$FBTC is now supported by BitGo's infrastructure!

An exciting first step in our partnership as we introduce institutional-grade custody of $FBTC to Function and BitGo clients, providing them with secure and compliant access to DeFi strategies within a risk-managed framework.

By integrating with BitGo, Function expands Bitcoinโ€™s role in onchain finance. Enabling institutions to deploy $FBTC into various yield strategies and utilize their assets in new and productive ways.

โ€œWeโ€™re excited to partner with the global leading custodian to help safeguard BTC assets. Together, weโ€™ll be able to deliver BTC-on-BTC yield to institutions through a best-in-class security structure.โ€ โ€” Thomas Chen, CEO of Function
