Kraken unveils its pro trading platform 

Crypto exchange Kraken joins the cohort of platforms offering its users a pro version. The announcement comes just weeks after laying off 30% of its workers.

Kraken Pro has launched a set of sophisticated trading tools and a new user interface that streamlines access to spot trading, margin trading, staking, and portfolio management. The pro version is designed for experienced traders.

According to the company, Kraken Pro leverages the newest technology to decrease latency, handle peak demand, and support more than 220 currencies and tokens. Moreover, it has an updated UI and real-time web trading.

Kraken, who recently laid off 30% of its employees to adapt to crypto winter, hopes these modifications will accelerate and simplify the process of using the exchange.

However, the company claims to have no exposure to Alameda Research in the recent revelation amidst the ongoing crisis, which has specifically posed a big blow to FTX and Alameda.
