Just because you didn't heard of it, doesn't mean its not a big name. Also Kraken is a Exchange not a trading firm.

Of course my awareness isn't what decides if a firm is a major one, and I did refer to crypto firms in general.

In any case, apparently these guys are a big deal and I hadn't heard of them. Maybe it's European bias, and I'm not a crypto expert or anything, just interested.
