Payward files for single-stock perpetual futures for Kraken in the US

  • The product will start with 10 stocks and 24/5 trading
  • The filing is under CFTC review; leverage and timing were not disclosed
  • Kraken acquired Bitnomial for $550 million in May 2026
  • Outside the US, Kraken already offers tokenized stock perps in 110+ countries
Why it matters: The launch would create a new US product class — single-stock perpetual futures — intensifying competition with Crypto.com and Coinbase.
