• The users will need to create an Etana Custody Wallet first, in order to be able to use it.
• There is another requirement to link the bank account/s of the user to the Etana Custody Wallet.
Once the above two conditions are fulfilled, the user can then start to use the wire service. On average, the service takes around 1 to 5 days to complete the process.
Etana Custody Wallet-
Upon setting up the wallet, it immediately gets synced with the user’s Kraken account. From this point onwards, the user can enjoy faster transfers that are free as well.
The user can also enjoy currency conversion from a range of fiat currencies. The users are given the freedom to wire a range of currencies to the Etna wallet. If they wish they can then convert them to any of the five main currencies in order to fund their accounts. Read more about the crypto exchange in USA here.
With Etana Custody Wallet, the user can carry out domestic and international transactions i.e., any withdrawal, and deposit. The only exception in this facility is the domestic transactions (neither the withdrawal nor the deposits) in JYP (Japan’s Yen.)
