By CCN: Add Jesse Powell to the chorus of crypto exchange CEOS who are done with Craig Wright’s games. San Francisco-based crypto exchange Kraken has announced that it will be delisting Bitcoin SV (BSV), following in the trend-setting footsteps of Binance and later ShapeShift.
Kraken has been engaging with its community about it ever since Binance CEO Changpeng “CZ” Zhao got the ball rolling earlier in the week. In an online poll, nearly three-quarters of Kraken’s followers voted in favor of delisting Bitcoin SV while more than one-fifth of tens of thousands of voters said they didn’t care. Kraken responded, revealing that the last day for trading Bitcoin SV would be May 1 while withdrawals will continue until May 15.
“The people have spoken. Kraken is delisting Bitcoin SV.”

Kraken is one of the first couple crypto exchanges to take CZ’s challenge and “do the right thing.” ShapeShift CEO Erik Voorhees didn’t waste any time, revealing on April 15 that ShapeShift would be rid of Bitcoin SV within 48 hours.
If you ask CZ, he could have told you that it was just a matter of time before Powell pulled the BSV plug, tweeting that the “crypto industry is tighter and stronger [than] you think.”
