May proved to be a highly dynamic month for digital wealth, kicking off with strong spot-driven momentum that pushed Bitcoin above $81,300 before it consolidated amid broader macro market conditions. However, early June saw a large pullback as the price headed towards $60,000.
This month, we are thrilled to announce the latest evolution of the Xapo Referral Programme into a streamlined way for you and your inner circle to earn more Bitcoin. Now, you and your friend will each receive a $500 USD lump-sum reward with no limit on how many people you can refer!
We've also added nine powerful new Strive ETFs, space economy stocks, and global energy assets to your trading tab to give you more ways to diversify beyond Bitcoin. Dive into the full updates, our June event schedules, and our curated market insights below.
Xapo Bank Product Offering Update:
Want $500 for referring a friend?
We have launched a new Global Member Referral Programme. Both you and your referred friend will receive $500 after a standard 33-day validation period. For most of the jurisdictions, this referral bonus will be paid in Bitcoin, whilst our UK-based members will receive $500 directly in USD. More ETFs and Assets
You asked, we listened. To help you further diversify your portfolio, we have expanded our trading platform with a brand-new selection of highly requested assets:
