August 19, 2025 – Vienna, Austria
Bitpanda, Europe’s leading crypto innovator, has launched the Bitpanda DeFi Wallet, the next step in its Web 3.0 expansion.
The Bitpanda DeFi Wallet is the second product in the Bitpanda Web 3.0 suite, designed to bring real utility to the on-chain world. Built to be simple enough for beginners and powerful enough for experienced users. The wallet combines on-chain flexibility with Bitpanda’s trusted security standards. Users can now trade, earn and interact with DeFi across multiple chains–without ever leaving the app. The wallet is designed to give users simple, secure and seamless access to the world of DeFi (decentralized finance), whether they’re exploring Web 3.0 for the first time or are already deeply involved in the on-chain community. Bitpanda has already helped millions of Europeans take control of their financial future and now wants to offer the same secure and intuitive access to Web 3.0. Most importantly, Bitpanda’s Web 3.0 design ethos is centered around shaping Web 3.0 to meet users where they are today instead of pushing them to adapt to complex new technologies that offer no clear benefits. The Bitpanda DeFi Wallet provides everything users need to trade, earn and manage assets on-chain across major blockchain networks, all from a single, intuitive app. At launch, the wallet will support over 5,000 tokens, and multiple chains including Ethereum, Solana, Polygon, BNB Chain, Avalanche, Optimism, Base and Arbitrum.
Lukas Enzersdorfer-Konrad, co-CEO of Bitpanda, said,
“Bitpanda’s mission is to help investors take control and fast-track their financial freedom.
“That means giving our users the tools they need to manage their investments–on- and off-chain.
“Sadly, while Web 3.0 was meant to empower people, it has too often ended up excluding them.
“We’re changing that today.”
Unlike traditional wallets, the Bitpanda DeFi Wallet is fully integrated into the existing Bitpanda ecosystem. Users can move assets between their Bitpanda account and their DeFi Wallet in just a few taps–without manual address inputs and the risk of costly mistakes. The optional Bitpanda backup feature removes the need to manage seed phrases manually. Users retain full control with the option to recover their wallet securely.
Key features at launch
- Access to DeFi across eight major chains with more coming soon
- Over 5,000 tokens available for swap with smart routing for best pricing
- Self-custodial wallet with optional Bitpanda backup for secure recovery
- Curated DeFi yield pools, reviewed by Bitpanda for transparency, to offer a balance between potential returns and risk transparency
- Sponsored gas fees on select layer-two networks
- One-click swaps, no manual address inputs
- Seamless integration with Bitpanda accounts
In the coming weeks, Bitpanda will launch its Web 3.0-native loyalty program, powered by the Vision (VSN) token. Users will be able to earn points by completing simple on-chain quests–such as trading or earning–which will determine their position on a leaderboard. A user’s rank will directly influence their rewards. The Vision token will serve as a multiplier–the more VSN users stake, the more points they’ll receive for each action. Designed to reward meaningful engagement, the program will offer not just airdrops but also exclusive perks and early access to future Bitpanda products.
Making Web 3.0 work for everyone
The launch of the Bitpanda Web 3.0 wallet marks a significant step in Bitpanda’s long-term strategy to give investors the tools they need to fast-track their financial freedom. While others have built for developers and insiders, Bitpanda is building for the next 10 million users–the users who demand clarity, compliance and control. Bitpanda Web 3.0 is not about chasing hype. It’s about building the infrastructure for real, usable, trusted digital ownership–starting with a wallet that actually makes sense.
