Strike Expands Bitcoin Support Across Europe

A popular software that is only available for Bitcoin, Strike is expanding its offerings to satisfy the growing demand for cryptocurrencies in Europe. CEO Jack Mallers announced plans to support the adoption of Bitcoin around the continent in response to local demand and the recent surge in cryptocurrency values.

Strike makes it possible for qualified European customers to buy, trade, and transfer Bitcoin with ease as of right now. Interestingly, users may purchase Bitcoin straight from their bank accounts by utilizing unlimited Single Euro Payments Area (SEPA) payments. SEPA includes all 36 member nations of the European Union as well as the United Kingdom.

Versatile Withdrawal Options

Jack Mallers emphasized Strike’s commitment to user autonomy, allowing Bitcoin withdrawals either into self-custody wallets or via the Lightning Network. This flexibility enhances user control over their digital assets, empowering them to manage funds according to personal preferences.

Moreover, Strike facilitates peer-to-peer transfers, facilitating seamless cross-border transactions denominated in Bitcoin or fiat currencies like euros and U.S. dollars. The app’s versatile functionality caters to diverse user needs, enabling efficient and cost-effective monetary transfers.

Mallers reiterated Strike’s dedication to global expansion and service enhancement. He emphasized ongoing efforts to enter new markets, support additional currencies, introduce new payment methods, and refine user experience, reflecting a commitment to continuous improvement.

The launch of Strike into European markets is timed to take advantage of the growing interest in Bitcoin and associated services in the region. Europe is the top region in Google searches for Bitcoin technology developments. More than 60 institutions there provide services related to digital assets.
