Ramp Network Brings Self Custodial Wallet and USDC Rewards to Europe

Ramp Network has officially expanded its full wallet service to its home market in the European Union. The company, which holds a license from the Central Bank of Ireland, is rolling out a self custodial app that allows users to store, buy, sell, and send major assets like Bitcoin and Ethereum. This launch marks a significant step for the firm as it brings its complete suite of financial tools to local users.

The new wallet focuses on user control by allowing people to hold their own private keys. It is secured by passkeys and designed to function like a standard fintech app, blending ease of use with the security of a self custodial model. By unifying these features in one place, the company aims to simplify how Europeans interact with digital assets.

Alongside the wallet launch, European users gain access to a rewards program that pays out in USDC. By completing specific missions within the app, such as buying or sending crypto, users can earn real stablecoins. While the wallet and rewards are now live, the company noted that cross chain swaps and other advanced features are still in development for the region.

Traders should note that while the exchange services are regulated by the Central Bank of Ireland, the self custodial wallet itself operates independently. This means the wallet does not fall under the same regulatory protections as the exchange services, so users are encouraged to stay informed about the risks associated with holding their own private keys.
