Kraken Introduces FX Perpetual Futures, Enables Round-the-Clock Trading of Major Currency Pairs

Cryptocurrency exchange Kraken has rolled out a new product line—FX Perpetual Futures—that allows users to trade top global currency pairs 24/7. These innovative derivatives mimic traditional foreign exchange (forex) contracts but without expiration dates, giving traders continuous exposure to currency price movements.

With this launch, Kraken merges the high-liquidity world of forex with the always-on nature of crypto markets. The offering includes major pairs such as EUR/USD, GBP/USD, and USD/JPY, among others. By supporting perpetual access to these pairs, Kraken opens the door for global traders to engage in forex strategies beyond the constraints of traditional market hours.

This move not only expands Kraken's suite of trading products but also signals a deeper push into bridging the gap between conventional finance and decentralized trading infrastructure.
