Hello Kraken,

May I ask if and when it may be possible for you guys to offer SEPA instant withdrawals? This would make SEPA withdrawals within the Eurozone nearly instant. Thank you.

Hi Kraken, I have a question about the withdrawal information my bank receives when I initiate a SEPA withdrawal to them from Kraken. My bank has told me multiple times that they don't see where the money comes from.

All the banks I used to withdraw EUR from Kraken told me the same thing and some closed my account because of this. Is there a way that you guys could address this and like mention in the withdrawal details that the money comes from my account and add my name in there?

If my name could appear there, then that would be perfect. Please let me know, since this is a very important issue for me and many others I believe.

Like let's take this example:

Initiator's bank reference: 5xxxxxx6

Orderer's reference: NOTPROVIDED.

***QUESTIONS***

1. Could I somehow add my name to the "Initiator's bank reference" field?
2. Also for the "Orderer's reference" field, can I add a message like "hey, it's me mark".

Please let me know since this may help prevent closing my bank account.

Yes, I withdrew EUR. Crypto withdrawals are also available.

Withdrawals are back online.

You cannot buy less then 30 XRP, and yes, it sucks. Bitstamp has a minimum order of 5 EUR. So if you have an account there, you can buy from there.

I placed some orders and they were instant. I cannot believe it! However, now the system hung or something. It froze as before. Let's see what happens next. If Kraken works as fast as I experienced, wow... it will be a game changer.

I can't understand why they didn't clone the server, let the exchange run as it is and then apply the fix once they had it. I won't lie, I feel bad as I wait cause I have loads of money in there. The good side is that there is still communication which is good, but I would like an update as soon as possible. 2 days is unacceptable omg.. Why do we have unprofessional noobs running businesses like this? This shows so much disrespect towards customers. I can't even fathom doing this to the people that make you millions of dollars a day. I just can't.

From 2 hours to a whole day.. when is this upgrade going to be finished? I missed a lot of trading opportunities today and I don't appreciate that at all. But who cares...........

Hi Septimus, the exchange simply freezes from time to time, - happened twice today, morning and now in the evening - and you simply can't do anything on it like place orders or cancel orders. This is SERIOUSLY dangerous for traders. Why does this happen?

EDIT: The freeze lasts anywhere from 10 to 20+ minutes.

Site is unusable, never seen it in such a bad state before... not even before the so called fixes. Christ..........

Right now Kraken froze. Prices have frozen for all coins and you cannot place an order (it fails). this is the 2nd time I get this and it's really bad imho. Why does this happen?

Give it at least 30 mins. It will go back to your account afterwards.

Ok there are delays for crediting crypto deposits.

However, my sepa and xrp withdrawals are still in "Initializing" mode.

I've deposited some XRP (Ripple) to my account and it's not credited yet. It says "Success" when I go into the deposit section, but it's not yet credited to my account.

I also made a sepa withdrawal which says "Initializing" and doesn't move forward from there. it just stays like that.

Are there any withdrawal/depositing issues with kraken right now? Anyone else has had this happen to them today?

Hi Kraken,

I'm Tier 3 verified in Spain. Can I withdraw Euro to a bank account that's in another EU country?

Hi everyone, is anyone else having problems with SEPA withdrawals Pending for hours or am I the only one?

******FIXED******** Kraken rules!!!!

May I request someone from Kraken support to reply to my question, please? It's very important to me. 

Hi everyone, I received some tainted coins from Kraken last week (29% taint) and I was wondering what Kraken's policy against tainted coins is. Is this allowed or does it pose a problem to the account holder? If yes, what are the consequences?

I'm really interested in this, since I'm buying Bitcoins locally for a small 3% fee then sell them on Kraken. Would I get in trouble if I exchange tainted BTC there?

Hi @Gosha, i have some bitcoin in my wallet, but when I used the blockchain taint analysis, they were 24% tainted.
I have coins in another wallet that are up to 100% tainted. I read some negative things about tainted coins and I don't like it. Is it safe to exchange these on Wirex?
