Overview
- Frankfurt-based BitGo Europe can now run OTC services and an electronic trading platform for thousands of digital assets and stablecoins across the EU.
- The extension builds on BitGo’s May 2025 MiCA authorization, unifying trading with custody, staking, and transfers under formal EU and German oversight.
- Institutional clients can source liquidity from market makers and exchanges while trading and settling with assets kept in regulated cold storage.
- The rollout ties into BitGo’s expanded in-custody trading network with Copper, designed to let assets be executed without leaving ring-fenced custody.
- The move places BitGo among integrated European providers such as Coinbase and Kraken, with the firm also holding registrations in several EU states and an MPI license in Singapore.
