welcome to our channel and in this  video i will teach you about the  

kraken cryptocurrency exchange first  please notice our disclaimer i am not  

a financial advisor and this video is for  informational and educational purposes only

all right now let's dive right into this video  but before we start i want to tell you that all  

the links you will need for the kraken currency  exchange and for this video will be down in the  

description now let's dive right into it so first  of all when you get to the kraken cryptocurrency  

exchange you will get to this screen where you can  create an account sign in which we will get into a  

little bit later but apart from that you can also  check out all of their features prices of your  

favorite cryptocurrencies their new upcoming  nft marketplace the learn section where you  

have crypto guides videos but also podcasts  support if you need help with the cryptocurrency  

exchange futures and institutions the kraken  cryptocurrency exchange is one of the biggest  

cryptocurrency exchanges out there with very  strong security and a lot of markets to trade in  

so the main question is obviously how to actually  create an account on kraken.com well as i said in  

the beginning on the top menu right here all the  way to the right you will find create an account  

if you press that it will bring you to this screen  where you can very easily create your own account  

start by putting in your email pick a username  to your liking and a password up to all of the  

security standards which you can see right here  then your country of residence wherever you  

reside right now agree to the terms and that way  you can easily create an account and after this  

you only need to activate it with an activation  link in your email and you can get started with  

trading on kraken alright so one of the most  important things if you actually want to trade  

on a cryptocurrency exchange is obviously their  security so let's talk a little bit about kraken  

security kraken has industry leading security  they safeguard your funds nfts and maybe most  

importantly your privacy now some of the  ways in which they do that is by having a  

world-class security team but they also have a  safe coin and nfc storage which means that 95  

of all deposits are kept in online air-gapped  and geographically distributed cold storage  

apart from that they also have platform security  where their servers reside in secure cages under  

24 7 surveillance and secured by armed guards  and video monitors in other words very safe they  

have penetration testing so they have their own  team that actually tries to get into the crack  

in cryptocurrency exchange and hack it in order to  prevent that and they have information secured so  

all the sensitive account information is encrypted  at rest at both the system and the data level and  

at the bottom of the page you can also find some  more of the tangible security features such as  

two-factor authentication email confirmations for  withdrawals and apart from that many more things  

now on kraken you can also easily stake your  cryptocurrencies where you can earn up to 23  

yearly on your crypto so you can just get the  staking assets only kraken cryptocurrency exchange  

select the asset that you want to stake and earn  the rewards very easily once you have logged in  

and once you get into that screen so some of the  tokens which you can actually stake are down here  

such as ada atom ethereum 2.0 already and flow now  one of the most important things if you actually  

want to trade on a cryptocurrency is obviously  liquidity without liquidity you wouldn't be able  

to trade so on kraken you have high trade  volume and maximum cryptocurrency liquidity  

so what exactly is liquidity quickly so liquidity  refers to how easily an asset can be bought  

or sold at a stable price at a given market so  for example you want a bitcoin can you easily  

buy it and are you actually able to buy it for the  price you see on the screen so on kraken the main  

reasons what actually drives that liquidity is  that there first of all is high trading volume  

kraken is a huge exchange a lot of people trade  on it but apart from that they also have low fees  

making it very easy and tempting you to actually  trade a lot and apart from that they also have a  

lot of active traders together with more funding  options all together driving the liquidity of the  

kraken currency exchange and quickly i do want to  remind you that all the links you will need again  

will be down in the description so as we already  said there are a lot of active traders on kraken  

and therefore you can also use margin  trading where you can trade with leverage  

allowing you to increase your profits but also  taking on a little bit more risk so let's check  

that out so if you actually want to trade on  kraken what you can do is you have a leverage  

up to five to one which means that you can  trade with five times more the capital you  

have and which you should put up for collateral  apart from that they also have low rollover fees  

and high margin limits allowing you to trade with  a lot of margin and they also have a pro trading  

interface allowing you to manage your positions  easily with your intuitive trading platform and  

advanced order options so here you can quickly  see a list of all of the cryptocurrencies you can  

actually use one margin trading which goes all the  way from algorand to bitcoin down to kozama monero  

and a lot of tokens as you can see now one of  the great things on kraken i think is their  

learn section this actually allows people new to  cryptocurrencies to learn more about crypto but  

also about kraken so some of the things they have  is podcasts the crack and cryptocurrency exchange  

has their own podcast you can also find videos  about news about cryptocurrencies but also about  

all of the features on kraken itself and apart  from that what i think is the most interesting  

one is you have crypto guides so from all of these  cryptos you have a guide as to what they actually  

are how to buy that and how to sell it so  i always think that's an underrated part  

because on kraken you can actually now learn  while trading so as i said quickly in the  

beginning there's also an nft marketplace coming  on kraken soon so if you press nft on the top  

menu you'll get to this screen where you can  join the wait list now obviously nfts are very  

trending in the whole crypto industry so it's  amazing to see kraken actually being innovative  

and jumping onto the nft train and creating their  own marketplace to capitalize on nfts and that  

says a lot about the company kraken 2. now apart  from their own exchange you can also follow them  

on twitter which i would strongly suggest you can  follow them at kraken fx where you can find out a  

lot about kraken for example new podcast episodes  what is going on with the nft marketplace but they  

also post these threats with more information  and education on cryptocurrencies alright  

so with that we have reached the end of this  video in this video we talked about the kraken  

cryptocurrency exchange how to actually create  an account and start trading on it their security  

staking liquidity and margin trading and how  that actually works and what you can do in  

kraken we also talked about the learn section so  how you can learn while actually using kraken and
