COCHRANE, Alberta--(BUSINESS WIRE)--#Balance--Bow Valley Credit Union (BVCU), together with Balance and Bull Bitcoin, are thrilled to announce the launch of Canada’s first Bitcoin Gateway, a groundbreaking new way for Canadians to securely and seamlessly buy Bitcoin, directly through their favorite Alberta credit union.
As of today, with just a few clicks, you can buy Bitcoin directly from your Bow Valley Credit Union account. Your Bitcoin Gateway account is linked to your traditional BVCU account, enabling seamless transfers between fiat and Bitcoin, with little tech expertise or knowledge of blockchain required.
The Bitcoin Gateway is designed for simplicity, safety, and speed. Unlike other product offerings that deal in paper derivatives or pooled crypto products, the Bitcoin you purchase through the gateway is real, truly yours, securely stored, insured, and never leveraged. Custody is provided by Balance, a Canadian leader in securing digital assets and the oldest Bitcoin custodian in the country, operating since 2017.
Buying and selling Bitcoin has never been easier. Through our liquidity integration with Bull Bitcoin, users benefit from up-to-the-minute, competitive pricing, without the confusion or hassle of navigating complicated trading platforms and charts. Whether you're new to digital assets or already a veteran in the space, the Bitcoin Gateway makes owning Bitcoin simple, direct, and efficient.
According to Brett Oland, BVCU CEO, “No more technology anxiety. No more missed opportunities. The Bitcoin Gateway offers a safe, secure, and easy way to engage with one of the most important emerging asset classes of our time.”
