PANews July 19日消息, according to Kraken’s official announcement, Kraken Pro has launched European cash-settled options contracts on Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) for eligible professional and institutional customers. The new contracts use a linear structure and are settled in USD. The first batch supports weekly, monthly, quarterly, and half-year maturities, traded via a request-for-quote (RFQ) mechanism. The platform has enabled portfolio margin by default; spot, futures, and options share a single wallet, and it supports more than 30 currencies as collateral. Kraken said it plans to roll out a public order book in the future, expand its asset coverage, and expects to open to the European market in the second half of 2026.
