Company mission

To empower everyone to understand Bitcoin and own it securely.

Our take

21bitcoin is an app that allows users to buy, sell and hold Bitcoin directly from their phones. With Bitcoin remaining the dominant player in the crypto market, its focus on simplicity and accessibility has driven strong growth since the company's founding in 2021.

Interestingly, the company places no requirements on users to hold a minimum amount, positioning the app as an inclusive entry point into the cryptocurrency space. This approach, combined with features such as savings plans and broader Bitcoin-focused financial tools, reflects its ambition to evolve beyond a simple trading platform into a more comprehensive asset management solution.

21bitcoin has recently strengthened its position through a partnership with BitGo too, which will provide regulated custody of user assets via its European entity. This collaboration enhances security through insured cold storage and ensures compliance with evolving European regulations, marking an important step in the company's maturation as it scales across the region and competes in an increasingly regulated market landscape.
