-
-
Compliant wallet architecture
Comply with local regulations requiring specific custody locations while continuing to rely on BitGo's leading technology and procedures.
-
Flexible configurations
Access wallets via BitGo's streamlined app or via API to customize your self-custody setup with hot and cold wallets for maximum operational efficiency.
Key Management
Hot Wallets
With self-custody hot wallets, you maintain the Client Key and the Backup Key, while BitGo keeps the Platform Key.
To start a transaction, utilize your User Key. BitGo will only countersign if the transaction meets the policies you've set.
Key Management
Cold Wallets
With self-custody cold wallets, BitGo customers control two of the three keys, but do so in an offline environment instead of online.
Customers initiate and half-sign transactions offline, then upload them to BitGo for countersigning - without the user key ever being exposed.
