This was an Action Item before I became a Volunpeer and so I wondered why Kraken wasn’t on our recent list of exchanges to target. It is such a good site, so maybe it is worth repeating the Action? I’ve just written to them. Thus far it is the exchange that has impressed me the most, though unfortunately most US residents can only trade between cryptocurrencies for now (or not even that, in some states). But even if many of us can’t use them much yet, they are very good and very visible, especially in Europe, so having them add Peercoin would get our coin visibility. They have other altcoins, so it is bad not to have Peercoin among them.

Also, how about Camp BX? I read some complaints about them but maybe it was due to growing pains and not having sufficient staff/resources to deal with their increasing number of customers. They seem to be one of the most active “US-based” exchanges, so again it would help with visibility to have Peercoins added.

I’ve been on contact with Kraken personally. At this time, they’re not interested in adding any additional cryptos. As far as CampBX, l’ll setup an action item for them tonight. Thanks for the suggestion.
