Traders across the U.S. and EU can now buy Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, and hundreds of cryptocurrencies using their PayPal account, powered by MoonPay.
Ledger has partnered with Revolut to allow users to buy cryptocurrencies directly through the Ledger Live app, combining Revolut's payment platform with Ledger's secure self-custody solutions.
How to buy crypto via Ledger: Open Ledger Live, go to the "Buy" section, select cryptocurrency, and choose Revolut as the payment option.
Why it matters: The Ledger and Revolut partnership eliminates the need for transfers between exchanges and hardware wallets. It reinforces self-custody, giving users full control over their private keys and reducing reliance on third-party services.
Stepping back: In July 2024, Revolut secured a UK banking license from the PRA after a three-year application process, allowing it to expand services in its largest market.
The Big Picture: This makes Revolut the first bank with self-custody. Does it make a great headline? Yes. Will people use it? Less so.
