A notable number of people report delays in their Solana deposits to Kraken, raising concerns over potential issues with transaction processing. Many claim their transactions show as successful on the Solana blockchain but remain on hold within their Kraken accounts for over a week.
Users Express Concerns
In a recent post on user boards, one person shared their experience after transferring a substantial amount of Solana to Kraken. Despite confirmation of successful blockchain activity, their account has been on hold, leaving them unsure of the next steps to retrieve their funds.
"What do I need to do to receive my coin?" the user asked, indicating both urgency and frustration over the lack of communication.
Support Responses
Kraken support acknowledged the situation, stating:
"To assist you further provide your Public Account ID or support ticket number. Once we have that, we’ll be able to look into the issue."
This indicates an understanding of the situation, but also highlights a bureaucratic process that may prolong wait times for some users.
Possible Causes of Delay
Comments from people shed light on possible reasons for the delays:
Internal Processing: Kraken might still be processing the deposit internally. This could be due to their review procedures, especially if the user's account is under scrutiny.
Network Congestion: Some suggest that Solana network congestion could also be a factor, complicating timely confirmations.
Account Status: The current hold on the account may block the deposit from successfully moving to the user’s balance.
User Sentiments
Feedback in the user boards reflects a mix of frustration and impatience.
Several pointed out:
"If the transaction shows as successful on the Solana blockchain but still shows 'pending' on Kraken"
