Federated Digital Asset Custody
Secure storage of Bitcoin and stablecoins across multiple jurisdictions. No single point of failure. Threshold cryptography ensures no single party can access client funds alone.
How It Works
Deposit
Clients deposit Bitcoin or stablecoins through KYC-verified channels into the federation.
Secure
Assets are distributed across 10 independent guardians using threshold cryptography. No single guardian holds a complete key.
Transfer
Authorized transfers between verified accounts are processed when 7 of 10 guardians approve.
Withdraw
Clients withdraw funds through verified channels with a complete audit trail for every transaction.
Built for Institutions
No Single Point of Failure
Assets distributed across independent guardians in multiple jurisdictions. If one fails, the system continues.
Threshold Cryptography
7 of 10 guardians must approve any transaction. No single party can access or move client funds alone.
Proof of Reserves
Cryptographic verification that client assets are fully backed — verifiable anytime without exposing individual balances.
Multi-Jurisdictional
Guardians operate across Switzerland, Malta, Iceland, and other jurisdictions. No single government can seize assets.
API-First Integration
RESTful API for licensed operators to integrate custody services into their platforms programmatically.
Full Compliance
KYC/AML at all entry and exit points. Transaction monitoring, sanctions screening, and complete audit trails.
