Now, folks, settle in and grab your popcorn, ’cause the fine city slickers at Barclays Bank—yes, them same Barclays what’s fancier than a cat in Sunday clothes—reckon they’ve had their fill of all this “cryptocurrency” ruckus. Seems as though beginning on the 27th of June, the bigwigs are throwin’ a lock on any crypto dealin’ done with their Barclaycards. The reason? Well, they claim it’s so folks don’t end up livin’ in a barrel under London Bridge, courtesy of volatile digital coins.
Someone took to the bank’s online help desk and asked, straight out, “Say now, can I buy one of them newfangled cryptocurrencies with my Barclaycard?” To which the bank gave a reply colder than a January pond: “Nope, not a chance. Go fish.”

Little more from Barclays: “Come 27 June 2025, crypto charges on your trusty Barclaycard will be met with the ol’ iron gate. Apparently, there’s just too much risk in buying invisible coins, and watching grown folks gamble away their money gives the boardroom the vapors.”
Meanwhile, the U.K. government’s busy trying to make crypto less wild west, adding rules and whatnot, but Barclays? They’re sittin’ this round out. Conservative as a preacher at a dance.
Irony of ironies—just about every other bank under the sun is racing to get into crypto, and here’s Barclays giving it the boot like it’s last week’s fish. If you had “Barclays blows a gasket over Bitcoin” on your bingo card, well, step right up and collect your prize. 🤠💸
