Cryptocurrency is stepping in where traditional banking has failed its customers for years. Today, banks give very little interest, dropping as low as 0% in 2008 and rarely topping 1%.

This partnership represents the first of many wallets to integrate Celsius’ services in 2019. Celsius’ team is planning on ensuring that all crypto holders can earn interest on their assets through a series of additional wallet collaborations. By providing interest-earning opportunities through Celsius, up-and-coming wallets can gain a competitive advantage against exchanges, cold storage, and industry incumbents.
