However, the exchange did not come through and SHIB is still not listed on Kraken. “Community is an important part of our considerations for all listings, and you have clearly shown your support. There’s more work for us to do as we move through our listing review process,” Kraken tweeted after it failed to list SHIB Tuesday.
