What is Akash Network?

Akash Network is a decentralized and open-source cloud computing marketplace that aims to accelerate app deployment in high-growth industries like blockchain and machine learning. The AKT token provides security via staking and acts as a unit of account for pricing all of its marketplace’s supported currencies.

Will Kraken list more assets?

Yes! But our policy is to never reveal any details until shortly before launch – not even which assets we are considering. All of Kraken’s listed tokens are available on our website, and all future tokens will be announced on Kraken’s blog and social media profiles. Our client engagement specialists cannot answer any questions about which assets we may be listing in the future. 

Trade and invest with caution

Limit orders are recommended when trading starts since the markets may be illiquid initially. Be extremely careful with market orders and orders that trigger market orders (e.g. stop loss).

Listing an asset or token for trade is not a recommendation to buy, sell, or participate in the associated network. Do your own research and invest at your own risk.
