“Financial institutions that overlook cryptocurrency as an investment option are dividing their user loyalty among investment firms, fintechs and national banks,” said Chris Doner, founder and CEO of Access Softek. “As the needs of clients continue to evolve, banks and credit unions need to support cryptocurrency to be considered a full-service financial institution. EasyCoin provides financial institutions with an affordable tool to attract clients and open a new revenue stream.”
The solution enables financial institutions to attract and retain young consumers, who have an increasing interest in digital currencies. According to Forbes, 86% percent U.S. adults have heard about cryptocurrency, with 31% percent of people ages 18 to 29 having owned at least one cryptocurrency.
