Crypto startup Venga from Barcelona has launched the first mobile app that supports both Catalan and Spanish languages. This significant event opens up new opportunities for the Catalan crypto community.
Revolution in Crypto Apps for Catalan Users
Venga has become the first crypto app to provide full support for the Catalan language. Co-founder and CEO Michael Stroev stated that launching in both languages will open the doors to Web3 for millions. Quote: 'Since I moved to Barcelona in 2020, it has been my dream to build a startup that truly feels local, with a product tailored for Catalan speakers.'
Hyperlocalization Strategy and Its Significance
Historically, the Catalan language has been overlooked by many crypto applications, despite high user interest. Approximately one in five Catalans interacts with cryptocurrencies. Venga's Chief Technology Officer Raul Arribas adds, 'I am very proud to finally provide a top crypto app in our language.' The Venga team translated the app in-house, avoiding outsourced translators.
The Future of Venga and Expansion Plans
Venga plans to extend its reach beyond the Catalan audience by launching in Spanish as well. The team aims to explore partnerships with local organizations to create educational content and expand the community. The app is now available on both iOS and Android, providing users with local functionality and live support. Venga seeks to make working with cryptocurrencies easy and accessible.
Venga's launch in Catalan and Spanish represents an important step towards a more inclusive crypto environment in Spain, enabling millions of users to engage with cryptocurrencies in their native language.
