Cybercurrency exchange Kraken said in a blog post on Friday that it has launched perpetual foreign exchange futures to expand its business into traditional markets by trading major foreign exchange pairs around the clock. The first contracts EUR/USD and GBP/USD are now available on Kraken Pro, and more contracts will be available in the future. Unlike standard foreign exchange products, foreign exchange perpetual contracts have no expiration date and operate around the clock, similar to cryptocurrency futures. Through foreign exchange dealers, Kraken will redouble its efforts to serve institutional and professional traders seeking deeper access to statutory markets through crypto-native platforms, the company said.
