Neobanks like Revolut came along, repainted it, added a touchscreen dashboard, and called it a revolution. The engine underneath \u2013 fractional reserves, institutional custody, correspondent banking rails \u2013 is identical to what your grandparents used.<\/p>\n<p>When you hold money or crypto on Revolut, you don\u2019t own it the way you own cash in your pocket. You own a claim against Revolut.<\/p>\n<p>If Revolut freezes your account, gets hacked, or goes insolvent, as the earlier crypto-friendly neobank Nuri did, your assets are caught in someone else\u2019s balance sheet. This custodial model is the default for virtually every fintech app on the market today.<\/p>\n<p>Lazet\u2019s case is that crypto banking built on these same rails isn\u2019t really crypto banking at all. It\u2019s legacy banking with a Bitcoin price ticker bolted on the side.<\/p>\n<p><strong>DISCOVER:\u00a0<a class=\"general-link\" href=\"https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/cryptocurrency\/best-meme-coin-icos\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\">Best Meme Coin ICOs to Invest in 2026<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2>What Anarchistic Neobanks Actually Mean and Why Bitcoin Makes It Possible<\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\">\n<div class=\"chart crypto-chart-instance\" id=\"crypto_chart_6a2d89e1b0b30\" data-coin-id=\"bitcoin\">\n<div class=\"chart__header\">\n<div class=\"chart__info\">\n<div class=\"chart__info-icon\">\n\t\t\t\t<img id=\"crypto_chart_6a2d89e1b0b30-chart__info-icon-img\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"chart__info-name\" id=\"crypto_chart_6a2d89e1b0b30-chart__info-name\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"chart__info-symbol\" id=\"crypto_chart_6a2d89e1b0b30-chart__info-symbol\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"chart__info-current\">\n<div class=\"chart__info-price\" id=\"crypto_chart_6a2d89e1b0b30-chart__info-price\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"chart__info-change\" id=\"crypto_chart_6a2d89e1b0b30-chart__info-change\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"chart__info-extra\">\n<div class=\"chart__info-label\">Market Cap<\/div>\n<div class=\"chart__info-marketcap\" id=\"crypto_chart_6a2d89e1b0b30-chart__info-marketcap\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"chart__controls\">\n<div class=\"chart__controls-group\">\n\t\t\t\t<button class=\"chart__button chart__button--24h\" id=\"crypto_chart_6a2d89e1b0b30-btn-24h\">24h<\/button><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t<button class=\"chart__button chart__button--7d\" id=\"crypto_chart_6a2d89e1b0b30-btn-7d\">7d<\/button><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t<button class=\"chart__button chart__button--30d\" id=\"crypto_chart_6a2d89e1b0b30-btn-30d\">30d<\/button><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t<button class=\"chart__button chart__button--1y\" id=\"crypto_chart_6a2d89e1b0b30-btn-1y\">1y<\/button><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t<button class=\"chart__button chart__button--all-time\" id=\"crypto_chart_6a2d89e1b0b30-btn-all-time\">All Time<\/button>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"chart__container\">\n\t\t<canvas class=\"chart__canvas\" id=\"crypto_chart_6a2d89e1b0b30-cryptoChart\"><\/canvas>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>The term \u2018anarchistic\u2019 is intentionally provocative and refers to ownership, not lawlessness. Blockrise is fully regulated under the EU\u2019s MiCAR framework and is registered with the Dutch central bank as an asset manager.<\/p>\n<p>Lazet\u2019s vision emphasizes a Bitcoin bank where users hold their own keys in segregated, on-chain wallets with a multisig structure; clients maintain one key while Blockrise holds another for management purposes. This aligns with Bitcoin\u2019s principle: not your keys, not your coins.<\/p>\n<p>Blockrise offers services such as payments and asset management, and allows users to withdraw their Bitcoin at any time. It earns from access and execution rather than holding clients\u2019 assets.<\/p>\n<p>Lazet highlights Bitcoin-backed loans as a key priority, enabling users to borrow against their BTC without selling, and they are collaborating with lending partner Arkade to develop these products.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bs_3009e3ec.jeweltype.care\/?referrer=https%3A%2F%2F99bitcoins.com%2Fnews%2Fpresales%2Fxlm-price-breakout-analysis%2F&amp;transfer=1\" class=\"sc-button sc-button-green sc-button-medium\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"><span>EXCLUSIVE: Earn $10 USDC Via Binance Sign-Up<\/span><\/a>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Blockrise Is Already Walking the Walk: Europe\u2019s First bunq BaaS Deal<\/h2>\n<p>The bunq partnership is where the thesis meets the product.
