The services are intended for institutional investment managers with private funds in the U.S. or Cayman Islands who would like a safekeeping solution for bitcoin – with additional coin support coming soon.

“NYDIG, a leading technology and financial services company dedicated to Bitcoin, is the first crypto sub-custodian announced in the bank’s network of providers,” it adds. New York Digital Investment Group (NYDIG) is the bitcoin investment arm of Stone Ridge Asset Management.

Gunjan Kedia, vice chair of U.S. Bank Wealth Management and Investment Services, прокомментировал:

За последние несколько лет интерес инвесторов к криптовалюте и спрос со стороны клиентов наших фондов, оказывающих услуги, сильно выросли.. Our fund and institutional custody clients have accelerated their plans to offer cryptocurrency and, в ответ, we made it a priority to accelerate our ability to offer custody services.

U.S. Bank first established its Blockchain and Cryptocurrency Practice in 2015, when the price of bitcoin was less than $200. Цена BTC is hovering around $50K at the time of writing.

The bank announced the launch of three cryptocurrency offerings in April to meet the “growing needs of clients.” The first was the custody service which is now live. The second was an investment in Securrency, a developer of institutional-grade blockchain-based financial and regulatory technology. The third was that U.S. Bank had been selected to administer NYDIG’s ETF bitcoin fund this year, pending regulatory approvals.
