Bitget expands custody models for institutional clients

  • —About 50% of institutions plan to raise crypto exposure in 2026 citing infrastructure
  • —61% of investment firms already use multiple custodians
  • —55% of traditional hedge funds held digital assets in 2025, up from 47% a year earlier
  • —Bitget integrates with Copper ClearLoop, Fireblocks Off Exchange, Cactus Custody Oasis and OSL MirrorEX
Why it matters: Separating custodian from exchange cuts single-venue risk but shifts it to custodians and settlement cycles.
