Virtune and BitGo team up to bolster secure digital asset ETPs in Europe
Virtune has partnered with BitGo to strengthen the custody and compliance framework of its European exchange-traded product (ETP) programme. The collaboration aims to meet rising institutional demand for secure digital asset infrastructure. BitGo will now serve as an additional custodian for Virtune’s regulated investment products. BitGo’s role includes providing custody services for Virtune’s Stablecoin Index ETP. The firm’s infrastructure features cold storage solutions and up to $250 million in insurance coverage. These measures are designed to reduce operational and counterparty risks for investors.
Virtune’s ETP structures already align with European regulatory standards, ensuring oversight at both the custody and product levels. The programme also includes a collateral agent, adding an extra layer of legal protection. BitGo’s involvement is expected to improve operational resilience as Virtune expands across Europe.
The partnership comes as regulated custody and institutional-grade infrastructure become increasingly important for digital asset investment products. BitGo, with over a decade of experience, operates through its German entity, which holds a MiCA licence from BaFin. This authorisation allows it to offer crypto-asset custody and administration within the European market. The collaboration between Virtune and BitGo reflects the growing need for secure, compliant infrastructure in digital asset ETPs. By integrating BitGo’s custody solutions, Virtune can now broaden the range of assets within its regulated products. The move is set to support the issuer’s continued expansion in European markets.
