Overview
Denmark’s largest lender is shifting from caution to limited, regulated crypto exposure: Danske Bank says it will let self-directed clients access Bitcoin and Ether exchange-traded products (ETPs), framing the move as a response to rising customer demand and clearer EU rules. The change is positioned as access via traditional banking channels rather than direct crypto trading or advisory services.
