Company representatives said that this product is the first crypto wallet of a large international exchange with open source code. Thus, developers will be able to make their own changes if they wish, contributing to its further development, Kraken noted.
In the first couple of days, the wallet will support eight different networks. Among them are the following blockchains:
- bitcoin; Ethereum; Arbitrum; Base; Solana; Dogecoin; Optimism; Polygon.
In the future, the company plans to increase the number of supported networks.
It is worth noting that Kraken Wallet is available for iOS users.
Kraken stated that the company will collect a minimum the amount of data associated with the use of the wallet. All information is transmitted through the exchange’s own infrastructure, which makes it impossible to interfere from the outside in the operation of the product, the company emphasized.
