European banks are at risk of losing customers to rivals with better crypto tools

A new study found that while European investors find crypto complex, they are increasingly willing to switch banks to find a trusted partner that offers secure and regulated digital asset services. What to know : A Boerse Stuttgart Digital survey found that more than a third of surveyed investors in Germany, Italy, Spain and France say they would consider switching banks for better crypto investment services, with interest highest in Spain. About a quarter of respondents already own digital assets, yet majorities still feel poorly informed, view crypto as too complex and see it as insufficiently regulated and risky. Traditional banks retain a trust advantage over specialized platforms for crypto services, and many investors say clearer E.U. rules such as the MiCA framework increase their confidence in digital assets.(Coindesk)
