Handelszugang & Integration

Kraken Futures is wired into Mantapex through the CCXT integration layer, so importing balances and trade history into a read-only portfolio requires an API key and a secret that you generate inside your own Kraken Futures account. Because Mantapex never custodies your funds, the keys you create should be scoped to read access only — withdrawal, transfer and trading permissions are unnecessary for portfolio tracking and should remain disabled. The headquarters jurisdiction shown above determines the regulatory framework, KYC tier and product mix Kraken Futures can offer a given user, and that scope can change as licensing evolves. Verify eligibility and the local terms of service on the official site before opening an account. The operating history reflected above means there is a comparatively deep public trail of incidents, audits, fee schedules and product launches you can review when sizing Kraken Futures against newer venues.

Connection metadata is read directly from Mantapex's CCXT integration manifest — credential requirements reflect what Kraken Futures itself exposes to read-only API consumers and may evolve as the venue updates its API.

Konto, Verwahrung & Sicherheit bei Kraken Futures

Kraken Futures operates as a custodial trading venue: when you fund an account, the deposited assets are held in wallets controlled by the exchange and credited to your balance as a book-entry until you withdraw them. That trade-off — convenience and order-book liquidity in exchange for counterparty risk — is the central design choice of every centralised exchange and is what makes platform-level security so important to evaluate. Kraken Futures has been running its custody and matching infrastructure since 2011, which gives it 15 years of operational track record for users to review when judging incident history, fund-recovery policy and any insurance or reserve-fund coverage.

Almost every major centralised exchange — including Kraken Futures — operates under some form of KYC ("Know Your Customer") and AML ("Anti-Money-Laundering") obligations imposed by the jurisdiction it serves. Kraken Futures is reported with its operating entity in United States, so its baseline KYC programme follows that jurisdiction's rules — additional verification may still be requested for higher-tier withdrawal or fiat-on-ramp limits, and access to specific products can be restricted depending on where the user resides. Expect to provide a government-issued ID document and a recent proof-of-address at minimum; higher verification tiers may add liveness checks, source-of-funds questionnaires and accredited-investor confirmations.

For the specific case of connecting Kraken Futures to Mantapex, the additional hardening layer is straightforward: generate a dedicated API key for read-only portfolio sync, label it clearly (for example "Mantapex read-only sync"), disable every permission except the minimum the exchange exposes for balance and trade-history queries, and store the secret in a password manager so you can rotate it on a schedule. If Kraken Futures supports IP whitelisting and you connect from a stable address, restrict the key to that address. If you ever stop using Mantapex — or any other third-party dashboard — revoke the key on the exchange side rather than just deleting it from the dashboard, because the credential continues to authenticate against Kraken Futures's API until Kraken Futures itself invalidates it.

So verbinden Sie jede Börse sicher

Enable two-factor authentication on the exchange account itself before generating any API keys. The strongest options are hardware security keys (FIDO2 / WebAuthn devices such as YubiKey or Solo) where supported, followed by an authenticator app on a dedicated device (Aegis, Raivo, 1Password, or Google Authenticator); SMS-based 2FA is the weakest common method because of SIM-swap risk. Keep the recovery phrase or backup codes in offline cold storage rather than the same password manager you sign in with. Where the venue offers a withdrawal-address whitelist, turn it on: it shrinks the blast radius of a stolen key or hijacked session because funds can only leave to a pre-approved address after a cool-down. Pair that with anti-phishing codes, a dedicated email account, and alerts for new logins, withdrawal requests and API-key creation — most exchange-related losses originate from compromised individual accounts, not platform-wide breaches.

Security guidance on this page is generic exchange hardening that applies to every centralised crypto venue. For Kraken Futures's exchange-specific policies — fund-segregation model, proof-of-reserves cadence, insurance coverage and incident-response history — the canonical references are Kraken Futures's own Help Centre and any audit reports or attestations the venue publishes directly.

API-Zugangsdaten für Kraken Futures

Connecting Kraken Futures as a read-only portfolio source on Mantapex relies on the credentials defined by Kraken Futures's own API. The matrix below mirrors exactly what the CCXT integration layer asks for — ticked rows mean the field is required to authenticate, untouched rows mean Kraken Futures doesn't ask for that field at all.

API-Schlüssel

Public identifier that pairs your read-only access with your exchange account.

API-Secret

Private signing string used to authenticate each request — never share it.

API-Passphrase

Additional passphrase set when the key is created (KuCoin, OKX-style models).

Konto-UID

Numeric account identifier that some venues require alongside the API key.

Unterkonto-ID

Used when the venue scopes API access to a specific sub-account.

Anmeldename

A separate username distinct from email, used by a small number of CCXT-supported venues.

TOTP-/2FA-Secret

Time-based one-time-password seed for endpoints that demand a fresh 2FA code.

Privater Wallet-Schlüssel

Self-custody signing key — required only by DEX / on-chain integrations.

Wallet-Adresse

On-chain address tied to the private key for DEX-style integrations.

Bearer-Token

OAuth-style bearer token, occasionally used in place of an HMAC API key pair.

In short, Kraken Futures requires 2 credentials to authenticate API requests: API-Schlüssel and API-Secret. All of these are generated from inside the exchange's own dashboard — Mantapex never asks you to share your account password or to set up an API key with withdrawal permissions enabled.

When you create the key on Kraken Futures for use with Mantapex, restrict its permissions to read-only access (sometimes labelled "view", "read", "query" or "info"). Mantapex only needs to fetch balances, trade history and open positions. Withdrawal, trade-execution and transfer scopes should remain disabled. If Kraken Futures offers a granular permission model, the safest combination is: enable "Read" or "View", disable "Trade" or "Spot trade", disable "Withdraw" or "Universal Transfer", and leave any margin / futures permission switched off unless you specifically want those positions visible inside your portfolio dashboard.

Some exchanges — Binance, OKX, Bybit, Bitget, KuCoin and several Asia-Pacific venues — offer an optional IP whitelist when you create the API key. Leaving the whitelist empty lets the key authenticate from any address, which is the simplest setup for use with a cloud-hosted dashboard such as Mantapex. If Kraken Futures forces you to enter at least one IP and you don't have a static address, you can usually use a placeholder value the exchange recognises (for example "0.0.0.0/0" or the wildcard option) — consult Kraken Futures's API documentation before relying on that workaround. Either way, the credentials remain in a read-only scope and cannot be used to move funds off the venue.

Kraken Futures may rotate or extend its API in the future — if the exchange asks for a credential not listed here when you create the key, you can safely ignore it for the purpose of a read-only Mantapex import.
