Kraken has acquired NinjaTrader in a $1.5 billion deal, marking a strategic leap toward uniting traditional finance with the crypto ecosystem. The move not only diversifies Kraken’s offerings but also sets the stage for its anticipated public listing in 2026. The timing aligns with renewed optimism in the crypto sector, driven by expectations of more favorable regulatory conditions under U.S. President Trump.
The Spanish financial regulator CNMV has warned against the broker scheme NinjaTrader. NinjaTrader Group and its legal entities operate this broker and the Infinity Futures brand. NinjaTrader Group holds CFTC registrations as an Introducing Broker and futures commission merchant. However, the scheme does not have regulatory permission to operate in EEA jurisdictions. You should, therefore, be cautious as an EEA resident.
