The ten market players in this report and a brief synopsis of their participation in the market are:
Revolut, JPMorgan Chase, BlackRock, Coinbase, Mercury, BCB Group, Sygnum, Bank Frick, Customers Bank, and Monzo are among the ten major companies shaping the cryptocurrency banking market by combining custody, fiat-crypto rails, institutional services, and regulatory engagement. Revolut has expanded from neobank roots into a broad financial super-app with integrated crypto trading and staking for retail customers, supporting 130+ assets and tens of millions of users. JPMorgan Chase has built institutional blockchain infrastructure (Onyx) and the JPM Coin for interbank and corporate settlement while offering custody and research to professional clients, signaling traditional banking’s deepening crypto involvement. BlackRock, though primarily an asset manager rather than a bank, exerts enormous influence through its iShares Bitcoin and Ethereum trusts which have rapidly grown AUM and tied mainstream institutional capital flows to regulated crypto products. Coinbase functions as a primary custodian and banking partner for many digital-asset ETFs and institutional clients, providing custody, trading, and settlement services that bridge exchange liquidity with traditional finance. Mercury and Customers Bank have positioned themselves as fintech and crypto-friendly commercial banks by offering clean fiat-to-crypto workflows, real-time payment rails, APIs for exchanges and liquidity providers, and tokenized payment products that support startup and exchange operations. BCB Group operates specialized payments and settlement infrastructure for institutional crypto clients across GBP, EUR, and CHF and has expanded regionally to serve exchanges, OTC desks, and liquidity providers with its BLINC real-time network. Sygnum and Bank Frick represent regulated “crypto banks” in Switzerland and Liechtenstein that provide custody, trading, tokenization, and compliance-focused services to private banking and institutional clients, leveraging supportive local frameworks to offer custody, staking, and direct market access. Customers Bank’s CBIT token and instant-settlement features have made it a go-to for high-frequency fiat settlements by exchanges and market-makers, reducing friction in large-volume trading operations. Monzo, while more conservative on active trading, remains influential in retail rails by enabling seamless transfers to regulated exchanges and integrating crypto-related payment flows within its digital banking experience.
These firms differ in customer focus, regulatory posture, and product mix but together define the modern crypto-banking ecosystem: retail-facing fintechs providing in-app trading and payment rails; incumbent banks layering institutional custody, research, and tokenized products; and specialist crypto banks and payment processors offering settlement, liquidity, and real-world-asset tokenization services. Regulatory developments and clearer guidance—highlighted by expanding national charters and evolving supervisory stances—have accelerated incumbents’ willingness to offer custody and settlement solutions, while asset managers and exchanges have driven demand for bank-grade custody and fiat rails through large ETF inflows and institutional adoption. Geographic specialization also matters: Swiss and Liechtenstein-based crypto banks capitalize on favorable frameworks for custody and tokenization, U.S. and UK banks concentrate on ETF and institutional product support, and regional payment specialists expand liquidity and instant-settlement networks across fiat corridors.
Market risks and competitive dynamics come from regulatory shifts, counterparty exposure, and concentration of stablecoin and ETF flows; USDT/USDC dominance in settlement volumes and the rapid growth of spot Bitcoin ETFs have concentrated market liquidity in a few instruments and providers, elevating the importance of robust banking partners and transparent reserve practices for custodial and settlement banks. Strategic responses by the ten companies include expanding custody services, developing proprietary payment rails and tokenized-asset platforms, pursuing regulatory charters or clearances, and forging partnerships with exchanges and asset managers to capture both retail and institutional flows, thereby cementing their roles as critical infrastructure providers in the evolving crypto-banking landscape.
