Account Closures: Safeguarding Our Clients and Kraken

We’ve compiled some frequently asked questions to address common inquiries and concerns.
Why does Kraken close accounts?
What happens to my funds?
Is there any way to appeal an account closure?
Can I open a new account?
You asked me to withdraw my funds, but they were placed on hold. Why?
