Spanish bank Bankinter has invested in the cryptocurrency exchange Bit2Me

According to CoinDesk, Spanish bank Bankinter has acquired a minority stake in local cryptocurrency exchange Bit2Me, participating in the €30 million funding round completed by the exchange in August 2025, which also included stablecoin issuer Tether.

This move by Bankinter places it among the growing list of banking shareholders in Bit2Me, which has previously received support from major financial institutions such as Spain's BBVA, Unicaja, and Cecabank. Bit2Me, headquartered in Madrid, is one of the first companies to be registered under the EU's Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCA), allowing it to operate across the EU.
