BitMEX is all set to acquire Bankhaus von der Heydt, a German Bank
BitMEX, a cryptocurrency exchange, has announced that it is finalizing its deal with a 268-year old German Bank, Bankhaus von der Heydt, and is all set to acquire it. The exchange wrote in a blog post about the turn of events which attracted the attention of many people in the crypto community.
BitMEX deal pending with BaFin
As per the announcement, the approval of the deal is currently pending with the German financial services regulatory authority, BaFin. Bankhaus von der Heydt, a bank based in Munich, Germany, has made big headlines as the current owner of the bank, Dietrich von Boetticher, has already signed a purchase agreement.However, BitMEX and the German Bank have agreed to remain silent on the issue and haven't revealed the prices that were involved in the deal. But, it is a fact that acquiring a 268-year old bank doesn't come cheap.
The announcement comes after the launch of the BitMEX Link in Europe, which is a brokerage platform. As per the CEO of the crypto exchange, Alexander Höptner, the firm aims to combine "the regulated digital assets expertise of Bankhaus von der Heydt with the crypto innovation and scale of BitMEX," and "create a regulated crypto products powerhouse in the heart of Europe."
Europe and crytocurrencies
The deal with the German Bank is the first time a cryptocurrency services provider like BitMEX is setting forth on such a venture in the European Union. On the other hand, Spain is all set to regulate crypto promotion in the country with new advertorial guidelines. The guidelines are aimed at social media influencers who are often promoting cryptocurrencies.The CFO of BitMEX, Stephan Lutz, commented on this new journey:
"Germany, as the largest economy in Europe, combines an innovative approach to digital assets with strong regulatory oversight and the rule of law – making it a prime market for BitMEX's expansion in Europe."

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I trust Cryptonary's calls?
Yes. We've consistently identified winners across multiple cycles. Bitcoin under $1,000, Ethereum under $70, Solana under $10, WIF from $0.003 to $5, PopCat from $0.004 to $2, SPX blasting past $1.70, and our latest pick has already 200X'd since June 2025. Everything is timestamped and public record.
Do I need to be an experienced trader or investor to benefit?
No. When we founded Cryptonary in 2017 the market was new to everyone. We intentionally created content that was easy to understand and actionable. That foundational principle is the crux of Cryptonary. Taking complex ideas and opportunities and presenting them in a way a 10 year old could understand.
What makes Cryptonary different from free crypto content on YouTube or Twitter?
Signal vs noise. We filter out 99.9% of garbage projects, provide data backed analysis, and have a proven track record of finding winners. Not to mention since Cryptonary's inception in 2017 we have never taken investment, sponsorship or partnership. Compare this to pretty much everyone else, no track record, and a long list of partnerships that cloud judgements.
Why is there no trial or refund policy?
We share highly sensitive, time-critical research. Once it's out, it can't be "returned." That's why membership is annual only. Crypto success takes time and commitment. If someone is not willing to invest 12 months into their future, there is no place for them at Cryptonary.
Do I get direct access to the Cryptonary team?
Yes. You will have 24/7 to the team that bought you BTC at $1,000, ETH at $70, and SOL at $10. Through our community chats, live Q&As, and member only channels, you can ask questions and interact directly with the team. Our team has over 50 years of combined experience which you can tap into every single day.
How often is content updated?
Daily. We provide real-time updates, weekly reports, emergency alerts, and live Q&As when the markets move fast. In crypto, the market moves fast, in Cryptonary, we move faster.
