KBC Bank Breaks Ground: Bitcoin & Ethereum Trading Goes Live in Belgium

Belgium’s financial giants can no longer ignore crypto—KBC just flipped the switch.

From Skepticism to Adoption

The 100-year-old institution is rolling out BTC and ETH trading to its retail clients, joining the ranks of European banks dipping toes in digital assets. No more shuffling customers to third-party exchanges—KBC’s app now cuts out the middleman.

Regulatory Green Light

Brussels’ quiet nod to crypto infrastructure paved the way. KBC’s compliance team likely burned midnight oil aligning with MiCAR frameworks—because nothing says 'innovation' like 300 pages of regulatory fine print.

The Fine Print

Fees? Competitive. Limits? Conservative. The offering targets 'educated investors'—bank-speak for 'we warned you when ETH drops 20% in a day.'

Traditional finance’s crypto FOMO reaches new heights. Will others follow or keep pretending blockchain is a 'niche trend' between golf rounds?
