kraken-funding-ops

Use this skill for:

• checking deposit methods and addresses
• tracking deposit and withdrawal status
• withdrawing funds to pre-approved addresses
• transferring between spot and futures wallets

Deposit Workflow

1. Find available methods for an asset:

   kraken deposit methods BTC -o json 2>/dev/null
   

2. Get a deposit address:

   kraken deposit addresses BTC "Bitcoin" -o json 2>/dev/null
   

3. Generate a new address (if supported):

   kraken deposit addresses BTC "Bitcoin" --new -o json 2>/dev/null
   

4. Monitor incoming deposits:

   kraken deposit status --asset BTC -o json 2>/dev/null
   

Filter by time range:

kraken deposit status --asset BTC --start 1704067200 --end 1706745600 -o json 2>/dev/null

Paginate large result sets:

kraken deposit status --asset BTC --limit 25 --cursor <CURSOR> -o json 2>/dev/null

Withdrawal Workflow

1. Check available methods:

   kraken withdrawal methods --asset BTC -o json 2>/dev/null
   

2. Check pre-approved addresses:

   kraken withdrawal addresses --asset BTC --verified true -o json 2>/dev/null
   

3. Get fee estimate:

   kraken withdrawal info BTC "my-btc-address" 0.5 -o json 2>/dev/null
   

4. Execute withdrawal (requires human approval):

   kraken withdraw BTC "my-btc-address" 0.5 -o json 2>/dev/null
   

5. Track status:

   kraken withdrawal status --asset BTC -o json 2>/dev/null
   

Cancel a pending withdrawal:

kraken withdrawal cancel BTC <REFID> -o json 2>/dev/null

Wallet Transfer

Move funds between spot and futures wallets:

kraken wallet-transfer USD 1000 --from <SPOT_IIBAN> --to <FUTURES_IIBAN> -o json 2>/dev/null

Futures-specific transfer:

kraken futures transfer 1000 USD -o json 2>/dev/null

Check transfer history:

kraken futures transfers -o json 2>/dev/null

Fee-Aware Withdrawal Pattern

Always check fees before withdrawing. Compare the fee to the withdrawal amount:

INFO=$(kraken withdrawal info BTC "my-btc-address" 0.5 -o json 2>/dev/null)
# Parse .fee and .limit from the response
# Present fee to user before proceeding

Hard Rules

• Withdrawals are flagged as dangerous. Never execute without explicit human approval.
• Always verify the withdrawal address matches a pre-approved address in account settings.
• Use --verified true when listing addresses to confirm approval status.
• Check fees before every withdrawal; network fees fluctuate.
• Cancel pending withdrawals promptly if the user changes their mind: the window is short.
