[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]DBS Bank Ltd<\/a> is looking to offer support for Bitcoin as it\u00a0looks to capitalize on the growing demand for cryptocurrency investments among consumers.<\/p>\n

Singapore’s biggest banking corporation unveiled a flagship cryptocurrency trading service, dubbed as DBS Digital Exchange, in a “soft-launch.” It later removed the webpage from public view, leaving the Bitcoin community guessing about the correct timeframe of the launch.

Based on the information available on the original page, the platform primarily intends to assist SMEs and larger corporations in raising capital via the creation and sale of digitized securities and assets.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, it brings forth “trading services” that allow users to exchange fiat currencies for top cryptocurrencies: Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash, Ether, and XRP.<\/p>\n

“Unlike most digital exchanges today, DBS Digital Exchange does not hold any digital assets,” the platform’s official portal reads. “Instead, all digital assets are kept at DBS Bank, which is globally recognized for its custodial services.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
