BBVA Becomes First Major Spanish Bank With In-App Crypto Trading
-

BBVA has launched 24/7 Bitcoin and Ether trading for retail clients in Spain, becoming the first major lender in the country to integrate crypto into its mainstream mobile banking app.Approved by Spain’s CNMV under the EU’s new MiCA framework, the rollout lets customers buy, sell and custody BTC and ETH using the same rails as foreign-exchange trades. BBVA says the move reflects rising demand from everyday investors for digital assets inside regulated banking systems.
Singapore-based SGX FX provides the pricing and risk-management tech, enabling banks to add crypto without overhauling their entire infrastructure.
