On Wednesday, the UK Chancellor, Rishi Sunak, will reveal the government’s tax and spending plans in the 2021 Budget. Glint predicts he will focus on support for businesses and individuals in the aftermath of COVID 19.
Back in March 2020, Revolut introduced its customers to a brand-new service, letting them invest their money into two particular commodities – Silver and Gold.

With it being easier to send crypto over precious metals, the challenger bank might be popularizing the idea that crypto is more user-friendly.
For instance in August, Gold shot up above 2000 USD per ounce (an all-time high), but then it dropped on the news of the Cure for Covid. Either way Gold is up from the 1200 USD per ounce it was worth in 2018 and it continues to be the safe haven currency of choice for many people.
