Kraken is rebuilding its app around agentic trading as crypto exchanges evolve beyond crypto

Kraken, a major cryptocurrency exchange, is rebuilding its app around agentic trading, where AI agents (autonomous systems that make decisions based on human guidance) can monitor markets, identify investment opportunities, and execute trades in real time with user approval. Unlike fully automated systems with fixed rules, these agentic platforms learn from new information and adjust to multiple variables within parameters set by users. The shift reflects a broader move toward AI-native financial products that aim to give everyday investors the same market responsiveness and decision-making support that professional traders traditionally had.
