Kraken has officially launched trading for Citrea (CTR) as of May 26, 2026. Citrea is notable for being the first ZK rollup secured by Bitcoin, which allows for programmable smart contracts while maintaining the security of the Bitcoin blockchain. Users can add CTR to their Kraken accounts by navigating to the Funding section and ensuring they deposit tokens on supported networks, as deposits on unsupported networks will result in loss. CTR serves as a coordination asset within the Bitcoin economy, enabling holders to stake their tokens for xCTR, a governance token that influences emissions and liquidity incentives. The Citrea ecosystem operates under a dual treasury model, with the Citrea Foundation focusing on research and ecosystem funding, while the Citrea Governance Treasury is managed by xCTR holders. Future asset listings on Kraken will be announced shortly before their launch, and users are encouraged to stay updated via Kraken's Listings Roadmap and social media.
