Summary

BitGo is a digital asset custody and infrastructure company, listed on the NYSE (BTGO) since January 2026 and, per its own announcement, holding final OCC approval to operate as a national trust bank. It is listed under Institutional Custody among Robinhood Chain's infrastructure partners and was the original sole custodian of Wrapped Bitcoin (WBTC) until a 2024 move to multi-jurisdictional custody involving BiT Global, which drew criticism because of that firm's alleged ties to Justin Sun. Documented incidents found are a 2020 OFAC sanctions settlement and a commercial dispute with Galaxy Digital; no custody-loss incident was found in the sources reviewed.
