WBTC, the largest value store in the DeFi world, enters a new era with the collaboration of BitGo and BiT Global. This partnership will enhance WBTC’s security and custody operations by spreading them across multiple jurisdictions, further strengthening the security principles that form the foundation of Bitcoin. This step will provide a broader security network for WBTC’s global users and serve as a significant building block for the future of the DeFi ecosystem.
Multi-Jurisdiction Strategy for Security
BitGo and BiT Global plan to enhance WBTC’s security by distributing custody operations from the United States to different jurisdictions such as Hong Kong and Singapore. This new structure will offer a more secure service to WBTC’s global user base while minimizing regional risks. This transition process will be completed within 60 days, and users will experience no change in service quality during this period.
The cold wallet technology BitGo has used to secure Bitcoin since 2019 will remain at the forefront as WBTC’s future is built. The new partnership will advance this technology further by distributing keys across multiple jurisdictions. This will ensure global security and increase users’ trust in WBTC.
WBTC is Heavily Used in Asia
Asia is the region where WBTC is most intensively used. BitGo’s strengthened presence in countries like Korea and Singapore will gain even more importance with this partnership. The strategic collaboration with BiT Global will enhance the security of WBTC users in Asia and contribute to the development of the cryptocurrency ecosystem in the region.
This partnership not only enhances security but also paves the way for WBTC’s future growth. BitGo CEO Mike Belshe stated that this service spread across multiple jurisdictions would strengthen WBTC’s position in the Asian market and significantly contribute to the global Blockchain ecosystem.
