Crypto.com has announced the launch of its institutional crypto asset custody service.
What Is Crypto.com Custody Trust Company?
According to a statement made on December 23, the new platform, called Crypto.com Custody Trust Company, will offer asset custody services for U.S.-based institutional investors and high-net-worth individuals.
The company also announced that digital assets belonging to its U.S. and Canadian customers would be migrated to Crypto.com Custody Trust Company in the coming weeks.
Kris Marszalek, CEO of Crypto.com, emphasized that this move reflects the company’s confidence in the North American market, stating:
“Building our business and presence in two of the most important and active crypto markets in the world, the US and Canada.”
U.S. Expansion Plans and Political Collaborations
Crypto.com’s expansion plans in the U.S. go beyond launching new custody services. In December, newly elected U.S. President Donald Trump met with Crypto.com CEO Kris Marszalek at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida. The discussion reportedly focused on U.S. crypto policies.
On the same day, Crypto.com withdrew its lawsuit against the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), expressing its willingness to collaborate with the new administration on a regulatory framework for the crypto industry.
President Trump declared his vision to make the U.S. the “global hub for crypto” during his presidency and revealed plans to appoint crypto-friendly leaders to key regulatory positions.
Crypto.com’s expansion efforts in the U.S. carry strategic importance for the future of the crypto industry. The new custody service aims to earn institutional investors’ trust by operating in full compliance with regulations.
