According to CoinMeta, Kraken has announced the launch of U.S. stock trading in the European Economic Area (EEA), allowing users to access over 7,000 U.S.-listed stocks and more than 700 tokenized stocks (xstocks). This expansion builds upon the previous stock trading services launched in Germany, France, and the Netherlands (Kraken). The updated support page (Kraken) indicates that customers in countries such as Spain, Italy, Ireland, Sweden, Austria, Portugal, and Norway can also enjoy this service. Eligible customers can trade through Kraken Pro and the standard Kraken applications, and stock trading is commission-free for eligible customers, although they may still need to pay for spreads, foreign exchange fees, etc. Kraken plans to expand its traditional and tokenized stock products to more markets in the coming months.
