Breakout was acquired by Kraken
Kraken said effective 1 September 2025 it completed the acquisition of Breakout, bringing the evaluation-based crypto prop-trading firm under Kraken so funded traders could access up to $200,000 notional capital and keep up to 90% of profits on Kraken infrastructure.
Successor: Kraken
Founded 2023
On 4 September 2025 Kraken and Business Wire announced that Kraken had acquired Breakout effective 1 September 2025. Breakout’s model requires traders to pass a paid evaluation before receiving funded accounts of up to $200,000 notional with profit shares up to 90%. Kraken said Breakout would eventually integrate into Kraken Pro while continuing to operate as a crypto-native prop product on Kraken liquidity.
Breakout ran an evaluation-based proprietary trading program that funded skilled crypto traders with firm capital after they passed performance tests. Founded in 2023, it issued tens of thousands of funded accounts before Kraken acquired the platform and began integrating it toward Kraken Pro.
No. Kraken acquired Breakout in September 1, 2025, and Breakout is not listing jobs on its own.

Look at Kraken. Breakout is not hiring as a standalone company.
Breakout was founded in 2023.
