Kraken Adds Bitcoin and Ether Options to EEA Clients
Kraken has expanded its derivatives offerings to eligible European Economic Area (EEA) clients with existing Kraken Pro derivatives accounts. The USD cash-settled contracts share collateral with futures and use portfolio margin by default. The announcement confirms the availability of options in EEA countries where Kraken offers derivatives, with an options appropriateness assessment required before trading. Expiries range from weekly and monthly to quarterly and semiannual, and the contracts are cash-settled in U.S. dollars.
