Do you trust your bank? 62% of those asked in our research weren’t sure if banks had their best interests at heart, but 76% of UK adults use online banking - that’s a huge swathe of people using services they don’t really trust. Bitstocks is here to provide an alternative.

We’re developing an app-based banking experience; which will go on to include savings & loans - built entirely on the blockchain. Why use blockchain? Proof of solvency at the touch of a button, the ability to transact in micropayments & online payments with the privacy of cash - we want to bring you the benefits of Bitcoin in a Personal Account format that’s simple & accessible.

Established 2014 as a Bitcoin investment house, Bitstocks has evolved into a fintech on a mission to Educate - through our media, Empower - through our products & Evolve - through our research.

Our product, Gravity, currently offers BSV, BTC, GBP & EUR pairings, with investment accounts for customers to buy, sell & store Bitcoin. This custom-built system is our foundation - it’s the infrastructure to support our concept for a transparent banking system.

Your investment will help us scale & develop the next phase of Gravity, including our distinctive solvency & transparency feature, a stablecoin to enable tokenised global micropayments & Personal Accounts, debit cards, savings & loans.

Join us in creating a consciously connected future!
