Nubank boosts crypto adoption in Latin America
Support for crypto deposits and withdrawals comes a few months after the neobank announced plans to enable these options. The digital bank made the announcement in December last year.
As it bolsters crypto adoption with the new feature, Nubank takes another huge step towards cementing its position as one of the top financial institutions in Latin America.
Recently, a survey report showed the company ranks among the best banks globally and tops Forbes’ list for financial institutions in Brazil and Mexico.
The digital bank’s innovative solutions and crypto milestones set it apart from other providers. Nubank is at the forefront of promoting digital assets adoption across the traditional banking ecosystem.
In 2022, Nubank established itself among the top neobanking platforms supporting crypto adoption when it rolled out trading support for Bitcoin and Ethereum.
The crypto bank collaborated with blockchain infrastructure firm Paxos in its venture into digital assets trading and custody services.
