In most US states, including California and New York, we offer no services.

is this still the case? where does kraken list the states that it services?

can anyone comment on the reliability of domestic (US) bank wires out of kraken? i'm looking for a new exchange to do light trading and occasional cashouts. but i came across this and became concerned: https://np.reddit.com/r/ethtrader/comments/6fu1vs/fyi_your_funds_are_at_risk_if_you_are_in_the_us/

If I am correct, Kraken stopped to use the USD for deposits and withdraws. From the FAQ it says

Quote

What currencies can I deposit and withdraw? You can deposit and withdraw euros, US dollars, Canadian dollars, Japanese yen, bitcoins and other digital currencies.

But when I check my account I don't see the USD option for deposits/withdraws, that's why I suppose the USD has been removed. Or my location is the reason I don't see it.

LeGaulois,

At this time Kraken does not offer service to residents of New York and Washington.

If you do reside in a US state other than NY or WA, then please see if you have been verified to Tier 3.

The requirements to enable United States (US) domestic wire transfer deposits and withdrawals are the following:
- Your Kraken account must be registered in a supported US state (i.e. not WA or NY)
- Verification status of your Kraken account must be Tier 3 or Tier 4.
- You need to have submitted a US government-issued ID document such as passport, drivers license, etc; a US-issued SSN; an ID confirmation photo; proof of residence document in the US; and access to a US domestic bank account

Now, international USD transfers are not currently supported as we currently don't have a banking partner that can facilitate international USD wire transfers at this time. We do have a team devoted to cultivating new bank partnerships and expect to start seeing the fruits of this effort soon with new bank funding options coming online soon. If you reside outside of the US, if you have a bank account in the SEPA zone, you can fund your account with a EUR SEPA transfer. Or, if you do not have a bank account in the SEPA zone you can send EUR by using the "Fidor Bank AG (Wire Transfer)" option.
