German cooperative banks cryptocurrency integration

Overview

DZ Bank launched meinKrypto, a cryptocurrency trading platform integrated into the VR Banking App for German cooperative banks. The service is licensed under EU MiCA regulation and authorized by BaFin, utilizing a partnership structure where DZ Bank serves as the licensed provider, EUWAX AG handles order execution, and Börse Stuttgart Digital Custody GmbH manages custody.

While the platform is available through local Volksbanken and Raiffeisenbanken, adoption varies among institutions. Following the launch, Raiffeisenbank Auerbach-Freihung implemented the service, becoming the first cooperative bank in the Oberpfalz region to offer digital currency trading through its app.
