KRAKEN System Update: EOS Buying opportunity!?
Kraken is updating his system and has been down for 12h (still down) At their site (kraken.com) they inform:
*** MAINTENANCE ANNOUNCEMENT ***
Kraken is presently offline for maintenance.
While maintenance is underway, the website and API will not be available, and orders will not be accepted or canceled.
The Kraken Team
Here is the current progress they inform: https://status.kraken.com/incidents/nswthr1lyx72
Since i used KRAKEN to buy my EOS and as you know is one of my main HODL'ing positions i was a bit worried so i checked it with EOS today at market, yesterday the graph was very exciting and today it continues giving good data .
Look what a beautiful graphic in BINANCE on the way to its historical peak.
However in KRAKEN exchange while a full update thats what is happening:
I tell you as fisherman, because when KRAKEN opens the ban it will be a great opportunity to get on the EOS train !! I already have the cane ready :)
Obviously you need a valid account in Kraken.
I think that many traders are not going to be in time to cancel their sales orders and it's going to be like fishing in a puddle!
good luck!

Kraken is basically BROKEN FOR ALL NEW USERS FOR MANY MONTHS:

Kraken is quite disappointing, it's been weeks now and I haven't been able to authenticate, and when I try to it says the feature is disabled...
I just read this, so they are doomed, I won't work with them..
not any time soon
so unprofessional, just really disappointing, coinbase, kraken, both so fucked up..
time to grow weed
I'm good at that
at this point, I give up on "end points", and I just want to see people accept crypto and understand why it's important for P2P economy to be "willed into existance" and manifested
I think that is our biggest hurdle and challange and it's worth fight for!
lol...grow weed
MY MAN, u may miss the point..
This might be an opportunity for someone who knows what they are doing but it is bad for the newbies:

I think Kraken mentioned that they would cancel all open orders.
They should, however they say :
and orders will not be able to be placed or canceled
cancel life
Good fishing dude, hope the upgrade will not last more than the EOS bullish cycle :-(
ty, yeah... or it take me sleeping lol
Update from KRAKEN staff:
We are still working to track down an elusive bug which is holding up launch. This bug did not appear in our many weeks of testing and only emerged in the production environment. Unfortunately, it is not consistently reproducible and we cannot launch until this issue is resolved. To reiterate our earlier statement: stale (and possibly all) orders will be canceled, and liquidations will be paused before trading is resumed. We will be offering a substantial amount of free trading following resolution. All funds remain secure.

I'm inclined to agree with you assuming their whole system hasn't crashed or employees pilfered coins and they don't know what to do.
