How to Earn INK Points by Using Kraken [HUGE AIRDROP]

Kraken just announced their INC points program and it could be the biggest airdrop of 2026. Now you probably know Kraken. It's an exchange. You can buy

Kraken. It's an exchange. You can buy and trade crypto and well that's exactly what you can do there. But Kraken also has developed its own layer 2 blockchain called INC. And it has rolled out an INC points program. So in this video we'll

points program. So in this video we'll take a look at how to start racking up the rewards which is a massive opportunity for traders and airdrop hunters alike. Inc. is built on top of

hunters alike. Inc. is built on top of Ethereum and it extends the Kraken platform and what it is capable of enabling it for DeFi deployments along with any other blockchainbased apps. Now

keep in mind crypto moves incredibly fast and as for INC points users can accumulate these rewards through eligible activities on Kraken. That's

trading crypto and that's trading stocks. Kraken has stocks now by the

stocks. Kraken has stocks now by the way. Those points then show up in a user

way. Those points then show up in a user dashboard so you can track your rewards over time. This page unlocks in about

over time. This page unlocks in about four days from the time of recording this video, but Kraken's given me an exclusive look into what's coming next.

Now, the program includes weekly boosts, a leaderboard structure, and a tier progression. There are five tiers and

progression. There are five tiers and all right up to VIP at the top based on accumulated points with benefits unlocking as you progress. Inc points

are not a one-off feature, and it makes more sense to think about this system, which is currently still only in season 1, as an ongoing activity program tied to the Kraken trading platform. You use

the product and its features. Points

accumulate and your position changes over time depending on your participation. Eligible activities to

participation. Eligible activities to boost points earnings include depositing funds on Kraken, trading futures, staking assets, all of which are activities you'll probably want to try out anyway. The first Inc. points drop

out anyway. The first Inc. points drop is scheduled for April 6th. So, let's

look at those activities that you can do on Kraken right now to start farming ink points. Starting with depositing funds

points. Starting with depositing funds and buying spot crypto. So, if you're just buying crypto, then first you need to create your Kraken account, complete verification. By the way, Kraken's

verification. By the way, Kraken's available in a lot of major jurisdictions, including the USA and the UK. But this is all required before you

UK. But this is all required before you can use the full range of features. Now,

once that's done, the next step is to fund your account either through a bank transfer, a card payment, PayPal, or if you're already holding crypto, you can deposit USDT or something similar by moving it across to Kraken. That means

you're depositing funds, and that is a point earning activity, by the way.

Nice. Once your account is funded, you can then visit the trade section. You

should be on BTC by default. You can

then enter the amount of Bitcoin that you want to buy either in BTC or in the US dollar amount that you want to spend.

Make the purchase as a market order so the order executes at the best market price. Alternatively, you can set a

price. Alternatively, you can set a limit order if you're thinking price is going to go lower, I'll buy cheaper.

Meaning that you set the price at which you want the order to execute. You can

especially use this method if you're expecting prices to fall further and have a level at which you want to start buying. Of course, there are no

buying. Of course, there are no guarantees in markets. Maybe you don't get your order filled, but why not? The

good thing about spot trading, there's no leverage involved. There are no liquidations, and so the risks are basically that the price of your coins go down, but you still have your coins.

But then that's the case, whether you're trading crypto, stocks, commodities, or anything else. And that's why we keep on

anything else. And that's why we keep on top of what the markets are doing. But

the point is, if you're just looking to accumulate BTC longterm or to track the cycle and swing trade over medium-term periods, then spot buying is the simplest way to go, as you can just buy and hold. it. Of course, Kraken has a

and hold. it. Of course, Kraken has a huge range of listed coins. It's an OG exchange. They've been around forever.

exchange. They've been around forever.

So, you can put together a basket of altcoins, too, if you want. And you can also earn on your cryptocurrency holdings, another activity that picks up inc points. To do this, click on the

inc points. To do this, click on the earn tab, and you'll then see which assets are eligible along with APYs. So,

you can expect to receive. Okay. For

example, Salana currently gives 6.18%.

Well, the maximum return is over 20% on Cosmos. Obviously, high risk altcoins

Cosmos. Obviously, high risk altcoins bring in higher returns. Another

activity that gets you points is trying futures trading. So for that, click on

futures trading. So for that, click on the trade futures tab. Notice here you can trade tokenized stocks, something we'll get into in a moment. However, be

aware that access to this feature may depend on your location, and in some places you need to register as a professional client in order to use derivatives. Now, if you want to trade

derivatives. Now, if you want to trade with leverage, you can also get familiar with the trade margin section. This is

where you can amplify your positions, although of course you're amplifying your risks, exposing yourself to greater chance of loss when you do this. and

you'll need to pay funding fees as long as you have position open. We might also get paid funding fees depending which way the market's going, but you know, just be aware of that. Finally, let's

take a quick look at tokenized stocks on Kraken. Again, this depends on your

Kraken. Again, this depends on your location, but for some users, Kraken now offers access to tokenized stocks and ETFs through X stocks. Basically, these

are tokenized representations of listed US equities and ETFs shown with an X added to the ticker. So, you'd get names like Nvidia X, Tesla X. The idea here is that these give users stock market

exposure but on the crypto rails. So you

can do all your trading in one place. No

need to switch back and forth between multiple platforms. And plus you can trade these 247.

And you can operate with leverage up to 20x leverage on stocks. Actually taking

both long and short positions has never been easier when using Kraken. It's

incredibly convenient and it's all part of the way that the lines between crypto and tradi are being constantly blurred.

And it all earns ink points. In the

future, we might not even view crypto and stocks as a separate asset class or at least overlap a lot more closely than ever before. Overall, then you've got

ever before. Overall, then you've got tons of options on Kraken. Crypto,

stocks, derivatives trading, passive earning on your tokens, even just depositing will give you the opportunity to accumulate ink points. So, there's a huge amount to dive into. There is a link down below, okay? Use that link
