bitfinex, and in both cases 2fa is useless anyway.
But after so many years, I developped the nose to smell who cheats and kraken has all the features to be a vampire. There is the behaviour, the attitude. They made their robbery so akward and so in a stupid way through email that's easy to understand they are guilty.
But they have the screen, the distance protection, the international borders so there's nothing to do.
Do you want to become their defensive lawyer? There's no need. Internet and blockchain protect them. So you can also save your silly moral for yourself.
Indeed.
The absence of basic Email verification on Kraken tells us everything that we need to know, and it isn't that our computers have key-logging spyware on them.
Kraken are either crooks from the top down, or they have crooks wedged within their ranks, who selectively steal from their customers.
Right. And not only absence of basic email verification, there's absence of confirmation through SMS too. Both are easy ways to be protected, while 2fa means lot of troubles if you lose, break or accidentally format your smartphone.
