Source categories — what feeds this score

Why this matters: Single-source review sites read very differently from the composite. Selection bias — only the loudest users self-report — is reduced here by aggregating across several sources. The category breakdown below shows the current mix and contribution without naming individual platforms. Methodology v2.1.

Source ingest configuration for this brand is in progress. The category contribution table will appear here once the first scrape targets are registered.

Counts are grouped from the source rows in this market. Em-dashes mean no eligible signal exists in that category yet.

Evidence collection in progress

Methodology FAQ

How is Kraken rated?

No overall IndexFair score is published for Kraken in the United Kingdom. The publication state and evidence base are shown on this page. The score is withheld for legal-perimeter reasons. The category methodology is not yet certified.

What regulatory standing does Kraken have in the United Kingdom?

Kraken is registered or licensed under FCA-CRYPTO in the United Kingdom. IndexFair's Block-A regulatory grade is not yet graded. A registration reflects regulatory standing only — the IndexFair score adds user-experience signals on top, so a registered brand can still hold a low score.

What are Kraken's strongest and weakest service aspects?

No public aspect projections are shown here for Kraken. Their absence does not establish how much evidence is held.

How long do Kraken exchange withdrawals take?

No operator-stated processing window is available in this answer for Kraken in the United Kingdom (methodology v2.1). No public payout-aspect projection is shown here for Kraken. This does not establish that there are no payout-related signals in the evidence base. Withdrawal-delay complaint totals are not available in this answer.

How is Kraken's reserve transparency evaluated?

Block-A regulatory data for Kraken has not yet been fully captured. Reserve transparency will be scored once attestations are collected.

Where does Kraken's score come from?

The Sources section on this page lists the recorded sources for Kraken and their contribution counts. These counts describe their own evidence scope; they are not an additional total for the overall score.

How often is Kraken's score updated?

Scores recompute automatically whenever new review data, a status change, or a methodology update arrives — typically within a few minutes, not on a daily schedule. Every brand page displays the "last recomputed" timestamp. Methodology version changes are dated at /changelog.

What is the confidence interval shown on the score?

The ±0.x bracket is a 95% confidence interval derived from sample variance and effective sample size after time-decay. A score of 8.4 ± 0.3 reads as: 95% confidence the true value lies in 8.1–8.7 given current evidence. Wider intervals indicate small samples or high source divergence.

Can I trust an automated exchange rating?

The score is computed by a published formula, not editorial judgement — the same inputs always produce the same output and the formula is auditable. Methodology versions are append-only at /changelog with effective dates. Disputes route through /privacy/contact; the founder reviews factual disputes (regulatory data, attestation status).
