Do you have Bitcoin on another exchange or in your own wallet — and do you finally want to store it with a secure, regulated provider? Or do you want to sell Bitcoin easily without having to fight through complicated trading platforms?
From now on, you can Deposit Bitcoin with 21bitcoin — from any wallet and any regulated exchange — and keep or sell there.
This makes 21bitcoin what our vision was from the start: All services related to Bitcoin — in one app. Buy, sell, deposit, store, send.
In this article, we'll explain to you what the new feature can do and how you can deposit and/or sell Bitcoin in just a few steps.
Bitcoin Deposits
And it was important to us, the feature so uncluttered, to design as intuitively and effectively as possible. And now the time has come: 21bitcoin is no longer “just” a buying app — but a full-fledged Bitcoin Wealth platform Where you can store your Bitcoin assets.
Whether you want to transfer your Bitcoin from Bitpanda, Coinbase, Kraken or a hardware wallet such as BitBox, Ledger or Trezor to us: From now on, it's quick, easy and secure.
Here's how it works:
- Every 21bitcoin customer receives a unique bitcoin deposit address in the app.
- You copy this address and paste it into your previous exchange or wallet as the recipient address.
- After blockchain confirmation, your Bitcoin will be credited — usually within a few minutes to an hour.
This works both from exchanges (e.g. Kraken, Bitpanda, Coinbase) as well as from own wallets (such as BlueWallet, Ledger, Trezor, BitBox).

Why 21bitcoin is the right Choice
There are many platforms that offer Bitcoin services. But 21bitcoin differs in key ways:
Regulated and licensed
21bitcoin is a provider of crypto value services in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2023/1114 (MiCAR) from the Austrian Financial Market Authority (FMA) approved. Your euro balance is paid at Volksbank Raiffeisenbank Bayern Mitte custodial — a regulated German bank.
Insured Custody — or Self-Custody
One of the biggest advantages of 21bitcoin: You have the free choice.
- Custodial: BitGo secures your Bitcoin in cold storage, protected by an insurance policy of $250 million
- Non-custodial: With the Car wallet transfer Do you automatically send your Bitcoin to your own hardware wallet — for just around €1 per transaction (1,000 sats), regardless of current network charges.
This combination of Custodial and non-custodial in one app is unique. You decide how you want to store your Bitcoin — flexibly and at any time.
