'''Kraken''' - is a cryptocurrency exchange, operating in Canada, the European Union, Japan and the United States. It was founded in 2011 in San Francisco by Jesse Powell. It has been constantly working since September 2013. According to the founders, it is "the world's largest bitcoin exchange in terms of the volume of transactions in euro and its liquidity." Also, trades are held in Canadian dollars, US dollars, British pounds and Japanese yen.

==History of the Creation==
 
−
 
 
−
A month before the foundation of Kraken's crypto-eschange, Jesse Powell wanted to offer assistance to Mt. Gox, the largest crypto-exchange at that time, which suffered from a hacker attack. Seeing the technical problems of MtGox, Powell decided to found his [[cryptocurrency]] [[exchange]] to continue to introduce bitcoins to the masses. According to Jesse Powell himself, after the situation with MGox, he realized that "the exchange is really the most important element of the ecosystem."
 
−
 
 
−
Kraken was launched in September 2013 after two years of development and beta testing. At first, only bitcoin, lightcoin and euro were traded there. Later, other fiat and crypto-currencies, including [[Ethereum]], [[Ethereum Classic]], [[DASH]], [[Monero]], [[Ripple]], [[Zcash]] and [[Bitcoin Cash]] were added.
 
−
 
 
−
Kraken became the first cryptocurrency exchange, the information about the trades on which was displayed by the Bloomberg terminal, and which was also the first to pass the Proof-of-Reserves cryptographic audit.
 
−
 
 
−
In 2016, Kraken acquired American companies Coinsetter and Glidera, as well as Canadian Cavirtex. In 2017, this cryptocurrency exchange bought the CryptoWatch trading platform.
 
−
 
 
−
In 2017, the Kraken exchange suffered from DDoS-attacks and performance problems. On January 10, 2018, Kraken suspended trading for more than 48 hours to install the update for which only two hours were allocated. Since its opening in 2011, it has been the longest service interruption.
 
−
 
 
−
==Dealing with the Mt. Gox debts==
 
−
 
 
−
In November 2014, Nobuaki Kobayashi, appointed as a trustee of the bankrupt MtGox crypto-exchange by the court, announced that Kraken was chosen as a platform to assist the investigation of lost bitcoins and the process of reimbursement of debts to creditors. The reason for this choice was the Kraken’s powerful security system, which had not been jeopardized by that time.
 
−
 
 
−
Experts noted that the situation with serving former clients of MtGox can play into the hands of Kraken, as they will have to create accounts on the crypto-exchange to get their money back.
 
−
 
 
−
At the beginning of March 2018, Nobuaki Kobayashi said that he had sold bitcoins and [[Bitcoin Cash]] in the ratio of $ 406.6 million for half a year. The bankrupt exchange has still had bitcoins for about $ 1.8 billion at the current rate.
