Revolut Rockets to a $75B Valuation as Heavyweights Double Down on Its Crypto Ambitions

Revolut’s $75 billion valuation shows how its crypto-heavy expansion has turned the fintech into one of the world’s most valuable private companies, even as it ramps up global ambitions at breakneck speed.

Revolut (PC:RVOLU) just hit a milestone that cements its place among the world’s most valuable fintechs. A new secondary share sale pushed the company to a $75 billion valuation, with major players like Coatue, Greenoaks, Dragoneer, Fidelity (FIS), a16z, Franklin Templeton (BEN), and Nvidia’s (NVDA) venture arm NVentures all taking part. For a company that started as a travel card, the leap is staggering and it comes at a moment where Revolut is leaning harder than ever into crypto.

The deal wasn’t about raising new capital but about giving employees liquidity, marking the fifth time staff have been able to cash out shares. Still, the caliber of investors crowding in indicates that Revolut is no longer seen as a risky fintech flyer. It’s becoming a strategic anchor in both global banking and digital assets.

Revolut Justifies Its $75B Valuation with Breakout Financial Performance

The valuation didn’t appear out of thin air. Revolut posted massive results for 2024, reporting $4 billion in revenue, a surge of more than 70% from the prior year. Pre-tax profits exploded to $1.4 billion, a 149% jump that puts Revolut in a profitability class most fintechs still dream about.

This firepower is funding a global push that’s starting to look like a land-grab. Revolut secured banking licenses in Mexico and Colombia this year, and launches in India and new Latin American markets are already in motion. The expansion adds to a footprint that now spans 65 million users worldwide, showing a company operating at the scale of a traditional bank while still moving with the speed and instincts of a tech firm.

Revolut Deepens Its Crypto Footprint as Regulation Clears the Path

The crypto side of the business is no longer a side hustle, it’s a core pillar. Revolut’s recent partnership with Polygon Labs opened the door for UK and EEA users to send USDC, USDT, and POL through Polygon rails directly inside the app, giving everyday customers access to low-cost blockchain remittances.

Its regulatory win came just as quickly. The company secured a full MiCA license in Cyprus, giving it the right to offer crypto services across the entire European Economic Area. Revolut followed by launching its revamped Crypto 2.0 platform, which now supports over 280 tokens, offers zero-fee staking, and lets users swap stablecoins without paying a cent. It’s an aggressive move into territory most banks still won’t touch.
