Kraken has announced an agreement to acquire Ninjatrader, the U.S. retail futures trading platform, for $1.5 billion, subject to certain purchase price adjustments. This acquisition accelerates its multi-asset-class ambitions, which include plans for equities trading and payments. Founded in 2003, Ninjatrader provides advanced futures trading tools to nearly two million traders and operates as a CFTC-registered Futures Commission Merchant (FCM). The deal marks a significant step in integrating traditional finance with crypto markets, allowing Kraken to offer crypto futures and derivatives in the U.S. and facilitating seamless multi-asset trading for clients. Additionally, Kraken’s U.K. MiFID, EU MiFID, and Australian securities licenses will unlock regulatory licensing and growth, accelerating Ninjatrader’s expansion into the U.K., Europe, and Australia.
