The company’s plans further include allowing clients to open accounts in EUR and conduct transactions with Bitcoin , Ethereum, and Litecoin in-app. Customers will also be able to invest money in Revolut Global shares and bonds with its wealth product.

Nikolay Storonovsky, co-founder and CEO of Revolut Global, said in an interview recently that corporate banks look to Revolut Global to find new products to offer their clients, but they move too slowly in his opinion: “Adding Cryptocurrencies and the ability to buy and sell them is a big step forward for a financial organization.”

About a year ago, the banking fintech company ran a £1 million crowdfunding campaign, in which 10,000 investors were willing to fund Revolut Global with more than £17 million. Another crowdfunding campaign has been scheduled to go up later this month with a total of £4 million, following last year’s outcome.
