Extended margin pairs are available for NEAR and SEI!

Kraken now supports new margin pairs for: NEAR Protocol (NEAR) and 6 networks (SEI)!

Margin trading is now available for NEAR and SEI using the pairs below.

Here’s what you need to know about assets:

NEAR Protocol (NEAR) A cloud-based computing platform for Web3 and decentralized applications (dApps). The protocol’s community-run cloud infrastructure and new sharding architecture enable developers to create interoperable and scalable applications. NEAR is the platform’s native token used to pay network transaction fees and earn rewards for securing the protocol through staking.

SEI Network (SEI) It is a layer 1 blockchain developed by Cosmos that aims to provide next-generation DeFi infrastructure. Sei Network leverages a centralized order book (CLOB) to facilitate dApp integration and access to liquidity within the Cosmos ecosystem. SEI validators may choose to accept other Comos ecosystem-endorsed tokens for gas payments, depending on network governance. SEI tokens allow users to pay gas fees and also serve as the protocol’s governance token.
