Kraken, one of the leading cryptocurrency exchanges, is set to go public in early next year. As part of its strategy to diversify its services, the company has made a significant move by branching out from digital assets to begin trading American stocks and exchange-traded funds (ETFs) through a partnership with Alpaca.

As it gears up for its launch, the Texas Stock Exchange (TSXE) is actively building a team to capture market share in the U.S. exchange-traded funds (ETF) sector, which exceeds $11 trillion in assets. This strategy involves attracting top talent from major industry players such as Cboe Global Markets and Nasdaq.
