RBI and Bitpanda Unite for Region-Wide Crypto Adoption

Raiffeisen Bank International (RBI) and Bitpanda are teaming up to bring digital assets to over 18 million banking customers across Central and Eastern Europe.

The partnership aims to accelerate digital asset adoption in the region by creating a shared infrastructure that allows banks within the RBI group to integrate digital assets into their existing service offerings.

This framework is built on an integration already successfully tested in the Austrian market, where Raiffeisenlandesbank Niederösterreich-Wien became one of the first traditional banks in the European Union to grant its customers access to crypto assets within their existing banking environment using Bitpanda's infrastructure.
