The transaction values Kraken at about $13.3 billion, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/business\/deutsche-boerse-takes-200-million-stake-crypto-exchange-kraken-bloomberg-news-2026-04-14\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">reporting<\/a> by Bloomberg.<\/p>\n<p>The move builds on an existing relationship between the two firms and signals a broader push to integrate traditional financial infrastructure with <a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/crypto-market-cap-hits-2-6-trillion-as-bitcoin-eyes-75k-amid-hormuz-standoff\/\">crypto<\/a> markets. The partnership is expected to focus on regulated offerings, including tokenized assets and derivatives, while improving <span>liquidity<\/span> for institutional clients.<\/p>\n<p>As part of the collaboration, Kraken will integrate with 360T, Deutsche B\u00f6rse\u2019s foreign exchange trading platform. The connection is designed to provide Kraken users with access to bank-grade foreign exchange <span>liquidity<\/span>, potentially streamlining the conversion between fiat currencies and digital assets.<\/p>\n<p>The companies also plan to expand the use of Kraken Embed, a service that allows institutions to offer <span>crypto<\/span> trading and custody under their own brands. The initiative targets banks, fintech firms, and asset managers seeking to enter the digital asset space without building infrastructure from scratch.<\/p>\n<p>Further developments are expected, subject to regulatory approval. These include enabling trading of derivatives listed on Eurex, Deutsche B\u00f6rse\u2019s derivatives exchange, through <a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/kraken-targeted-by-extortion-group-threatening-to-leak-internal-support-videos\/\">Kraken<\/a>\u2019s platform.<\/p>\n<p>The investment underscores a growing convergence between established financial institutions and the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bitcoin.com\/get-started\/a-quick-introduction-to-crypto\/\" class=\"lar_link lar_link_outgoing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">crypto<\/a> sector. For Kraken, the backing from Deutsche B\u00f6rse provides capital and strategic alignment with one of Europe\u2019s most influential financial market operators. For Deutsche B\u00f6rse, the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bitcoin.com\/get-started\/what-is-staking\/\" class=\"lar_link lar_link_outgoing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">stake<\/a> offers a direct foothold in a global <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bitcoin.com\/get-started\/a-quick-introduction-to-crypto\/\" class=\"lar_link lar_link_outgoing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">crypto<\/a> platform at a time when competition for digital asset infrastructure is intensifying.<\/p>\n<p>The deal also reflects a broader trend of legacy financial firms moving beyond exploratory partnerships toward equity investments in <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bitcoin.com\/get-started\/a-quick-introduction-to-crypto\/\" class=\"lar_link lar_link_outgoing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">crypto<\/a> companies. By combining trading, custody, and tokenization capabilities, both firms are positioning themselves to capture a larger share of institutional flows into digital assets.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/deutsche-borse-invests-200-million-in-crypto-exchange-kraken\/\">Source link <\/a><br \/>\n<br \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(Originally posted on : Bitcoin News ) Kraken Valued at $13 Billion After Deutsche B\u00f6rse Stake Deutsche B\u00f6rse has taken a minority stake in crypto exchange Kraken, marking one of the clearest signs yet of Europe\u2019s largest market operator deepening its exposure to digital assets.
