The crypto exchange says Chainlink CCIP (Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol, blockchain messaging standard) will support kBTC and all future bridged assets on its platform.
Kraken said it has switched to Chainlink CCIP (Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol, blockchain messaging standard) as the exclusive cross-chain provider for kBTC and its upcoming bridged assets. The move indicates Kraken is standardizing how tokenized assets move across multiple blockchains, a process commonly used to improve interoperability (different blockchains working together) and asset access across networks. The announcement specifically names kBTC, a Bitcoin-linked asset issued for cross-chain use, and says the same setup will apply to future bridged assets.
