In a company statement issued April 8, the firm officially announced BUX Crypto – a digital assets trading platform offering a limited-time zero-commission fee structure.
At the start of the year, BUX acquired the defunct crypto exchange, Blockport, which declared bankruptcy in a court in Amsterdam in May 2019, after running out of operating capital.
The acquisition has paved the way for the brokerage platform to begin offering cryptocurrencies to European traders, pending regulatory approval by the Dutch central bank, De Nederlandsche Bank.
"We have been developing apps that fit the needs of a new generation of investors," said Said Nick Bortot, CEO and founder at BUX in a statement.
“We see BUX Crypto as a natural extension of our current lineup ... for even the newest investor to get into the financial markets," Bortot added.
