“As of March 27, 2023, Kraken clients will no longer be able to use ACH deposits and withdrawals through Silvergate,” the company told CoinDesk in an email. “We are working to make ACH funding options available through alternative funding providers as soon as possible and will communicate details with clients as soon as we can.”

No other services will be affected by this change, Kraken said. The exchange plans to resume ACH deposits and withdrawals as soon as it finds alternative funding providers.
