I honestly thought the upgrade had already happened since in the last few weeks the platform was running much smoother than before. I can hardly wait to see how smoothly it wil run after the upgrade.
The frequent updates are also appreciated, i don't understand why people complain about them. They're also getting more entertaining. I've been using Kraken since 2013 and they are indeed the most trustworthy exchange there is. Only people who started using Kraken recently seem to be worried. They don't really know the exchange or their good reputation. I'm not worried at all.
Update
I fell asleep at my desk. In a dream, the ghost of a butterfly from the future whispered to me "the dollar hit 0 bitcoin". I wake up, people around me dabbing the blood from their eyes. Progress has been made but not enough. I crack my whip -- "we aren't getting to zero like this!". The flogging will continue until morale improves. Expect another update after I make my rounds. I'm sorry I've let you down.

I wonder who is writing these updates? Is it Jesse or one of the devs working on the upgrade?
Edit: nearing completion now. This update just came in.
Update
We are close but rather than launch immediately ahead of the team passing out, we will push off a bit to get some rest and be able to better monitor systems and react to problems following launch. Unfortunately, this means several more hours of delay. We do not have a definite time but it will not be before 9:00AM UTC (1:00AM PT).
