Company’s IPO and OCC national trust bank charter mark a defining moment for the maturation of the digital asset industry

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jan. 29, 2026-- BitGo Holdings, Inc., (NYSE: BTGO) the digital asset infrastructure company, today announced that it has become the first publicly traded, federally chartered digital asset infrastructure company, following its initial public offering and related listing on the New York Stock Exchange on January 22, 2026 and the receipt of final approval from the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) to operate as a national trust bank.

The dual milestones position BitGo at the highest level of regulatory standing in the digital asset industry and reflect a broader shift toward regulated, institution-grade infrastructure as digital assets continue to integrate into global financial markets.

BitGo’s federal charter enables the company to provide regulated custody, wallet infrastructure, settlement, and related digital asset services to clients across all 50 U.S. states under a single national regulatory framework, while its public listing increases transparency, governance, and long-term accountability to customers, partners, and shareholders.

“Becoming a public company and a federally chartered national trust bank represents the culmination of more than a decade of building regulated, institutional-grade digital asset infrastructure,” said Mike Belshe, Chief Executive Officer of BitGo. “This is not just a milestone for BitGo, it is a milestone for the industry. Digital assets are entering a new era where trust, regulation, and resilience are foundational, and BitGo is proud to help set that standard.”

Since its founding in 2013, BitGo has focused on building core infrastructure for the digital asset economy, serving institutional clients including asset managers, exchanges, platforms, protocol foundations, and corporate treasuries. The company provides custody, wallet infrastructure, trading and financing services, settlement, stablecoins, and staking for the top brands and institutions in the world.

The combination of public-company governance and federal banking oversight further strengthens BitGo’s role as a long-term infrastructure provider for institutions seeking compliant and scalable access to digital assets.

“Traditional finance operates on regulated, neutral infrastructure that persists across market cycles,” added Mike Belshe. “Our mission has always been to build the equivalent for digital assets. These milestones reinforce that the industry is maturing and that regulated infrastructure is becoming the default, not the exception.”

BitGo plans to continue investing in product expansion, security, regulatory capabilities, and global growth to support the next phase of institutional and enterprise adoption.
