Coming soon: bringing Kraken to life
TL;DR
Kraken is completely rebuilding its app from the ground up to make crypto trading intuitive, not overwhelming.
Most trading platforms leave users behind with complex tools and no guidance. Kraken’s redesign puts your financial goals first.
The new app adapts to your objectives, works intelligently in the background, and keeps you in control with maximum visibility and minimum effort.
This is built-in financial intelligence, not an AI assistant bolted onto an old interface; it’s embedded in Kraken’s core architecture.
A new era of Kraken is almost here. We’re completely rebuilding the app from the ground up to be smarter, more responsive, and shaped around what you want to achieve. We want Kraken to feel alive.

FOMC minutes land today, CPI and bank earnings follow
TL;DR
FOMC minutes from the June 17 meeting, which held the federal funds rate at 3.50%–3.75%, release Wednesday, July 8, at 2:00 p.m. ET.
June CPI lands Tuesday, July 14, followed by PPI on July 15 and retail sales on July 16, all ahead of the July 28–29 FOMC meeting.
JPMorgan Chase and Goldman Sachs report Q2 earnings on July 14, the same morning as CPI.
Two Deribit options expiries (July 10 and July 17) round out the volatility backdrop for BTC and ETH on Kraken Pro.
This rapid-fire data reporting doesn’t guarantee a particular market reaction, but the clustering itself is worth structuring around. Active traders should treat July 8 through 17 as concentrated event risk rather than a single catalyst.
