Bow Valley Credit Union Enters the Bitcoin Space
Bow Valley Credit Union has officially launched a Bitcoin custody product, marking a big step forward for mainstream Bitcoin adoption in Alberta.
After chatting with Brett at the Calgary Bitcoin Market, it’s clear this isn’t just a token gesture — it’s a solid offering that bridges the gap between traditional finance and Bitcoin.
While it’s a custodial service (not self-custody), it’s still a meaningful step in the right direction. Having a traditional, regulated financial institution backing Bitcoin services adds a level of trust and familiarity that could help more everyday Canadians feel comfortable taking their first step into Bitcoin.
For anyone looking to explore Bitcoin but hesitant about self-custody right away, this might be the perfect on-ramp.
