Fireblocks' MPC technology has processed $70 billion in digital asset transfers to date. Revolut will use this foundation to lower counterparty risk and simplify user transactions, requiring only a single confirmation per transfer.

The partnership strengthens Revolut's standing as one of Europe's largest fintech platforms. Fireblocks will count Revolut as its 100th customer from the financial services sector.

Rising volatility in crypto markets has drawn fresh investor money, and Revolut's leadership saw this partnership as an opportunity to expand its crypto trading service. Ed Cooper, Revolut's head of crypto, said: "It is crucial that our platform takes advantage of the best crypto management solution in the industry because of our market share and worldwide presence. Moving to Fireblocks' wallet infrastructure gives us a competitive edge over other financial applications as it will enable us to rapidly add more advanced crypto features as the space continues to evolve at breakneck speed."

Michael Shaulov, CEO of Fireblocks, said: "We are excited to assist Revolut in driving the adoption of cryptocurrency by providing a trusted infrastructure for the next billion people coming into crypto."
