Why are BitGo and OTC Markets working together?

BitGo and OTC Markets Group plan to expand access to tokenised securities for more than 150 broker-dealers. They said the alliance would use existing regulated trading infrastructure.

What are tokenised securities?

Tokenised securities are blockchain-based versions of traditional financial assets, such as shares or bonds. They can be traded and settled using digital asset infrastructure.

How is BitGo involved in the proposal?

BitGo would provide qualified custody through BitGo Bank & Trust. Its Go Network would also support settlement between trading parties.

What does OTC Link ATS mean for broker-dealers?

OTC Link ATS is a regulated trading system used by broker-dealers in US over-the-counter markets. The proposal would let firms trade digital asset securities through that platform.

Why could the partnership expand beyond tokenised securities?

BitGo and OTC Markets said the framework could later support tokenised assets and commodities. They said any expansion would depend on future regulatory developments.

The companies said the alliance could expand as digital asset rules develop.

BitGo and OTC Markets Group plan to bring tokenised securities trading to more than 150 broker-dealers using OTC Link ATS.

The proposal would let broker-dealers quote, trade and settle digital asset securities through the same regulated systems they already use.

Under the proposal, BitGo Bank & Trust would act as the qualified custodian, while Go Network would support settlement between parties.

The companies said the framework could later expand to tokenised assets and commodities as regulations mature.

OTC Markets operates OTC Link ATS, a US Securities and Exchange Commission-regulated alternative trading system used by broker-dealers.

BitGo has continued expanding its institutional digital asset services as interest in tokenised securities grows.
