Kraken exchange platform announced that it has added support for Basic Attention Token (BAT) and Waves (WAVES.)
Users of the platform will be able to deposit, withdraw and exchange both assets starting August 22nd. The Kraken exchange platform will launch trading pairs between BAT and WAVES and Bitcoin (BTC) and Ether (ETH,) as well as with fiat currencies such as the euro and the US dollar.
“The first transactions will take a little longer, because the sales orders cannot be placed until the loans are credited,”
is mentioned on the Kraken website.
