Why It Matters: While the SHIB Kraken listing time is not yet clear, it is still of significance as Kraken is the fifth-largest cryptocurrency exchange by volume, as per CoinMarketCap.

Kraken posted on Twitter that it recognizes the importance of community, which it said was an important “consideration for all listings.”

It also noted that “there’s more work for us to do as we move through our listing review process.”

SHIB’s latest listings on Coinbase Global Inc’s COIN platforms buoyed the cryptocurrency. There is also an increasing clamor for the coin to be listed on Robinhood Markets Inc HOOD.

A listing by Kraken could give SHIB a boost as its latest rally loses steam. At press time, SHIB traded 6.68% lower at $0.00006542 over 24 hours.

Last week, Dogecoin DOGE/USD got flipped in terms of market cap by the soaring SHIB, which styles itself as so-called DOGE-Killer. Notably, the meme coin is still up 23.09% over a seven-day period.
