Revolut Joins Pyth Network as Data Publisher
🏦 Banking Giant Goes Web3
Revolut, serving 45M users across 200 countries, has joined Pyth Network as a data publisher. The digital banking giant will provide real-time price feeds to enhance DeFi infrastructure.
Key implications:
- First major fintech bringing banking data directly on-chain
- Processes millions of daily transactions across 200+ countries
- Strengthens DeFi reliability through institutional-grade price data
This partnership represents a shift where regulated institutions actively contribute to on-chain transparency rather than DeFi seeking access to banking data. The collaboration aims to build better financial infrastructure from the ground up.
