Revolut Reports No Direct Contact Over Separate Crypto Ransom Demands

Revolut said it has not received direct contact from parties publicly demanding cryptocurrency payments in connection with separate breach claims, Cointelegraph reported on Sept. 17, 2026. The competing claimants reportedly sought $3 million in Monero (XMR) and 10,000 Bitcoin (BTC), respectively. The company’s statement indicates that the demands were made publicly rather than through direct communication with Revolut. No further details about the claims or the alleged incidents were provided in the supplied report. The situation links two major crypto assets—Bitcoin and Monero—to a dispute involving ransom demands, but the available information does not establish whether any payment was made or whether the claims were verified. Investors tracking BTC and XMR may be watching for additional statements from Revolut or the parties making the demands.
