Kraken scheduled maintenance for its Hedera funding gateway on October 28, 2026, from 17:00 to 17:40 UTC. Deposits and withdrawals for the affected assets will be unavailable during that window; Kraken says transfers made during maintenance will be processed shortly after it ends.
The announced maintenance window is October 28, 2026, from 17:00 to 17:40 UTC.
Kraken’s status page lists the event as scheduled maintenance for its Hedera funding gateway. The notice was posted on October 23, 2026.
If you are planning a transfer, check Kraken’s status page for any updates issued while the work is underway.
Deposits and withdrawals for the listed assets on the Hedera network will be unavailable during maintenance.
The notice names BONZO, DOVU, GIB, PACK, HBAR, SAUCE, and USDC, each identified with the Hedera network.
The announcement is about funding transfers for these assets on Hedera. It does not say that Kraken trading or its API will be suspended.
Kraken says transfers made during the maintenance window will be processed shortly after the work is complete.
For example, a transfer of an affected token over Hedera may not be processed immediately if it is made during the announced window. Kraken says processing will follow after maintenance ends.
The notice does not give an exact crediting time for each transfer. Do not assume funds will be credited immediately at 17:40 UTC; check Kraken’s status updates and your account.

Kraken has scheduled maintenance for its Spot Exchange website and API on Thursday, October 29, 2026, starting at 08:01 UTC. The exchange estimates about 15 minutes of downtime, followed by a staged return to normal market operation.
The maintenance is scheduled to begin at 08:01 UTC on October 29, 2026, and is expected to take about 15 minutes.
Kraken says it will upgrade systems supporting the Spot Exchange website and API. The duration is an estimate, and the precise service-restoration time may shift slightly.
If you use the API for automated trading, check the schedule against your system’s time zone and review Kraken’s status page as the maintenance window approaches.
The Kraken Spot Exchange website and API will be unavailable, and Kraken advises users not to place or cancel orders during the window.
Kraken warns that the Spot Exchange website and API will be unavailable during the work. Deposits and withdrawals initiated during the maintenance may be delayed. The notice says sign-in and other non-trading features will remain operational.
If a strategy or third-party integration submits orders through the API, consider reviewing its schedule and handling for temporary unavailability in advance. This is a practical precaution, not a separate instruction from Kraken.
After maintenance, Kraken plans to move markets through cancel-only mode, then post-only mode, before restoring full functionality.
The return to trading will be staged: markets will first enter cancel-only mode, then post-only mode, and finally return to full functionality. The end of the estimated maintenance window therefore may not mean that every order type is immediately available.
Check Kraken’s live status and the current market mode before resuming automated trading or submitting API orders.
It is scheduled for Thursday, October 29, 2026, at 08:01 UTC. Kraken estimates about 15 minutes, but the actual restoration time may vary slightly.
Kraken advises against placing or canceling orders during the maintenance because the Spot Exchange website and API will be unavailable.
Yes. Kraken says deposits and withdrawals initiated during the maintenance window may be delayed.
Check Kraken's status updates. After maintenance, markets are expected to pass through cancel-only and post-only modes before returning to full functionality.
Kraken Prime maintenance is scheduled for October 29, 2026, from 23:00 to 23:10 UTC. During that window, the Kraken Prime web interface and REST, WebSocket, and FIX APIs may be temporarily unavailable.
The maintenance window is scheduled for October 29, 2026, from 23:00 to 23:10 UTC.
Kraken describes the work as a routine platform upgrade. The announcement was posted on October 27, 2026. At the time of publication, the scheduled window is still in the future.
The listed window is ten minutes long. It is the announced schedule, not a guarantee that access will be restored at precisely 23:10 UTC.
Kraken says the Kraken Prime web interface and REST, WebSocket, and FIX APIs may be temporarily unavailable.
If an integration relies on one of these interfaces, account for the possibility of temporary loss of access during the announced window. The notice does not say that the maintenance affects the regular Kraken Exchange, deposits, withdrawals, or other Kraken products.
Review processes that depend on Kraken Prime and monitor Kraken's official status updates.
These are precautions for planning integrations, not a claim that an outage is guaranteed or that products not listed by Kraken will be affected.
Kraken lists October 29, 2026, from 23:00 to 23:10 UTC.
Kraken lists the REST, WebSocket, and FIX APIs, along with the Kraken Prime web interface.
That is not confirmed. Kraken says the services may be temporarily unavailable but does not specify whether any disruption would be continuous or how long it might last.
Kraken plans to replace 176 native trading pairs with synthetic pairs. The affected pairs are scheduled to become cancel-only at 14:00 UTC on November 6, 2026; open orders will not transfer, and replacement pairs are scheduled for November 9 by end of day. Bot and API users should review the affected markets and their order-handling logic.
Kraken plans to replace 176 native trading pairs with synthetic pairs; the assets themselves will remain on the exchange.
According to Kraken’s notice, the change concerns the type of trading pairs, not the removal of the assets from Kraken. The exchange has published a list of affected pairs, which users should check before taking action.
The notice describes a change to trading markets. It does not announce changes to API endpoints or message formats, so this should not be presented as a confirmed API migration.
The affected pairs are scheduled to become cancel-only at 14:00 UTC on November 6, 2026; open orders will not carry over to replacement pairs.
Kraken’s notice gives the following timeline:
If you have an open order on an affected pair, Kraken advises canceling it before 14:00 UTC on November 6. Once a replacement pair is listed, any new order must be placed separately. Kraken also says balances are unaffected and margin pairs are not included.
Check whether your strategy uses an affected market and plan for the old pair to stop accepting new orders and for open orders to be canceled.
The market replacement may matter to automated trading even though Kraken has not announced a separate API change. Before the transition:
These are operational precautions for bot users, not claims that Kraken announced specific API changes. The notice does not say that settings, signals, or orders will be migrated automatically.
Kraken Support has published the full list; check it before changing your trading setup.
The list includes pairs with different quote assets, such as ADA/AUD, BTC/DAI, and ETH/JPY. These are examples only, not the complete list. Check the specific market and any updates on Kraken’s official support page; the exchange status page also carries the announcement.
There is a difference in how the dates appear: the status page displays a November 10 window, while the notice text describes the transition stages from November 6 to 9. For order-related actions, check the current support article and verify the schedule again before the event.
No. Kraken says balances are unaffected; the change concerns trading pairs.
No. Kraken says open orders will not transfer; any remaining orders will be canceled.
Kraken says no action is needed if you have no open orders on an affected pair. Bot users may still want to review which markets their software uses.
The notice describes replacement trading pairs, but does not announce changes to API endpoints or message formats.
