Digital asset solutions provider BitGo and New York-based investment platform Republic are teaming up to democratize access to alternative investment opportunities. The partnership aims to offer individual investors access to investment products traditionally reserved for institutional and high-net-worth investors, the companies said in a press release. Republic will leverage BitGo’s infrastructure to strengthen its blockchain-powered investment ecosystem, bringing private market investments on-chain for ordinary investors. That includes the Hamilton Lane Private Infrastructure Fund, which Republic recently added to its platform. By tokenizing HLPIF, Republic is offering on-chain access to an asset class that was previously limited to traditional investors. More tokenized offerings are expected to follow. “Bringing the needed infrastructure to Republic in order to offer its investors access to never-before reachable assets is what BitGo is all about,” said Mike Belshe, chief executive officer and co-founder of BitGo. “BitGo is most known for custodying digital assets, but our infrastructure is also able to power regulated securities, whether tokenized onchain or on pieces of paper offchain.” You might also like: Telos taps Stargate, Circle and BitGo to unlock liquidity and DeFi growth With financial markets increasingly moving on-chain, BitGo is positioning itself to be “the backbone of that transition,” Belshe added. BitGo is best known for its crypto custody, wallet services, staking, and trading solutions. Founded in 2013, the firm has become one of the largest players in the digital asset space. In recent months, BitGo has expanded its reach by partnering with major industry and mainstream financial providers. In December 2024, the company launched a retail-focused platform to extend its services beyond institutional clients. The firm increased its footprint across the market further with the unveiling of a global over-the-counter crypto trading desk. Announced in February 2025, the OTC desk offers access to spot and derivatives trading. BitGo is one of the crypto companies reportedly eyeing a public listing.

Circle Teams With ICE to Integrate Stablecoins in Markets The partnership between Circle and ICE targets the integration of stablecoins like USDC into traditional financial markets, marking a significant step toward their mainstream adoption.

🔥 JUST IN: Circle and Intercontinental Exchange (ICE), parent of the NYSE, have signed an MoU to explore integrating $USDC and USYC into ICE’s trading, clearing, and data systems. Stablecoins hit $27.6 trillion in transfer volume in 2024, surpassing Visa and Mastercard.

Intercontinental Exchange Inc. (ICE), the parent company of the New York Stock Exchange, and fintech firm Circle Internet Group announced a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to explore integrating Circle’s USDC and USYC digital assets into ICE’s financial products and markets. The collaboration aims to leverage Circle’s $60 billion market-cap stablecoin, USDC—a digital dollar pegged 1:1 to the U.S. dollar—and its tokenized money market product, US Yield Coin (USYC), across ICE’s derivatives exchanges, clearinghouses, and data services. Jeremy Allaire, Circle’s CEO, stated the partnership could unlock major new use cases for USDC through ICE’s global network. Lynn Martin, President of the NYSE, emphasized growing trust in stablecoins as dollar equivalents, noting their potential to reshape capital markets. “We believe Circle’s stablecoins and tokenized digital currencies can play a larger role in capital markets,” she said. USDC reserves, primarily held in the SEC-registered Circle Reserve Fund (USDXX), are backed by cash and cash-equivalent assets. The stablecoin supports over 600 million wallets globally, facilitating payments, crypto trading, and store-of-value applications. Under the MoU, ICE and Circle will assess applications for these digital assets within ICE’s ecosystem, including novel derivatives, risk management tools, and tokenized financial instruments. The partnership aligns with ICE’s broader strategy to digitize workflows and expand market transparency. ICE operates major financial infrastructure, including futures exchanges, fixed-income platforms, and mortgage technology services. Circle, a stablecoin leader, explained on Thursday that it has pushed for regulated crypto adoption in traditional finance (TradFi) since launching USDC in 2018. The companies did not disclose timelines or specific product details, citing the exploratory nature of the agreement. 免责声明：本文章仅代表作者个人观点，不代表本平台的立场和观点。本文章仅供信息分享，不构成对任何人的任何投资建议。用户与作者之间的任何争议，与本平台无关。如网页中刊载的文章或图片涉及侵权，请提供相关的权利证明和身份证明发送邮件到support@aicoin.com，本平台相关工作人员将会进行核查。
