Revolut on Steroids: $1B Incoming at a $65B Valuation?!

[Lexluther]

Hey crypto and fintech fam! Looks like Revolut — the darling of digital banking — is cooking up something BIG.

Word on the street (well, Financial Times actually ) is that Revolut is in talks to raise $1 billion in funding at a mind-blowing $65 billion valuation!

For context: in 2024, they were valued at “just” $45B. That's some serious glow-up.

Here’s the tea:

American investment giant Greenoaks might lead the round,
The raise includes both new shares and selling some old ones,
In 2024, employees already sold some equity — Coatue, D1 Capital, and Tiger Global jumped in,
Revolut still waiting on that full UK banking license (yo, regulators, what’s the holdup? ),
And they’ve got around 60 million users worldwide. That’s basically the population of Italy. 🤯

In case you’ve been living under a rock: Revolut isn’t just another fintech app. They’re trying to become a full-blown online bank — and honestly, they might just pull it off.

So what do y’all think? Hype? Overhype? Would you invest in Revolut if you had the chance?
