Our take

The decentralized nature of cryptocurrency holds many to believe that is it the future of finance, resulting in a huge increase in people interested in investing in Bitcoin. However, existing platforms for Bitcoin purchasing are limited in functionality, aimed towards casual investors, and often insecure.

River offers a high-security Bitcoin brokerage that is aimed towards sophisticated investment as opposed to short-term and beginner trades. The product provides long-term investment tools such as recurring orders, performance tracking, and interest-bearing accounts - services that are rarely provided by existing cryptocurrency brokerages.

Despite the mass of cryptocurrency platforms available to use for free, River has found a unique selling point by focusing on long-term, well-informed, and professional Bitcoin investment. The company has partnered with Bitcoin Magazine to help drive the further adoption of Bitcoin and continues to deliver new features such as zero-fee recurring purchases in order to remain at the forefront of the industry.
