Here is some additional information about this asset:
Nexus (NEX)
Nexus (NEX) is a layer 1 blockchain for verifiable finance, specifically designed for high-frequency financial applications and smart markets. Each node runs Nexus zkVM 3.0, providing verifiable, low-latency infrastructure by design, with validation speed that scales in proportion to computing power. The execution layer uses a parallel dual-core architecture, combining general-purpose and special-purpose financial state machines in a single environment.
The Nexus Exchange, a co-processor integrated into Nexus Layer 1, will offer native order book trading and high-performance execution for perpetual futures contracts. The NEX token is the native gas and utility token of the Nexus ecosystem, used to pay for transactions, verifiable computation, and staking.
Please note:
- Trading through Kraken App and Instant Buy will be available once liquidity conditions are met. (when enough buyers and sellers have entered the market for their orders to be effectively matched).
- Geographic restrictions may apply
Will Kraken make more assets available?
Yes! But our policy is not to reveal any details until shortly before launch, including which assets we are considering. All available Kraken tokens can be found here, and all future tokens will be announced on our announcement roadmap and social media profiles. Our customer engagement specialists cannot answer any questions about what assets we might make available in the future.
