Fact Check
The evidence provided by two official press releases from Danske Bank, one in English and one in Danish, strongly supports the statement. Both sources are of the highest authority and are perfectly consistent with each other. They confirm that the bank is enabling customers to invest in products linked to Bitcoin and Ethereum through its digital banking and trading platforms. The service specifically involves exchange-traded products (ETPs), which track the value of the underlying cryptocurrencies. While this is a form of indirect investment rather than direct ownership of the coins, it clearly constitutes the launch of "trading services for Bitcoin and cryptocurrency." The statement is a correct and reasonable summary of the information presented in the primary sources.
