Summary

Kraken has begun offering U.S. securities trading to U.S.-resident clients through a partnership with Alpaca, expanding its platform beyond cryptocurrencies into more than 11,000 stocks and ETFs. The arrangement uses Alpaca’s brokerage API and self-clearing infrastructure to provide commission-free equities trading, including fractional and notional orders, while Kraken continues to offer over 300 digital assets and six fiat currencies. The move follows Kraken’s acquisition of futures platform NinjaTrader and reflects its stated strategy of developing a multi-asset trading platform that may eventually add products such as options internationally. Alpaca, a U.S.-based broker-dealer and infrastructure provider, and Kraken emphasize that investing in securities, options, and cryptocurrencies carries risks, including potential losses, volatility, and limitations associated with fractional shares.
