Kraken launches regulated spot crypto margin trading in US

Kraken has launched a spot cryptocurrency margin trading service for U.S. retail users that is regulated by the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission. The Block reported that it has been difficult for U.S. retail users to access such products within a regulated environment. Kraken said users can trade with up to 10 times leverage using their crypto holdings as collateral without directly selling assets. The launch followed Payward’s completion of its acquisition of Bitnomial.
