Gone are the days when cryptocurrency was mysterious and niche, traded by only tech-savvy investors. With a market value that has exceeded all U.S. currency in circulation, crypto has graduated to one of the world’s largest asset classes. In the years ahead, it’s highly likely that anyone handling money, from big banks to young investors, will have a direct interest in the proper management and regulation of crypto and the underlying blockchain technology.
That’s the mission adopted by Brane Capital, a Canadian fintech company that offers secure custody solutions for institutions looking to manage cryptocurrencies.
Brane believes independent custodians of cryptocurrency can play a vital role in stabilizing the market and protecting investors. Like a digital evolution of traditional asset custodians, crypto custodians oversee the private keys that allow people to access their crypto investments, and build the framework needed for institutions to securely manage digital assets.
