BitGo announced the launch of a modular operating platform for banks that will enable faster deployment of digital asset services. The solution combines tools for crypto custody, trading, staking, stablecoin issuance, and treasury management within a single infrastructure.
BitGo Holdings introduced a new digital asset operating model designed for banks and other financial institutions. The solution was developed with regulatory compliance, risk management, governance, and internal controls in mind, aiming to simplify the rollout of crypto services for traditional financial market participants.
According to the press release, banks are seeing growing demand for digital assets from both retail and corporate clients. At the same time, many institutions lack the infrastructure and control mechanisms needed to work with cryptocurrencies securely. BitGo aims to bridge this gap with a ready-made suite of solutions that can be implemented gradually.
The new modular system includes:
- digital asset custody infrastructure and crypto wallet management;
- trading and settlement services;
- staking solutions;
- tools for issuing and using stablecoins;
- corporate liquidity management services;
- private banking and wealth management solutions;
- APIs and licensed infrastructure for integration into banking systems.
According to Jody Mettler, BitGo COO and President of BitGo Bank & Trust, banks became increasingly focused on governance and control when working with digital assets. The new model is designed to help financial institutions introduce crypto services without losing control over the customer experience and internal operations.
The company emphasized that the solution isn’t based on a one-size-fits-all approach. Banks will be able to adopt only the features they need and scale their use of digital assets as business readiness and market demand evolve.
BitGo is already working with several financial institutions, including Erebor Bank, Banco de Crédito del Perú, Banco de Crédito de Bolivia S.A., TowerBank, and InvestiFi, which partners with a network of banks and credit unions. Earlier in 2026, BitGo Bank & Trust also served as the issuer and primary custodian of the FYUSD stablecoin for New Frontier Labs and was selected as the technology partner for the issuance and distribution of the SoFiUSD stablecoin by SoFi Bank.
