What Happened

Revolut customers trying to check their crypto and stock investments on Tuesday morning found their portfolio balances missing. Several users told BeInCrypto that their investment screens had gone blank as a major outage hit the financial platform.

For crypto investors, the timing of such failures is critical. Bitcoin and other digital assets trade around the clock. Prices can change sharply while customers struggle to see their holdings or execute trades.

Revolut Investors Report Missing Balances and Trading Failures

In a Portuguese Reddit discussion, one investor reported that their crypto and ETF holdings were visible, but attempting transactions triggered errors.

The full scale of the trading disruption remains unclear. Revolut has not confirmed how many investors are unable to execute orders.

There is no evidence of any failure on Bitcoin, Ethereum or other blockchain networks. The incident exposes how investors’ access to crypto still depends on centralized financial platforms and their technology providers.

Details

The problems extend beyond the customers who spoke to BeInCrypto.

The disruption appears linked to a major Google Cloud outage in London, which began at 7:08 a.m. Lisbon time.

Google reported widespread service errors and intermittent network failures in its European infrastructure.

A person familiar with the situation told Reuters that Revolut’s problems were connected to the cloud outage.

Meanwhile, Revolut customers have also reported failed card payments, inaccessible bank accounts and disrupted transfers across Europe.

Revolut says customers’ funds and data remain safe. Its engineers are working to restore services, but no recovery time has been confirmed.
