Introduzione

Trust Wallet, owned by Binance co-founder Changpeng Zhao, has partnered with Revolut to enable direct crypto purchases for users in Europe. The integration allows buying Bitcoin, Ether, and Solana with a minimum purchase of €10 and a daily cap of €23,000. While stablecoins like USDC are not yet supported, the feature supports multiple fiat currencies with zero transaction fees. However, funding a Revolut account may incur charges. The move follows Revolut’s recent regulatory approval under MiCA and its $75 billion valuation.

Trust Wallet, the self-custodial crypto wallet owned by Binance co-founder Changpeng “CZ” Zhao, has partnered with European fintech unicorn and digital banking giant Revolut to introduce a new way to purchase crypto assets on its platform.

Trust Wallet users can now buy Bitcoin (BTC), Ether (ETH) and Solana (SOL) with Revolut through a direct integration, the company announced on Thursday.

With a minimum purchase starting at 10 euros ($12) and capped at 23,000 euros ($26,950) daily and per transaction, Trust Wallet’s new buy option is expected to provide a faster and easier way to access crypto from Europe.

In October, Revolut scored regulatory approval from the Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission to offer crypto services across 30 European Economic Area markets in compliance with the European Union’s Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCA) framework.

Stablecoins like USDC not supported, for now

The integration will initially support only three crypto assets, but the companies said they expect to add stablecoins such as Circle’s USDC (USDC) at a later stage.

The feature enables zero-fee crypto purchases using multiple fiat currencies supported by Revolut, including the euro, the British pound, as well as the Czech koruna, Danish Krone, Polish Złoty and others.

While Revolut–Trust Wallet crypto purchases are offered with zero fees, adding money to a Revolut account is not free of charge in many cases, including via bank transfers, card top-ups and cash deposits. Cash deposits are subject to a 1.5% fee and are limited to $3,000 per calendar month, according to Revolut’s FAQs.

The integration came shortly after Revolut secured a $75 billion company valuation after completing a private share sale in late November. “This makes us Europe’s most valuable private company and in the top 10 of the world’s most valuable private companies,” Revolut said in a post on X.

CZ-backed Trust Wallet has been actively tapping into trending market sectors, including prediction markets and real-world asset tokenization, expanding access to these offerings for self-custody users.

Cointelegraph contacted Revolut and Trust Wallet for comment on the integration, but had not received a response by publication.

When Crypto Faith Becomes the 'Plato's Cave' in Modern Investing

In "When Crypto Belief Becomes a Modern 'Plato's Cave'," the author reflects on how initial optimism in cryptocurrency has evolved into a "sunk cost trap," where past investments—whether financial, temporal, or emotional—keep individuals tethered to an ecosystem that may no longer serve their best interests. Drawing parallels to Plato’s allegory of the cave, the piece argues that many in crypto remain chained not by ignorance but by their accumulated stakes, mistaking shadows (past efforts) for reality. The author shares a personal journey from professional poker to crypto, illustrating how sunk costs—like a decade in poker—can create a "luxurious trap" that’s hard to escape. Despite crypto’s maturation (e.g., Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs, Robinhood adopting blockchain tech), the landscape has shifted: traditional finance co-opts crypto innovations, and gains increasingly flow to insiders or equities rather than retail token holders. The article categorizes crypto adherents into four camps (pro-Bitcoin, pro-crypto, both, or neither) and further divides them based on belief in future upside. It suggests that only those fully convinced of crypto’s potential should devote all their time to it; others should diversify skills and consider exit strategies. The core message: don’t let sunk costs imprison you in a fading dream. Freedom lies in acknowledging when to step away and explore broader opportunities beyond the crypto.
