 <h2 id="span-style-font-weight-400-what-does-strike-s-expansion-to-europe-mean-span">What does Strike’s expansion to Europe mean?</h2>
 Strike’s launch in the <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="Europe" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/europe.html">Europe</a>an market comes as the <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="Crypto" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/crypto.html">Crypto</a> sector experiences renewed interest, particularly after the debut of spot Bitcoin ETFs in the United States. BTC price rallying to highs of $73k is fueling fresh demand amid the halving.
 The expansion into Europe will see the Bitcoin-centric platform challenge for dominance in a market that has the likes of eToro, Coinbase and BitPanda.
 Strike aims to allow users a chance to buy and sell Bitcoin at much lower processing fees than what rivals such as Coinbase currently offer. The platform’s successful pilot with USD-EUR conversions adds to the appeal, which is what traditional money transfer providers like Wise lack.
 As well as <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="Europe" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/europe.html">Europe</a> and the United States, Strike’s services are available in Africa and Latin America. 
 The company raised $80 million in a Series B funding round announced in September 2022.
