Bringing the most secure, comprehensive and scalable suite of digital asset solutions for asset managers and RIAs.

  • Investment managers can place their client's digital assets in qualified custody in a 100% offline [cold] storage solution.
  • BitGo's long track record of credibility, strong balance sheet, and best-in-class operational standards position the company for M&A and business growth amid this crypto winter.
  • The pairing of HeightZero's capabilities with BitGo's wallet and custodial infrastructure will offer scalability and efficiency to an industry that is poised for adoption and growth.

PALO ALTO, Calif., Oct. 17, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- BitGo Holdings, Inc. announced today the acquisition of HeightZero, a best-in-class digital asset management platform (TDAMP) focused on providing wealth managers the tools for digital asset exposure on behalf of their clients. The acquisition of HeightZero establishes BitGo as one of the first digital asset companies to provide a comprehensive solution for wealth managers.

"Today the HeightZero platform is universally rated as the best solution for wealth managers and SLAs working in the digital asset market. We've been proud to have partnered with HeightZero over the past several years and to be a part of their incredible growth.

Today 90% of advisors are fielding questions about digital assets, but only 15% are actually allocating to crypto in client accounts, according to a recent industry survey by VettaFi and Bitwise. Advisors cited concerns about centralized institution failures, custody issues, and limited investment options as significant barriers to increasing crypto allocations.

In response, HeightZero has developed a scalable all-in-one solution designed to streamline digital asset management, offering familiar capabilities and experiences for advisors. This includes a suite of professionally managed strategies from top index providers and portfolio products such as portfolio rebalancing, statement generation, tax loss harvesting, and automated billing. When paired with BitGo's qualified custodial solutions, investment managers can now be confident that their assets are safeguarded in segregated accounts, adhering to strict standards subject to regular independent audits.

"We are thrilled to join forces with BitGo, a pioneer and the leading digital asset custodian. Digital assets and blockchain technology are quickly moving to the forefront of wealth management, making it critical to provide solutions to a wide range of asset managers and RIAs. Together, we are poised to drive innovation and address the evolving needs of the industry, ensuring that our clients are well-equipped for the future of finance," said AJ Nary, Co-Founder of HeightZero.

"HeightZero's technology platform combined with BitGo's institutional grade custody is what asset managers like us need to safely and securely deliver our full discretionary service to financial advisors in the US efficiently. We pride ourselves in working with partners like BitGo and HeightZero who are aligned with our mission and won't compromise on security," says Marc Nichols, Product Director at Arbor Digital Investment Management.
