According to a <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-02-01/dz-bank-will-pilotphase-fur-bitcoin-handel-dieses-jahr-starten" target="_blank">report</a> by Bloomberg on February 1, DZ Bank is preparing to launch a cryptocurrency trading pilot later this year. The bank will conduct a pilot phase of cryptocurrency retail transactions with the first batch of partner banks.
The main Banks will test Bitcoin transactions with customers. Contrary to original plans, the bank will not be implementing it in partnership with DWP Bank. The bank has not revealed the new partner for piloting Bitcoin trading.
Souad Benkredda, a board member of DZ Bank, said “Over the course of the year we will enter the pilot phase for retail trading of cryptocurrencies with the first cooperative banks”. This means that primary banks will test trading Bitcoin with customers.
DZ Bank has expanded its reach into the crypto market amid massive demand from institutional investors. It now plans to deepen its crypto presence with crypto trading services, including Bitcoin.
