BitGo, a global leader in digital asset solutions, has expanded its presence in the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region with the launch of BitGo Singapore, marking a significant milestone for the company. This move comes just months after BitGo secured a Major Payment Institution License from the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) in August 2024, reinforcing the company’s commitment to providing secure, regulated services in the region.
Comprehensive Digital Asset Solutions
BitGo Singapore aims to offer a wide range of digital asset solutions to clients across the region. The new entity is focused on providing comprehensive custody, trading, settlement, and token management services, designed to meet the growing demand for secure and compliant solutions. The company’s custody service supports over 1,100 digital assets, ensuring that clients have access to a wide range of top tokens available in the market.
One of BitGo Singapore's key differentiators is its robust security framework. The platform employs advanced multi-signature technology and is backed by insurance coverage of up to $250 million, offering clients peace of mind when it comes to the safety of their digital assets. This multi-layered approach ensures fast withdrawals, enhanced security, and unparalleled control for users.
Innovative Trading Platform and Liquidity Access
The trading platform provided by BitGo Singapore is designed to offer users direct access to deep liquidity, available around the clock. By integrating with cold storage solutions, the platform ensures that assets are secured while providing efficient trading capabilities. Users can access the platform through various channels, including API, user interface, or voice trading, offering flexible options for institutional and professional traders.
In partnership with leading liquidity providers, BitGo Singapore delivers competitive pricing and smooth trade execution, positioning the platform as a reliable trading hub for digital assets. The commitment to high liquidity and market efficiency further underscores BitGo's growing influence in the region.
Token Management Solutions for APAC Foundations and Protocols
BitGo Singapore also offers a state-of-the-art token management solution, leveraging the company's renowned security infrastructure. This service is designed to automate and ensure compliance with token vesting, unlocking, and other on-chain activities. It specifically targets foundations, protocols, and organizations across the APAC region that require secure, compliant, and insured solutions for managing their tokens.
With its tailored offerings, BitGo Singapore seeks to address the unique needs of institutions and digital asset organizations in the region. The company’s solutions are built to scale, ensuring that both emerging and established entities can benefit from BitGo’s expertise in managing large-scale, high-value digital assets.
Strengthening Regional Leadership in Digital Assets
BitGo’s launch in Singapore further strengthens its leadership position in the APAC region. The company has been active in the region since 2015, forging strategic partnerships with major institutions and playing a key role in the development of the digital asset industry. The launch of BitGo Singapore solidifies the company’s presence in one of the most important cryptocurrency markets in the world.
Singapore’s favorable regulatory environment for digital assets has made it a hub for global cryptocurrency firms, and BitGo’s inclusion as one of only 29 licensed firms by the MAS places it alongside prominent industry players like Coinbase, Circle, and Ripple. This licensing cements BitGo’s status as a trusted leader in the regulated digital asset space and demonstrates the company’s ongoing efforts to drive the adoption and utility of digital assets across the APAC region.
A Vision for the Future
The launch of BitGo Singapore is not only a strategic expansion but also a part of the company's long-term vision to foster greater utility and adoption of digital assets. By providing a comprehensive suite of services underpinned by industry-leading security, liquidity, and regulatory compliance, BitGo aims to empower its clients with the tools and resources necessary to thrive in the fast-evolving digital asset ecosystem.
As BitGo continues to drive innovation and expand its footprint in the APAC region, the company is poised to play a central role in shaping the future of digital assets in Singapore and beyond. With the regulatory support of the MAS and a commitment to secure, compliant services, BitGo Singapore is well-positioned to lead the next wave of growth in the cryptocurrency space.
