Revolut Fixes Crypto Price Glitch After Third-Party Feed Error

The glitch shows the risk of relying on outside price data on retail apps.

Overview

  • Revolut’s app briefly showed Bitcoin at $0.02 and mispriced Ethereum, Solana, XRP, and some stablecoins before normal quotes returned.
  • The company says an unnamed third-party pricing feed failed and that it is reviewing what went wrong.
  • Revolut reports that safeguards blocked trades at the wrong prices and that customer balances were unaffected.
  • Data on CoinMarketCap, CoinGecko, and major exchanges showed no matching move, confirming the issue was confined to Revolut’s displays.
  • The episode highlights how neobanks that pull crypto prices from outside providers can mislead users during a bad data tick, so checking a second source can head off panic.
