- Kraken is set to list 19 new tokens, including BNB, DYDX, DOGS, and GOAT.
- The exchange will integrate new blockchains like BNB Smart Chain, dYdX, and Arweave to support these tokens.
- Kraken’s listing strategy mirrors the trend of U.S.-based exchanges like Coinbase and Robinhood adding tokens amid regulatory easing.
Kraken, the second-largest U.S.-based crypto exchange, revealed plans to potentially list 19 tokens, including notable assets such as BNB, DYDX, and meme coins like DOGS and GOAT.
The exchange outlined these tokens on its official website, marking them as part of its upcoming tradable asset roadmap. Among the changes, Kraken will integrate several new blockchains to support these tokens.
Full List of Tokens and Key Integrations
Notably, this includes the BNB Smart Chain for the BNB token, the dYdX decentralized exchange platform for the DYDX token, and the Arweave blockchain for the AR token.
Meanwhile, Kraken noted that the listing of new tokens of previously integrated blockchain will see meme coins like FWOG, TRUMP, NEIRO, DOGS, GOAT, PNUT, MOODENG, COW, and eight others trading on the exchange.
However, Kraken clarified that inclusion on the roadmap does not guarantee a listing. The exchange emphasized that trading and funding for these tokens will only be supported after a formal announcement from Kraken Pro X. Users were also warned against depositing these tokens prematurely, as this could result in lost funds.
U.S. Exchanges Shift Toward Broader Token Listings
Notably, Kraken is listing these tokens amid the ongoing bull market, where interest in cryptocurrencies is reaching unprecedented heights. This trend is also reflected by other U.S.-based exchanges like Coinbase and Robinhood.
Last week, Coinbase added popular meme coins PEPE and FLOKI, even though these tokens have been around in the crypto market for years. Similarly, Robinhood enabled the trading of prominent tokens like XRP, Cardano (ADA), and Solana (SOL) for the first time last week.
Market pundits have linked this shift in U.S. exchanges’ approach to token listings to the incoming Donald Trump administration’s pro-crypto stance. Some believe that regulations around coin listings may become more relaxed under this administration, easing restrictions that have historically hindered the listing process.
