Blockbank has purchased a stake in Spire bank to provide international Crypto banking services. Spire Bank will be instrumental in facilitating a wide variety of international Crytpto banking activity in association with Blockbank — to present the world’s first fully licensed crypto bank with low-cost funding availability.

Spire Bank, Headquartered in Nairobi top commercial banking entity, fully licensed by the Central Bank of Kenya is valued at having total asset worth of around 180million USD with 350,000 existing customers. Spire Bank will provide a solid foundation for Blockbank’s first step into supplying secured and affordable financing options for emerging economies.

This ground breaking partnership will initiate integration of commercial banking services into crypto entities, businesses, and governments globally – creating dynamic access to more affordable funding opportunities to accelerate economic growth.

The strategic FinTech partnership with Spire Bank will see the incubation of a DDMS smart contract blockchain system – the backbone of Blockbank’s platform – enabling Blockbank to provide lower cost funding solutions via Spire Banks’ infrastructure. With the capacity to provide a plethora of international banking services, Spire Bank is predicted to be a real asset to the Blockbank assembly, driving the expansion of global banking capabilities for both parties.

The collaboration of these two organizations will be a major breakthrough in fostering the development of low-cost funding options for governments and commercial entities worldwide – particularly in developing economies without current access to these services. In many developing countries, borrowing is still very expensive; with rates sometimes hitting 20%. In some countries borrowing is so expensive, the borrower has to pay enough money to pay the whole loan in 5 years just in interest payments.
