Revolut Confirms Bitcoin Price Glitch After App Briefly Shows BTC Near Zero

Revolut users worldwide saw Bitcoin (BTC) briefly displayed at $0.02 on Friday after a chart glitch in the fintech app, before the price snapped back within seconds.

The display problem surfaced through the app’s chart and push notifications, sparking widespread confusion across X (Twitter) and Reddit. Bitcoin continued trading above $80,000 on every major exchange during the incident.

What Happened on the Revolut App

Screenshots circulating on social media showed Bitcoin candles dropping to as low as $0.019916 on Revolut’s in-app chart, with similar anomalies appearing for Solana (SOL), XRP, and several other tokens.

“For 3 seconds, I thought I was about to buy the entire supply and become Satoshi’s final boss. Then I remembered: it’s probably just a Revolut chart glitch. Crypto never sleeps. Neither do bugs,” one user remarked.

Some users received push alerts claiming BTC had hit a 52-week low. The disruption lasted only a few seconds for most affected accounts.

CoinGecko and CoinMarketCap showed no matching price action on tracked exchanges, indicating the issue was confined to Revolut’s display layer rather than any underlying market move.

Revolut Support said the company was experiencing technical issues affecting some crypto functionalities, and that engineers were actively investigating the root cause.

The fintech, which holds a MiCA license through Cyprus and serves more than 68 million customers across 40 markets, has not detailed what triggered the faulty data feed.

The flash on screens arrived during a softer trading day for Bitcoin, which almost slipped below $80,000 after a modest correction that triggered almost $300 million in futures liquidations.

No user reports have confirmed any orders filling at the displayed glitch price.

Affected European and global users say balances and pending orders went unaffected, though the episode renewed concerns about how centralized apps handle third-party price feeds during volatile sessions.

Revolut has continued expanding its crypto footprint, including stablecoin settlement on Polygon, even after delisting some altcoins last year.
