The Future of Institutional Custody in Crypto: Trends, Challenges, and Opportunities
summary
Custody needs separation from trading and BitGo claims to have built the plumbing: an internal Go Network that does atomic DVP-style settlement and integrates with Bitstamp, Gate.io and INX; a custody stack based on two out of three multisig plus MPC for newer chains; rapid growth to $68 billion in custody and handling ~20% of Bitcoin transactions, backed by ~$250M client insurance (scaling toward $1B) and qualified custodians across US, EU and Asia with a Hana Bank Korea partnership.
