Kraken enforces a whitelist policy for all withdrawal wallet addresses. This means that before withdrawing any assets to an external wallet, the wallet address must be added to a whitelist in your Kraken account. Follow these steps to whitelist a wallet address using Kraken's standard interface:
Log into your Kraken account. Go to the main Kraken app (not Pro).
Navigate to the “Transfer” tab:
Once logged in, locate the Transfer tab, which is typically displayed on the left side of your dashboard.
Access the “Withdrawals” section:
From the Transfer tab, click on the Withdrawals sub-tab. This will display all available assets for withdrawal.
Select Asset and Chain:
In the Withdrawals section, choose the asset (e.g., Bitcoin, Ethereum, etc.) and the corresponding blockchain network (e.g., BTC, ETH) that you wish to withdraw.
Manage Wallets:
After selecting the asset and chain, click on the Manage Address link and then Add New Withdrawal Address. This will allow you to add a new wallet address to the whitelist for future withdrawals.
Add a New Whitelist Entry:
Enter the Dfns wallet address you wish to whitelist.
Admin Confirmation:
The added wallet address will require confirmation by the account admin before it becomes active. The account admin will receive a notification to confirm the newly added whitelist entry.
Until the wallet address is confirmed, it will not be available for withdrawals.
This whitelisting process adds an extra layer of security, ensuring that only authorized wallet addresses can receive withdrawals from your Kraken account.
