XRP Just Got Addded To Revolut App

Mobile banking app Revolut now lets users buy, sell and hold Ripple's XRP and bitcoin cash.

Following the firm's addition of litecoin and ether trading in December 2017, and bitcoin last July, the firm says in a blog post that "after months of debate and hard work," users are able to exchange any of 25 supported fiat currencies for its now five crypto offerings from today.

In the post, Revolut explained the reason for choosing XRP and BCH in particular, saying they were the "two most popular cryptocurrencies our community wanted." However, it remains open to adding more options in future if users make enough "noise."

Revolut is also allowing users to use the cryptocurrencies to top up their debit cards with crypto, saying, "We'll simply deduct the fiat value from your cryptocurrency using the real exchange rate the moment you pay with your Revolut card."
