| > I’ve heard good things about Kraken. I’d be interested to learn more about who the founders are and how reputable they seem, as well as learning more about where the funding originates. Jesse is and has been a solid member of the BTC community for over a decade; he doesn't do as much PR as that clown Armstrong does, especially not in the SV/VC circles until recently since he's stepped down, but the guy is sharp and he knows why he got into it. Kraken still remains after all this time and was around since the latter days of MTGOX. And just so it's clear PoR has been something exchanges have been independently verifying since the final goxxing in 2014, but ultimately you are trusting that they won't restrict withdraws which is ALWAYS a gamble regardless of situation or circumstance hence why 'not your keys, not your coins' has become a mantra for over a decade.
