Why the Agoric-BitGo Relationship Matters

BitGo is excited to work with Agoric, the leader in JavaScript smart contracts, to create secure custodial support for BLD. This collaboration will enable institutions to custody their BLD on BitGo’s platform using hot wallets and Qualified Custody wallets. BitGo clients will also be able to stake BLD tokens and earn rewards through their BitGo wallets.

“BitGo is proud to become the first qualified custodian to provide services to the Agoric ecosystem, including holders of the BLD, who have been searching for a secure way to store and stake their assets,” says Chen Fang, BitGo COO. “We are excited to deliver them safe and secure custody and staking services for their BLD tokens and other valuable assets.”

Dean Tribble, CEO of Agoric OpCo, sees the BitGo partnership as proof of the community’s commitment to widening the ecosystem, as well as creating a more diverse community of users.

“At Agoric, we’ve created a JavaScript smart contract platform to make blockchain solutions practical for everyday problems. That requires providing a safe environment for both developers and institutions. By integrating the BLD token with BitGo’s institutional-grade security, we’re providing both groups a safer path to web3.”.”

BitGo and Agoric are working together to better navigate the complexities of effectively supporting coins on an institutional level. By offering Qualified Custody and Staking support for BLD, BitGo provides BLD holders secure, enterprise-grade solutions ensuring their digital assets are protected by a regulated custodian.
