By enabling native Bitcoin assets and protocols to operate on Layer 2, Merlin Chain aims to facilitate broader application development and increase the functionality of Bitcoin Layer 1 infrastructure.

Will Kraken make more assets available?
Yes! But our policy is to never reveal any details until shortly before launch – including which assets we are considering. All of Kraken’s available tokens can be found here, and all future tokens will be announced on our Listings Roadmap and social media profiles. Our client engagement specialists cannot answer any questions about which assets we may be making available in the future.
