Kraken, a cryptocurrency exchange, said on Thursday that the recent FTX news had not affected it “in any material way,” and that it had no exposure to FTX Chief Executive Officer Sam Bankman-trading Fried’s firm Alameda Research. “We have not listed the FTT token on our spot or futures exchanges, and Kraken is not affected in any material way by the recent FTX news,” Kraken said, adding that it held approximately 9,000 FTT tokens on the FTX exchange. After a deal with cryptocurrency exchange Binance fell through on Wednesday, CEO Bankman-Fried told employees that he was considering all options for his company.
