Re: [ANN] KRAKEN.COM - Exchange Now Open with USD, EUR, BTC, LTC, XRP, NMC

The problem is not Kraken but the fact there is not much people trading BTC in EUR.
Actually, if we only consider BTC/EUR, Kraken will soon be the first exchange!

Last 24h
Mt.Gox   BTC/EUR   675.000000 EUR   318.1867 BTC
Kraken   BTC/EUR   607.990000 EUR   316.6295 BTC
BTC-e   BTC/EUR   613.498000 EUR   170.6412 BTC

Best prices too!

Just expanding on this a bit.... (bitcoinaverage.com):

Were not talking about this bitonic right: https://bitonic.nl/ ?

Yeah, I'm not entirely sure how they managed to get on BitcoinAverage. As far as I know, they don't have an API that exposes trade-volume. And they're not an actual exchange either, they primarily just follow Bitstamp prices with some of their profit margin added on top.
