Crypto exchange Kraken has rolled out its self-custody wallet for digital assets, following the likes of Binance, OKX, Coinbase, Bitget, and Bybit.

繼 Binance、OKX、Coinbase、Bitget 和 Bybit 等公司之後，加密貨幣交易所 Kraken 推出了數位資產自助託管錢包。

"Whether you’re a Kraken client or not, you can use multichain Kraken Wallet as your bridge to the decentralized financial system," exchange staff wrote. Currently, Kraken Wallet supports assets on eight blockchains, including Bitcoin (BTC), Ether (ETH), Solana (SOL), Optimism, Base, Arbitrum, Polygon and Dogecoin (DOGE). 

「無論您是否是 Kraken 客戶，您都可以使用多鏈 Kraken 錢包作為通往去中心化金融系統的橋樑，」交易所工作人員寫道。目前，Kraken 錢包支援八個區塊鏈上的資產，包括比特幣（BTC）、以太幣（ETH）、Solana（SOL）、Optimism、Base、Arbitrum、Polygon 和狗狗幣（DOGE）。

Wallet developers claim that the app "collects the absolute minimum amount of data required to function as a wallet," and "not even internal app performance analytics are collected." The company also stated:

錢包開發人員聲稱，該應用程式“收集了錢包功能所需的絕對最小量的數據”，並且“甚至沒有收集內部應用程式效能分析”。該公司還表示：

"User activity is proxied through Kraken’s own infrastructure, shielding your IP address and preventing your identity and location information from potential external exposure."

“用戶活動透過 Kraken 自己的基礎設施進行代理，保護您的 IP 位址並防止您的身分和位置資訊受到潛在的外部暴露。”

For security, the wallet features mobile biometrics and user password protection,while its code has been audited by Trail of Bits. The app's code is also open-source and available on GitHub.

為了安全起見，該錢包具有行動生物識別和用戶密碼保護功能，其代碼已經過 Trail of Bits 審核。該應用程式的程式碼也是開源的，可在 GitHub 上取得。

Function-wise, Kraken Wallet supports decentralized finance (DeFi) tokens, nonfungible tokens (NFTs), interaction with decentralized applications (dApps) through Wallet Connect, and "24/7/365" customer support.

從功能上來說，Kraken 錢包支援去中心化金融（DeFi）代幣、不可替代代幣（NFT）、透過 Wallet Connect 與去中心化應用程式（dApp）互動以及「24/7/365」客戶支援。

"Kraken Wallet is how we invest in the your keys, your crypto ecosystem which is vital for the existence of permissionless financial access," said Eric Kuhn, product director for Kraken Wallet, in a statement.

Kraken 錢包產品總監 Eric Kuhn 在一份聲明中表示：“Kraken 錢包是我們投資您的密鑰和加密生態系統的方式，這對於無需許可的金融訪問的存在至關重要。”

Exchanges have increasingly turned to the self-custody wallet sector amid a worldwide regulatory tightening on their activities.

隨著全球範圍內對其活動的監管收緊，交易所越來越多地轉向自我託管錢包領域。

On April 11, Kraken announced that it is winding down support for the Monero privacy token for its customers based in Ireland and Belgium. Last October, the exchange suspended support for several stablecoins, such as Tether (USDT) and DAI, for its Canadian users. 

4 月 11 日，Kraken 宣布將逐步停止對愛爾蘭和比利時客戶的門羅幣隱私代幣支援。去年 10 月，該交易所暫停了對其加拿大用戶的幾種穩定幣的支持，例如 Tether (USDT) 和 DAI。

In many jurisdictions, self-custody wallets are not subjected to the same rules that apply to money transmitters, such as exchanges, as they do not natively process fiat money transactions.

在許多司法管轄區，自我託管錢包不受適用於貨幣傳輸者（例如交易所）的相同規則的約束，因為它們本身並未處理法定貨幣交易。

On March 19, the European Parliament scrapped a 1,000 euro ($1,080) limit on cryptocurrency payments from self-hosted crypto wallets as part of new Anti-Money Laundering laws.

3 月 19 日，作為新反洗錢法的一部分，歐洲議會取消了對自託管加密錢包的加密貨幣支付 1,000 歐元（1,080 美元）的限制。

Similarly, on March 28, U.S. District Judge Katherine Failla ruled that Coinbase Wallet was "not a broker" and, therefore, not subject to brokerage rules set forth by the Securities and Exchange Commission. 

同樣，3 月 28 日，美國地區法官 Katherine Failla 裁定 Coinbase Wallet“不是經紀人”，因此不受美國證券交易委員會制定的經紀規則的約束。
