Israel’s largest bank, Bank Leumi, plans to allow its customers to trade Bitcoin, Ether, and Solana through its investment app starting in early 2027. This move comes through a partnership with crypto firm Galaxy, aiming to integrate digital assets into traditional banking services, according to CoinTelegraph.
Customers will be able to buy, hold, and sell these cryptocurrencies directly within the bank’s platform, simplifying access to digital assets. CoinDesk highlights this development as a significant step for Bank Leumi in embracing crypto trading within its financial offerings.
As Japan continues to see growing interest in cryptocurrency trading among retail investors, Bank Leumi’s approach reflects a broader trend of established financial institutions incorporating digital assets, which may influence similar moves in the Japanese market.
