Kraken Derivatives US is now live in Vermont, West Virginia, North Dakota, Mississippi, and Washington D.C., with broader rollout underway.

“This gives traders broad market access and increased capital efficiency within a regulated and high-performance environment,” said Shannon Kurtas, Kraken’s Head of Exchange.

Kraken plans to expand beyond crypto into commodities, FX, equities, and fixed income futures, with instant collateral transfers across markets. The launch follows Kraken’s commission-free stock trading rollout and signals a broader push into multi-asset infrastructure.
