Germany’s Sparkassen Just Opened the Bitcoin Floodgates – Public Savings Banks to Offer Crypto Trading in 2025
Breaking the mold of traditional finance, Germany's sprawling Sparkassen network is diving headfirst into crypto.
The 200-year-old public savings bank system—yes, the same one your conservative uncle trusts—is reportedly preparing to offer Bitcoin trading to its 50 million customers. Talk about institutional adoption moving at Lichtgeschwindigkeit.
While legacy banks still debate blockchain, Sparkassen's move could onboard more Germans to crypto than all the 'To the Moon' memes combined. Just don't expect them to explain shitcoin season to Oma Gertrude.
One small step for Sparkassen, one giant middle finger to the 'crypto is dead' crowd. The future's here—and it's being underwritten by the same institutions that still charge €25 for an international wire transfer.
