Dutch neobank Bunq today launched a crypto trading service for over 300 cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana.<\/span><\/p>\n

The service launches today and is available to Bunq users in the Netherlands, France, Spain, Ireland, Italy, and Belgium. It\u2019s offered via Kraken, one of the world\u2019s largest cryptocurrency<\/a> exchanges.  <\/span><\/p>\n

Bunq plans to \u201cgradually expand\u201d the offering to the rest of the European Economic Area (EEA), the UK, and the US. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cOur users across the world have long waited for a simple, safe, and straightforward way to invest in digital assets,\u201d said Ali Niknam, the bank\u2019s founder and CEO. <\/span><\/p>\n

Niknam \u2014 who will reveal his growth strategy at <\/span>TNW Conference<\/span><\/a> on June 20 \u2014 founded Bunq in 2012. The Dutch unicorn company has grown to become Europe\u2019s second-largest neobank, with over 17 million registered users, behind only Revolut\u2019s 50 million users.<\/span><\/p>\n

The launch of its first crypto offering follows a period of strong growth for Bunq. <\/span>The company reported \u20ac85.3mn in profits for 2024, marking its second consecutive year of profitability and a 65% jump from the previous year.<\/span> It has also recently applied for banking licences<\/span> in the UK<\/span><\/a> and <\/span>the US<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

With its expansion into crypto trading, however, Bunq is entering a crowded market. The platform will compete with heavyweights, including Revolut \u2014 the continent\u2019s leading neobank and<\/span> most valuable fintech<\/span><\/a>. <\/span>Revolut has been offering crypto trading since 2017, allowing users to buy, hold, and exchange digital assets within its app. <\/span><\/p>\n

Neobanks typically make money off crypto by charging transaction fees on trades or conversions. While the crypto market has been notoriously <\/span>volatile<\/span> in recent years, it\u2019s widely<\/a> predicted<\/a> to grow substantially over the next decade.<\/span><\/p>\n
