Now financial institutions want in on the action. - Published: 2024-10-10 - Modified: 2024-10-11 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/institutional-defi/ Decentralized finance (DeFi) – essentially, peer-to-peer interest-earning, borrowing, lending, and asset trading via public blockchains – has surged in the last two years, as near-zero interest rates and rising inflation have encouraged people to look for higher-yielding investment opportunities. While the essence of DeFi is to route around traditional intermediaries, financial institutions are looking to participate in DeFi’s growth. The DeFi market expanded throughout 2020, but its growth rate skyrocketed in 2021. For example, the total value of Ethereum assets deposited and earning DeFi rewards – known as “Total Value Locked,” or TVL – rose from $15 billion at the end of 2020 to $102 billion in late October 2021. That’s still only about 5% of the total crypto marketplace. Some analysts believe DeFi will become an $800 billion industry in 2022. Thus far, DeFi applications have primarily attracted individual, or retail, investors and crypto specialists. However, financial institutions are increasingly looking to enter the space, and there’s a range of infrastructure solutions to help them do so. . For those institutions planning to dip their toes into DeFi, here’s how the landscape looks now, what’s changing, and the developments they can expect to see soon. The Retail DeFi Landscape DeFi is revolutionizing finance by enabling individuals to transact directly, without the need for trusted intermediaries, so it’s unsurprising that it’s gained popularity in the retail banking and investing space. Instead of relying on banks, brokers, and fund managers to manage their money, DeFi enables people to manage assets themselves... --- ### What is MPC (Multi-Party Computation)? > MPC has become one of the primary technologies utilized to secure crypto assets. But what is MPC (multi party computation), and what are the key benefits? - Published: 2024-10-10 - Modified: 2024-10-11 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/what-is-mpc/ If you’re in the institutional digital asset space, you’ve probably heard about MPC (multi-party computation). While MPC theory has been around since the early ’80s, it first entered the digital asset space just a few years ago; since then, MPC has become one of the primary technologies wallet providers and custodians are utilizing to secure crypto assets. But what is MPC? How does it work, and what benefits does it have? We’ll walk you through everything you need to know about multi-party computation and its role in digital asset security today. Let’s start with an introduction to cryptography in general to get a better understanding of MPC’s origins. A (Very) Brief Introduction to Cryptography The field of cryptography provides its users with a method for: sending messages that only the intended receiver of the message will understand preventing unauthorized third parties from reading them in case of interception verifying the authenticity and integrity of digital messages from a known sender Though cryptography stretches as far back as the ancient Egyptians, one of the most famous modern examples is the Enigma machine – a device used by the Germans to send encrypted messages during WWII which was finally cracked by the British mathematician, Alan Turing. Whereas cryptography was once primarily the concern of government and military agencies, in the internet era cryptography plays an increasingly central role in the way we all transfer information. While the idea behind cryptography can appear simple, the field does include some extremely complex math. In... --- ### Digital Asset Custody 101: Its Key Role in Expanding Cryptocurrencies > Digital Asset Custody: Solutions, Benefits & Challenges - Published: 2024-10-10 - Modified: 2025-05-16 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/digital-asset-custody/ The financial services industry is in the midst of a global transition to mainstream adoption of digital assets, propelled by several converging trends. A rapidly growing number of businesses and individual investors recognize the value of digital assets such as cryptocurrencies and are seeking to own them. That puts pressure on financial institutions to help them do so. Meanwhile, the variety of digital assets continues to expand along with their collective value, which soared past a trillion dollars in 2020. Major players such as BNY Mellon, Visa, Mastercard, and BlackRock have already signaled that digital assets will play a significant role in their financial strategy. But for digital asset trading to really take off, investors need to know they’re safe. That means the future envisioned by these financial institutions rests on a digital asset custody foundation – which is why these converging trends are driving the need for crypto custody providers that meet the requirements of institutional as well as individual investors. This is no idle concern: criminals have stolen at least $15 billion in cryptocurrencies in recent years. In response, a wide and growing variety of financial institutions, including major banks as well as exchanges and other financial services providers, are seeking to offer investors the ability to securely store, buy and sell digital assets. These custodial services require specialized technology that combines strong security with speed, scalability, and operational flexibility. Because the availability of these services will encourage greater digital asset investment, digital custody offerings are critical to... --- ### Resources Index Page > White papers, cheat sheets, guides, and more to educate you on all things cryptocurrency and digital assets. - Published: 2024-10-08 - Modified: 2025-05-15 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/resources/ --- ### Customer Stories Index Page > Learn how the most forward-thinking companies are securely building and scaling their businesses with Fireblocks. - Published: 2024-10-08 - Modified: 2025-06-03 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/customers/ --- ### Fireblocks for Developers > Explore the Fireblocks platform to build with security and scale without limits with our APIs, SDKs, guides, and tutorials. - Published: 2024-10-01 - Modified: 2025-06-02 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/developers/ --- ### Crypto Treasury Management 101 > Streamline your crypto treasury operations with expert insights on key components, best practices, and security measures. - Published: 2024-09-19 - Modified: 2024-10-11 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/crypto-treasury-management-101/ --- ### Meet the Fireblocks team @ Token2049 Singapore > Meet the Fireblocks team at TOKEN2049 Singapore | 18-19 September 2024 - Published: 2024-08-09 - Modified: 2024-08-27 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/token2049-singapore-september-2024/ --- ### Deployment Packages Terms > Fast-track your onboarding experience with Fireblocks by choosing from these deployment packages to get started. - Published: 2024-08-02 - Modified: 2024-10-19 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/deployment-packages-terms/ --- ### Cookie Policy - Published: 2024-07-18 - Modified: 2024-07-19 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/cookie-policy/ What This Policy Covers I.

Whether you’re an established enterprise, a new startup, or traditional finance institution, this guide offers a foundation for understanding different wallet types and service providers, highlighting each of their distinguishing characteristics to help you determine which custody model works best for your digital strategy, and the considerations to keep in mind when selecting digital asset wallet services. Wallet Types and Providers Each wallet type and wallet provider has different characteristics. Below is a terminology of the key players in wallet security and roles. Custody technology service provider refers to a digital asset wallet service provider that provides a technology or software solution for the creation, administration and security of digital asset wallets. Fireblocks is an example of a custody technology service provider. Business refers to the contracting party with either a custody technology service provider or a subcustodian. A business may contract with wallet providers to enable a variety of use cases, ranging from the administration of their own assets (i. e. treasury management) to the “white labeling” of wallets to provide services to their own end-user customers (i. e. retail custody). End-user refers to the customer(s) of the business. Th end users may have a contractual relationship with the business but they rarely have a direct contractual relationship with the wallet service provider.

Did anyone (in crypto) talk about anything else this May? A Stablecoin Act by August The GENIUS Act cleared several procedural hurdles with bipartisan support. It is now headed for a final vote in the Senate and a journey through the House. The expectation is for a stablecoin legislation to be submitted for the President’s signature before DC’s summer recess. To get here, amendments had to be made to secure support from the Senate Democrats, after a blocked cloture vote in April. Those covered anti-money laundering protections and innovations, restrictions around foreign issuers, and the treatment of payment stablecoin issuers in insolvency proceedings. BigTech Fears in the Balance One of the most curious debates was around BigTech and their potential expansion into payments territory, giving them the power to “print their own money” or use consumer data to corner markets. It reminded me of European debates on MiCA and on open data, during the Financial Data Access Regulation (FiDA) negotiations. Then and now, my view is this: legislators and supervisors must ensure that consumer data cannot be leveraged outside the activity for which it was given. But a compliant BigTech firm should not be precluded from an economic activity out of hypothetical fears. Are Stablecoin Issuers Banks? Tech, big or not, entering the banking and payments space proves to be an emotive topic. This month, a public debate reignited, aired by the Economist and the FT, on whether stablecoin issuers should simply be required to get a banking license.... --- ### Financial Market Infrastructures: Opportunities for Leadership in Digital Asset Infrastructure > Explore how FMIs are evolving with blockchain, driving innovation while ensuring stability in a digital asset future. - Published: 2025-05-29 - Modified: 2025-05-29 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/financial-market-infrastructures-opportunities/ - Categories: Expert Commentary, Industry Insights - Tags: Digital Asset Custody, Payments, Tokenization Financial market infrastructures (FMIs) form the backbone of the global financial system, playing a vital role in ensuring its safety, efficiency, and overall stability. FMIs—including payment systems, securities settlement systems, central securities depositories (CSDs), central counterparties (CCPs), and trade repositories—are now under growing pressure to evolve. This is because blockchain technology is introducing a new model for how markets operate and value moves: faster, more transparent, and in many cases, without the need for traditional intermediaries. Siemens’ digital bond issuance in 2023, conducted under the German Electronic Securities Act, was executed without the involvement of a single FMI. It’s a landmark example that forces a pressing question: how do FMIs remain essential in an increasingly decentralized financial system? The answer is not resistance, but leadership. FMIs should take an active role in shaping the architecture of the emerging digital asset ecosystem—building on their scale, trust, and expertise. FMIs at Scale: Transformation Without Disruption FMIs manage financial flows of unparalleled volume and complexity: In 2024, the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC) processed transactions worth nearly $4 quadrillion. Euroclear, one of Europe’s largest central securities depositories, holds over €40 trillion in assets. These volumes make FMIs indispensable—but also cautious. Change must be coordinated, resilient, and safe. That said, we know that FMIs can—and do—deliver large-scale innovation without compromising market stability. Consider DTCC’s successful coordination of the recent U. S. transition to a T+1 settlement cycle—a complex, far-reaching change that required extensive market alignment. It’s a testament to the industry's capacity for... --- ### European Stablecoin Adoption: Intentional Progress, Strategic Scale > Explore how European institutions are integrating stablecoins, driven by MiCA clarity, security, and competitive urgency. - Published: 2025-05-28 - Modified: 2025-05-28 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/european-stablecoin-adoption/ - Categories: Expert Commentary, Industry Insights - Tags: Compliance, Payments Stablecoins have moved beyond early experimentation, as Fireblocks' State of Stablecoins 2025 report shows. Based on insights from nearly 300 C-suite executives across banking, fintech, and crypto-native firms, the findings indicate a clear shift from pilot programmes to operational deployment. In Europe, that shift is unfolding with measured intent—driven by regulatory clarity, infrastructure readiness, and a clear focus on competitive positioning. Key indicators from the report help explain how stablecoins are being integrated into institutional payments infrastructure across the region. Europe takes a measured approach to stablecoin integration Europe's path differs from other regions not in ambition, but in pace. The introduction of MiCA, alongside regulatory progress in the UK, has provided a level of clarity many global peers are still seeking. Only 18% of European respondents cite regulation as a barrier to adoption, and 58% are already using or planning to use stablecoins in payment flows. This is not a matter of hesitation. It reflects deliberate planning. Institutions across the region are working to ensure stablecoin integrations are robust, secure, and aligned with existing compliance standards. Clarity from MiCA is opening a path to competitive positioning Whereas growth-oriented metrics dominate globally, in Europe, 37% of firms cite competitive pressure as their primary driver for stablecoin adoption—the highest of any region. With MiCA offering greater regulatory clarity, many institutions are now looking to establish a competitive position within a more clearly defined framework. Rather than holding back for guidance, firms are beginning to shape their own strategies, knowing the regulatory... --- ### From Crypto-Curious to Crypto-Confident: How PSPs Are Embracing Digital Assets > Explore how stablecoins and regulation are accelerating PSP adoption of digital asset payments across the finance ecosystem. - Published: 2025-05-27 - Modified: 2025-05-27 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/from-crypto-curious-to-crypto-confident/ - Categories: Expert Commentary, Industry Insights - Tags: Digital Asset Custody, Payments, Tokenization Three Years Ago, We Called It Three years ago, we put together a slide showing how we believed stablecoin payments would evolve within businesses. The premise was simple: Blockchain is another payment rail, just like ACH, Wire, SEPA, etc. Stablecoins are the best medium to move monetary value on that rail. Eventually, all businesses will have to gain access to it, just like they have access to banking or FX. There will be driving forces along the way that would contribute to the evolution, but the most critical two are the tokenization of more currencies and the proliferation of legitimate on/off-ramps (the x-axis on Figure 1). Regulations underpin all of this. As those become clearer, more encompassing, and more interoperable across key jurisdictions, the other milestones mentioned above will occur faster. Figure 1 Fast forward to today, and we’re watching this play out in real time. The shift to stablecoins isn’t theoretical anymore—it’s happening. In the last twelve months, we have moved from sporadic exploration to massive experimentation, and now, implementation. Let’s double-click on the journey that PSPs are going through. Up until now, the default posture for most traditional (and by traditional, I mean fiat only) payment service providers has been Crypto-Remote—keeping a safe distance from digital assets, outsourcing the ‘crypto part’ to third parties, and largely pretending crypto doesn’t exist while still reaping some of the benefits (and obviously being able to market an offering that has digital assets in it). But that’s changing fast. Regulatory tailwinds, institutional... --- ### Gearing Up for Prime Time: Introducing Fireblocks Business Continuity Module (BCM) > Ensure 24/7 resilience and compliance in digital finance with Fireblocks' Business Continuity Module. Built for stablecoins, DORA, and cross-border flows. - Published: 2025-05-27 - Modified: 2025-05-27 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/introducing-fireblocks-business-continuity-module/ - Categories: Product & Platform Updates - Tags: Best Practice In today’s financial system, stability isn’t optional—it’s the baseline. With banks embracing digital asset rails, stablecoins moving at scale, and regulation turning into a green light, the demand for enterprise-grade continuity has never been higher. According to our recent State of Stablecoins report: Traditional banks are 2x more likely to prioritise cross-border payments over any other use case – this is 24/7/365 86% of respondents believe their infrastructure is ready for stablecoin flows. 90% view regulation as a growth catalyst, not a blocker—a 60% swing from just a year ago. Yet despite this momentum, many institutions still face a major blocker: ensuring continuity and compliance standards that match the rigor of traditional financial systems. That’s where Fireblocks Business Continuity Module comes in. Built for the Future of Regulated Finance The Business Continuity Module (BCM) is a self-hosted, autonomous signing solution designed to ensure operational resilience, even in the rare event of a Fireblocks platform disruption. Continuity isn’t just about uptime—it’s about meeting internal controls and compliance standards that mirror core banking infrastructure. BCM was built with those exact requirements in mind. BCM enables secure, standalone transaction signing for institutions using Fireblocks' hosted MPC solution, with full support for hot workspaces (continuity via API-based co-signers) and cold workspaces offline signing preserved via the Fireblocks Cold Wallet and BCM QR app. These capabilities deliver: Resilient operations without compromising security Alignment with enterprise continuity expectations Confidence for compliance teams and regulators to greenlight innovations Operational Readiness from Day One BCM isn’t just a... --- ### Introducing Gasless Transactions: Send Any Token Without Gas Fees on EVM Chains > Send and receive tokens gas-free on EVM chains with Fireblocks' Universal Gasless—no ETH, no hassle. - Published: 2025-05-23 - Modified: 2025-05-23 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/universal-gasless-evm-transactions-launch/ - Categories: Industry Insights, Product & Platform Updates - Tags: Tokenization This week, Fireblocks announced a series of new products and features to make the blockchain experience a whole lot smoother.

This wasn’t just crypto-native energy. It was banks, fintechs, regulators, and payment providers all coming to the same conclusion: stablecoins are no longer theory. They’re infrastructure. As Fireblocks CEO Michael Shaulov noted in his fireside chat at Consensus 2025, stablecoins are no longer emerging—they’re embedded. In just the last 90 days, they’ve made up roughly 50% of total volume across our platform. Our report confirms this: 49% of institutions globally are already using stablecoins for payments today, and another 41% are in the piloting or planning stages. This is not theoretical interest. It’s tangible progress. The industry is vibrant and building, laying down the infrastructure for the future of financial services. In this blog, I take a closer look at the report’s findings specific to North America. The progress being made here is set to influence the pace and scope of global adoption in the months and years ahead.   North America’s Edge: Use Case Breadth While Latin America is leading on live usage and Asia is scaling liquidity, North America stands out for its integrated approach.   Institutions here are rolling out stablecoin flows across a variety of areas, including: Cross-border payments (39%) Payments acceptance (22%) Merchant settlement (18%) Internal treasury (12%) B2B invoicing (9%) Stablecoins bring value to more than... --- ### Fixing Treasury Ops: Why Protocol Success Depends on Infrastructure > From vesting to vendor payouts, Fireblocks automates digital asset treasury operations for protocols. Learn how leading Web3 teams scale securely. - Published: 2025-05-22 - Modified: 2025-05-22 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/fixing-treasury-ops-why-protocol-success-depends-on-infrastructure/ - Categories: Industry Insights, Product & Platform Updates You’ve launched your protocol—or you're close. Engineers are building. TVL is starting to grow. But behind the scenes, your treasury operations are still stuck in browser wallets, spreadsheets, and Slack messages. That’s not just inefficient. It’s a liability. Strong treasury infrastructure isn’t a nice-to-have. It’s a growth enabler. Without it, your finance, ops, and engineering teams spend time plugging gaps instead of shipping products or scaling adoption. The Hidden Cost of Manual Treasury Management Most early-stage protocols are still managing capital the hard way: No audit trail across developer wallets Manual gas top-ups and token distributions Risk-prone key management via browser extensions Onboarding and offboarding that drags No policy enforcement across environments Delays in paying vendors, contractors, or tokenholders These gaps aren’t just technical. They affect your operational speed, compliance posture, and internal trust. Key Takeaways Manual treasury ops introduce risk, inefficiency, and complexity Fireblocks enables secure, automated, policy-driven workflows Teams scale faster when governance, payouts, and custody are unified Fireblocks for Protocols & Foundations Fireblocks gives Web3 foundations and protocols a secure, institutional-grade treasury management platform to run their operations from day one — whether you’re pre-TGE or managing billions in assets. With Fireblocks, teams can: Automate digital asset treasury management operations Control governance rules across users, teams, and smart contracts Enable multi-user crypto wallet management Eliminate key exposure with MPC wallet as a service Export auditable records and integrate with analytics tools Why DIY Doesn’t Scale Browser wallets aren’t built for teams or production environments Shared keys and... --- ### Operate Smart.

But every new dollar—and every new user—expands the attack surface potential. From credential stuffing and phishing, to malicious smart contracts and front-end exploits, today’s threat landscape is broader, faster, and more sophisticated than ever. And with AI-enabled attackers scaling reconnaissance and social engineering, the risk has never been higher. At Fireblocks, security isn’t only a product—it’s a philosophy. From day one, we’ve taken a defense-in-depth approach, securing every layer of digital asset operations: credentials, addresses, policies, and workflows. Today, we're introducing powerful new innovations in Fireblocks' security architecture—designed to help you scale with confidence. The Next Generation Fireblocks Policy Engine Policy controls are the foundation of secure digital asset operations. They define who can move assets, when, where, and how much—and keep teams aligned across treasury, trading, and product workflows. That’s why we rebuilt the Policy Engine from the ground up with more granular control, intuitive UX, and scale-ready logic. This is additive to all governance policies created and managed via Fireblocks’ API. With the new Policy Engine, businesses get: Segmented views by action type for easier navigation and management Multi-asset rules to reduce duplication and simplify logic A guided rule builder that simplifies even advanced configurations Inline summaries and rule naming, giving teams clarity and confidence Supports API-first workflows with APIs for authentication and policy management Fireblocks’ new Policy Engine is a leap forward for operational clarity.... --- ### Powering the Next Era of Digital Value > Explore Fireblocks’ latest security innovations powering the next era of secure digital asset operations. - Published: 2025-05-21 - Modified: 2025-06-02 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/fireblocks-security-innovations-digital-asset-infrastructure/ - Categories: Product & Platform Updates - Tags: DeFi, Payments, Security, Transaction Policies, Treasury Management Powering over 2,000 businesses and securing more than $10 trillion in digital asset transactions , we know what it takes not just to participate in this new economy — but to lead it.   In the past 12 months, we’ve seen a clear shift. Crypto is entering the mainstream — and fast. With digital assets getting integrated into modern finance, the infrastructure supporting them must rise to the occasion — purpose-built for scale, security, and resilience. This moment demands infrastructure that is 10x better — across security, simplicity, scalability and interoperability — to meet the needs of real businesses and billions of users worldwide. 10x: Security, Simplicity, Scale Over the past year, three structural forces have redefined what it truly means to be ‘mainstream-ready. ’  First, security threats have become more sophisticated and relentless. In 2024 alone, there were 303 major hacks resulting in over $2. 2 billion in stolen assets, not to mention the $1. 5 billion breach at Bybit earlier this year. The scale and velocity of these threats make one thing clear: if your infrastructure can’t adapt faster than the threat, it becomes the threat. Second, we’ve entered a consumer-grade era. Today’s users expect intuitive, seamless experiences. Businesses need infrastructure that responds quickly to the evolving ecosystem to ensure this.   Finally, network activity has exploded. Transaction volumes are hitting unpredictable peaks, driven by everything from memecoins, cross-border transactions, to institutional settlement flows. The 1000% spike in traffic on Solana is one of many to come. Introducing... --- ### State of Stablecoins 2025: The Payments Infrastructure Reset > Discover how stablecoins are reshaping global payments, with 86% ready to scale, and clear regulation accelerates momentum. - Published: 2025-05-15 - Modified: 2025-05-15 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/state-of-stablecoins-2025-payments-infrastructure-reset/ - Categories: Company News & Updates, Expert Commentary, Industry Insights - Tags: Payments For all of us who have been awake for the last 2 years, the adoption of stablecoins is no longer a surprise. In 2024 alone, they accounted for nearly half of all transactions on the Fireblocks platform—representing 15% of global stablecoin volume. But where they are leveraged, for what use case, and how is not always clear.   We asked ~300 payment providers and banks around the globe all about it, and found fascinating trends shared in the State of Stablecoins report. TL:DR — the industry is gearing up for prime time Speed beats savings. 48% cite real-time settlement as the #1 edge; lower fees comes in last. Stablecoins are now seen as a growth lever, not a cost play. (and some might say speed = savings) ((stablecoins helped WorldPay speed up settlement time by 50%))  Execution-ready infrastructure. 86% say their wallets, APIs, and compliance tooling can handle stablecoin flows (Zeebu, a B2B Telecom company, has processed $5. 7B with web3 payments - this is no joke) Regulation is now a tailwind. 85% see new rules and standards as green lights, not red tape— in 2023, only 25%said regulation was not a barrier. (Banking Circle is inspiring trusted adoption with their MiCa regulated stablecoin, EURI). Enterprise-grade is the new bar. When asked what decides infrastructure provider selection, 41 % said “Fast and reliable payouts,” while 34% named compliance as key. Payments at scale need both. (why else are 300+ of the top payments companies and banks choosing Fireblocks ;) ) ... --- ### Fireblocks Grant Programs: Fueling Innovation in Digital Assets  > Discover how Fireblocks grants support blockchain, stablecoin, and Web3 projects driving digital asset ecosystem growth. - Published: 2025-05-13 - Modified: 2025-05-13 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/fireblocks-grant-program/ - Categories: Company News & Updates - Tags: Best Practice The digital asset landscape is a hotbed of innovation, with advancements in blockchain infrastructure, stablecoin payments, tokenization, and Web3 applications constantly pushing the boundaries of what's possible.

That means smart accounts, better UX, and way more flexibility on-chain are finally becoming a reality for EOAs and Smart Contracts alike. And top of mind is the intersection of it all with MPC.   In biology, mutualism describes a close, long-term relationship where both parties benefit – think bees collecting nectar while pollinating flowers, or clownfish enhancing water circulation for anemones in exchange for protection. Some species thrive when paired, and this reality is obviously not limited to biology. EIP-7702, a significant advancement for Ethereum and the EVM ecosystem, is powerful on its own, as highlighted in discussions here, but when combined with MPC (Multi-party computation) wallets and the robust infrastructure developed by MPC providers over the years, its power grows. Like true symbiotic partners, EIP-7702 and MPC wallets together enable a more functional, more secure overall wallet. Let’s set the table.   Many evangelizers of smart contract wallets and account abstraction pit these technologies against simple EOAs to argue their benefits. This is expedient, but ultimately counterproductive as it doesn’t address reality, especially in the institutional wallet space. As of today, most (though still not all) institutions are transacting on-chain with some sort of advanced security setup for their EOAs. Whether placing the private key in an hardware security module (HSM) or implementing Multi-party computation (MPC), businesses are generally no longer writing seed-phrases on notepads.   Why am I telling you this? Because, as we examine... --- ### Fintech 2.0: Why Banks Must Adapt or Be Left Behind > Explore why fintechs are outpacing banks and how digital rails, blockchain, and bold moves can close the gap. - Published: 2025-05-06 - Modified: 2025-05-06 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/fintech-2-0-for-banks/ - Categories: Expert Commentary, Industry Insights - Tags: Banking, Best Practice, Payments For banks, the question is no longer if they should act, but how fast they must adapt.   Over the last two decades we’ve seen a meteoric rise of fintechs, starting as small startups focused on user acquisition and hypergrowth. Today, these same firms are maturing into sustainable, profit-generating businesses proving they’re here to stay; they are fundamentally reshaping the financial services industry. With increasingly diversified product lines, robust technology stacks, and regulatory support, fintechs are no longer just serving the retail masses—they're climbing upstream, taking on traditional financial institutions at their own game. They’ve leveraged their digital-first edge to capture the initial share of digital wallets. Now, fintechs are using emerging settlement technologies like blockchain to deepen that advantage, accelerating innovation and expanding offerings at unprecedented speed. From P2P Payments to Institutional Powerhouses The fintech revolution started with P2P remittance payments, a market that was dominated by a small number of brick-and-mortar incumbents who spent decades building out infrastructure and networks. As technology and mobile banking started to proliferate, digital-first remittance providers with targeted focus started to take share of wallet away from the incumbents by competing on cost and user experience. Fast forward to today, neobanks and fintech platforms now offer a full suite of financial services: deposit accounts, lending, brokerage, and even institutional-grade solutions. Take Nubank, for example. Once known for its consumer credit cards in Brazil, Nubank has become one of the largest digital financial services platforms in the world, boasting over 90 million customers across... --- ### April (Policy) Showers  > Explore key crypto policy shifts from the U.S., UK, EU, and APAC—covering stablecoins, tokenization, and regulatory sandboxes. - Published: 2025-04-30 - Modified: 2025-05-01 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/april-crypto-policy-roundup-stablecoins-tokenization-global-regulatory-shifts/ - Categories: Expert Commentary, Industry Insights - Tags: Compliance, Stablecoins, Tokenization Each month, the Fireblocks policy team takes stock of policy developments around the world that matter to our clients and to our business. Here, I share my views on the April developments I think counted the most—at times intentionally highlighting announcements that didn’t make the headlines. U. S. Crypto Policy Warms Up Under Trump Administration As the Trump Administration marks its 100th day, digital asset developments in the US steadily support a drumbeat of removing barriers to the banking sector to engage with crypto.   This included the Federal Reserve Board (FRB) and Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) withdrawing joint statements issued in the wake of the 2023 FTX collapse related to the permissibility of engaging in crypto-related activities, while the Department of Justice (DOJ) released a memorandum serving as another measure to end “regulation by prosecution. ” Meanwhile, President Trump repealed the so-called Internal Revenue Service’s (IRS) DeFi Broker Rule, which would have required decentralized finance applications to file as brokers for transactions. Now all eyes are on progress of the US stablecoin legislation, and outputs from the SEC Crypto Task Force Request for Information and expert roundtables. ECB Pushes Back on U. S. Crypto Momentum As discourse on crypto is (thankfully) getting more pragmatic in Washington DC, the European Central Bank seems (unfortunately) to be moving in the opposite direction. This month, the ECB ramped up its campaign to express concerns that the US support for digital assets may destabilize the European economy. The ECB views found some... --- ### Charting the Course: How Paris Blockchain Week Mirrors the Path to Maturity of Digital Assets > Discover how PBW 2025 marks a shift to institutional adoption, real use cases, and France’s leadership in digital asset innovation. - Published: 2025-04-24 - Modified: 2025-04-24 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/paris-blockchain-week-2025-look-at-digital-asset-landscape/ - Categories: Digital Asset Insider, Expert Commentary, Industry Insights - Tags: Payments I’ve returned from my fourth Paris Blockchain Week (PBW) with Fireblocks, which gives us a great opportunity to see how far we’ve come in the digital asset space. No longer a space for curious exploration, PBW is where we talk about implementation for mainstream adoption that’s happening today. And much like the industry, I’ve seen my own growth over the past five years at Fireblocks! Look at How Far We’ve Come 2022 was all about foundational conversations: NFTs, the metaverse, and digital governance dominated the stage. Enterprises were exploring proof-of-concepts and speculative use cases. Maybe you were one of those early pioneers working in an isolated innovation lab? In 2023, we shifted to implementation and scalability:  Digital asset custody, tokenization, and DeFi gained prominence.   The NFT craze had cooled as attention shifted to real-world financial applications, like French corporates opting for self-treasury management in the context of holding crypto for payments or to fund smart contracts operations. Institutional adoption took center stage in 2024: We spoke about tokenizing real-world assets, digital payments, and central bank digital currencies. Enterprises weren’t just ideating; they were executing. Tangible applications emerged in areas like real estate tokenization, supply chain finance, and loyalty programs. Everyone was realizing that their blockchain infrastructure was an important strategic choice. Like Flowdesk, the market maker who built on the Fireblocks Network to connect and trade with thousands of liquidity partners, trading venues, and counterparties around the globe.   2025: Maturity in the Digital Asset Landscape Today, we are... --- ### Japanese Megabank SMBC Leverages Fireblocks for Stablecoins > SMBC partners with Fireblocks to explore stablecoin use for payments and tokenized assets in Japan's evolving financial market. - Published: 2025-04-24 - Modified: 2025-04-24 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/smbc-teams-up-with-fireblocks-to-advance-stablecoin-adoption/ - Categories: Company News & Updates - Tags: Payments, Tokenization One of Japan’s largest banks is leveraging Fireblocks, alongside other technology providers, to explore stablecoin initiatives, dialing up momentum in the Japanese digital asset space.   Fireblocks, Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation (SMBC), Ava Labs, and TIS have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to initiate joint discussions on the commercial use of stablecoins. Since last year, the four parties have engaged in preliminary discussions to assess the feasibility of leveraging stablecoins for wholesale payments between financial institutions and businesses. Additionally, the initiative will examine potential use cases leveraging stablecoins, including as a settlement mechanism for tokenized financial and real-world assets (RWAs), such as government and corporate bonds, as well as real estate. This MoU will see Fireblocks, SMBC, Ava Labs, and TIS collaborate to develop a framework for stablecoin issuance and circulation, including exploring key technical, regulatory, and market infrastructure requirements both in Japan and further afield. Upping the ante with stablecoins Stablecoins have emerged as a game-changer in financial services, providing a near-instant, lower-cost alternative to traditional payment methods, with use cases including international remittances, corporate cross-border settlements, and payouts.   Tokenized deposits and stablecoins have the potential to reduce cross-border transaction costs by up to 80% while accelerating settlement speeds from days to mere seconds. This efficiency has driven rapid stablecoin adoption, with the total market capitalization at $235 billion as of March 2025. Banks and financial institutions are increasingly recognizing the immense potential of stablecoins to positively impact the financial system. We are excited to work with... --- ### It’s All About the Network—Welcome, Circle! > Fireblocks supports Circle Payments Network (CPN) to enable real-time, secure connectivity across the digital asset economy. - Published: 2025-04-21 - Modified: 2025-04-21 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/fireblocks-network-circle-payments-network-digital-asset-connectivity/ - Categories: Company News & Updates, Expert Commentary, Industry Insights, Product & Platform Updates - Tags: Payments If there’s one truth in payments, it’s this: the network always wins. Think of what Visa and Mastercard created: not just payment rails, but global ecosystems of merchants, issuers, acquirers, and processors. Their networks didn’t just move money—they connected entire economies. As digital assets move into the mainstream, the same principle applies. But the networks of tomorrow won’t be built on closed systems and settlement delays. They’ll be programmable, open, and instant—connecting stablecoins, banks, wallets, protocols, and more in real time. At Fireblocks, we’ve been building the digital asset network from day one. The Fireblocks Network: The Digital Asset Economy’s Infrastructure Layer Before stablecoins took off or tokenization made headlines, we knew the digital asset ecosystem would need more than just wallets and blockchains. It would need connective tissue—a trusted network that institutions could use to discover counterparties, transfer value securely, and interact across multiple rails. That is the Fireblocks Network. It’s the largest and most active digital asset network in the world, powering secure, real-time connectivity between: Exchanges and market makers Banks and custodians On/off-ramp partners Token issuers and protocols Payment platforms and fintechs This isn’t just about messaging or payments. It’s an infrastructure layer for all forms of digital value transfer, built with standardized APIs, battle-tested security, and real-time asset movement. With over 2,000 institutions transacting daily, the Fireblocks Network has become a foundational layer of the new financial system. And we’re just getting started. Supporting Circle’s CPN—Because We Power Connectivity That’s why we’re proud to support the... --- ### Unlocking Profit: How Bankers Can Harness Stablecoins for Revenue Growth > Discover how banks are using stablecoins to boost revenue through payments, issuer services, and launching their own coins. - Published: 2025-04-17 - Modified: 2025-05-19 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/unlocking-profit-how-bankers-can-harness-stablecoins-for-revenue-growth/ - Categories: Expert Commentary, Industry Insights, Knowledge Base - Tags: Digital Asset Custody, Payments, Tokenization, Treasury Management Brian Moynihan recently remarked, “It’s pretty clear there’s going to be a stablecoin... So if they make that legal, we’ll go into that business ... it’s just then like another foreign currency. ”  While the comments from the CEO of Bank of America capture one bank use case for stablecoins, these digital assets have much more to offer banks than that. Stablecoins provide an opportunity for banks to grow into new markets, expand their solutions, boost their revenue potential significantly, and free up capital. Don’t just take my word for it. Visa estimates that there were $6 trillion of organic stablecoin settlements in 2024. A niche concept just a few years ago is now equivalent to half the value of all transactions on Visa’s network.   So while payments are definitely one way for banks to drive revenue from stablecoins, I think it’s important to understand the full range of opportunities they present to banks. To illustrate these opportunities, I’ve outlined three proven areas where banks can generate revenue through stablecoins today: incorporating stablecoins in their current products, services and operations; serving the emerging stablecoin issuer market; and issuing their own stablecoins. The upside is still evolving, but our experience working with more than 60 of the first-mover banks globally (like ABN AMRO, BNP Paribas, ANZ and more) shows that they are already seeing gains across payments, FX, treasury, and custody thanks to stablecoins. Let’s take a closer look. How do Stablecoins Open up Improvements to Traditional Banking Services? There... --- ### What’s Driving the Stablecoin Surge in Argentina and Brazil? > Argentina and Brazil are leading stablecoin adoption - learn what’s driving the surge and where the market is heading next. - Published: 2025-04-11 - Modified: 2025-05-15 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/whats-driving-the-stablecoin-surge-in-argentina-and-brazil/ - Categories: Expert Commentary, Industry Insights - Tags: Digital Asset Custody, Payments They may be at different stages in their journey, but Argentina and Brazil are both headed to the same destination: integration of stablecoins into the fabric of their financial systems. We’ve seen the headlines that both countries are keen cryptocurrency adopters. Argentina, ranked 14 among the top 20 countries globally in the Chainalysis index, leads the Latin America region in terms of cryptocurrency value received, with an estimated $91. 1 billion in 2024, only slightly ahead of Brazil’s estimated $90. 3 billion. Yet, it’s the dominance of stablecoins that truly marks their progress. In Argentina, stablecoins accounted for 61. 8% of all crypto activities, while in Brazil, the figure was a closely following 59. 8%. Both are well above the global average of 44. 7%. And the stablecoin momentum continues to build. In February, the head of the Brazilian Central Bank remarked that 90% of the country’s crypto flows are linked to stablecoins. What’s driving this demand for stablecoins—and where is it headed? We recently hosted Fireblocks partners, customers, and the top regulators in São Paulo and Buenos Aires, so here’s the latest scoop. Brazil’s Stablecoin Innovation Thrives—Awaiting Regulatory Catalyst for Big Shift In November of 2024, the Banco Central do Brasil announced three different public consultations around regulation of virtual assets. The consultations were followed by a series of events and private meetings with market participants— and due to tremendous public interest and the bank’s own eagerness to engage with industry, they had to add another consultation meeting just... --- ### March of the Digital Assets > Explore the top digital asset policy developments in the U.S., Brazil, Asia, and beyond—and what they signal about the future of global crypto regulation. - Published: 2025-04-08 - Modified: 2025-04-08 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/march-2025-global-crypto-regulation-update/ - Categories: Expert Commentary, Industry Insights - Tags: Digital Asset Custody, Payments, Tokenization Each month, the Fireblocks policy team takes stock of policy developments around the world that matter to our clients and to our business. Here, I share my views on the March developments I think counted the most—at times intentionally highlighting announcements that didn’t make the headlines. Starting counter-sun-wise, Washington DC saw the U. S. commitment to becoming digital asset centre of gravity take more and more concrete shape. Much has been written about the Federal Bitcoin Reserve and the rapid progress of the U. S. stablecoin legislations through Congress. What I’d like to highlight are two agency-level developments that are making an immediate impact on the ability of U. S. banks to step up their digital assets investments. Firstly, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) released Interpretive Letter 1183, clarifying that federally-chartered banks may participate in crypto custody and stablecoin activities, as well as independent node verification (i. e. , distributed ledger technology). Secondly, FDIC Chair Travis Hill announced plans for the agency to remove “reputational risk” from its bank supervision guidance in a move that would ease risk mitigation for crypto companies. South of the border, in Brazil, we have a fascinating proposal for partial cryptocurrency salary payments (capped at 50%). It also provides for financial education for employees opting into crypto pay. In my view, this seeks to legitimize the crypto salary payments industry while simultaneously bringing more revenues on the radar of tax authorities. It’s an interesting approach—trying to do so with a carrot,... --- ### 44% of US Banks Actioning Their Digital Asset Journey, with Payments as Top Use Case > Explore new data from U.S. banks on digital asset readiness, use cases, and challenges from the latest American Banker webinar. - Published: 2025-04-04 - Modified: 2025-04-04 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/digital-asset-journey/ - Categories: Expert Commentary, Knowledge Base - Tags: Digital Asset Custody, Payments Not surprisingly, with the new US administration bringing in new policies to support digital asset regulations, US banks have been asking Fireblocks what opportunities this creates for them. In a recent webinar with American Banker, we polled US banks to get insights into how they are incorporating digital assets into their strategies. Here’s what we found. 44% of Banks Already Taking Action on Digital Assets Our first question was on institutional readiness and the results were not surprising. The majority of banks—56%—are just beginning their digital assets journey. This is mainly attributable to the regulatory landscape in the United States over the past few years and the recent shift to fostering policies that aim to strengthen the digital assets sector. Interestingly, we saw that 28% of participants are actively identifying use cases, and 16% are already engaged in Proof of Concepts or pilots—which means 44% are taking tangible action. These banks are doing the ground work now so that they will have the right product-market fit and expertise when the regulatory environment is clarified. Payments Tops the List of Digital Asset Use Cases for U. S. Banks at 36% Banks have a choice of services and solutions they can build to monetize digital assets. Top of the list at 36% was payments, comprising merchant settlement, B2B cross-border transactions, and internal treasury management. This enthusiasm around payments also reflects the fact that stablecoins are gaining traction as a medium for exchange and settlement. Stablecoins introduce new efficiencies into bank operations and... --- ### Expanding Access to Solana: Bringing More Volume On-Chain with Native Integrations > Fireblocks boosts Solana adoption with Native Program Calls, Gasless Transactions & Tokenization for secure, efficient scaling. - Published: 2025-04-02 - Modified: 2025-04-02 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/expanding-access-to-solana-bringing-more-volume-on-chain-with-native-integrations/ - Categories: Product & Platform Updates - Tags: DeFi, Tokenization, Wallets The institutional adoption of Solana is accelerating at an unprecedented pace, driven by its unmatched speed, efficiency, and scalability. . Its growing adoption by financial institutions and Web3 developers highlights its efficiency in real-time payments and tokenization. However, challenges remain in securely managing transactions, gas fees, and token operations. Fireblocks is addressing these pain points by introducing three critical capabilities—Native Program Calls, Gasless Transactions, and Tokenization—that enhance security, efficiency, and usability for businesses operating on Solana. Fireblocks' Solution: A Future-Proof Platform for Secure Solana Transactions Fireblocks is committed to providing enterprises with robust, future-proof solutions tailored to the rapidly evolving blockchain industry. While much of the industry faced significant delays, Fireblocks' ability to handle a 1,000% increase in Solana traffic with no issues or customer impact. To reinforce our commitment to meeting the growing demand on Solana and staying ahead of the curve, we are introducing Native Program Calls and expanding access to Gasless Transactions and the Tokenization Engine. These advancements ensure that businesses can fully leverage Solana’s capabilities with greater efficiency and security. The Features: Enhancing Security and Efficiency on Solana Native Program Calls: Reliable, Secure, and Transparent Transaction Execution The Challenge Historically, enterprises using Fireblocks and Solana smart contracts had to rely on third-party solutions that introduced inefficiencies, security vulnerabilities, and a lack of transparency. These limitations hindered the ability of institutions to maintain full control over their transactions. The Solution Fireblocks now has Native Program Call support enabling: Decoded transactions for increased transparency, ensuring institutions have full... --- ### Policy Implications from the Rise of State-Sponsored Crypto Crime > Japan's crypto security evolves post-Bybit hack. Explore custody, AML, & policy shifts at FinTech Week. - Published: 2025-03-28 - Modified: 2025-05-19 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/policy-implications-from-the-rise-of-state-sponsored-crypto-crime/ - Categories: Expert Commentary, Industry Insights, Knowledge Base - Tags: Compliance, Off-Exchange, Security Supporting Japan FinTech Week has become a Fireblocks tradition. This March, we, as many in the ecosystem, chose to re-contextualize planned contributions and engagements as the week-long Tokyo event was the first significant global gathering of both regulators and industry after the Bybit hack.   Across no less than eight public presentations, and many more thought-provoking client and industry friends conversations, team Fireblocks is grateful to have found ourselves in the right place, at the right time on a matter so close to our origins.   Digital Assets Innovation vs. Security in Japan  Each year, FinTech Week comes with a pro-innovation political statement, but until 2025 Tokyo has been slow in scaling institutional crypto adoption. Japan does have 29 licensed crypto exchanges regulated by the Japan Financial Services Agency (JFSA), and a stablecoin law since 2021. Yet no bank has issued a stablecoin in Japan. This is changing. In time for FinTech Week, an update to the Payment Services Act was submitted to ease stablecoin reserve requirements for Trust Banks. In parallel, crypto gains are to be taxed at 20%, down from 55%.   Many on the market expect that - like in other matters of innovation – once the Japanese industry and regulators commit to digital assets, they will outcompete other markets.   This pattern is what made Japan a purveyor of cutting-edge technology, renowned for its innovations in electronics, robotics and in the automotive industry, with the likes of Sony and Toyota now household names globally.   Japan’s... --- ### Fireblocks' New Developer APIs: Build on Blockchain Without Complexity > Build faster on blockchain with Fireblocks' new APIs—simplifying asset data, staking, and network access for developers. - Published: 2025-03-27 - Modified: 2025-05-19 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/fireblocks-new-developer-apis-build-on-blockchain-without-complexity/ - Categories: Product & Platform Updates - Tags: Treasury Management, Wallets Blockchain innovation is accelerating, offering new opportunities for developers to create secure applications. However, integrating blockchain infrastructure is getting increasingly complex. With more fragmentation, developers often have to juggle multiple tools, workarounds, and technical intricacies to manage network data, retrieve asset properties, and execute transactions effectively. This slows down innovation, increases operational overhead, and diverts focus from building great products. At Fireblocks, we believe developers should spend their time creating, not troubleshooting blockchain intricacies. That’s why we’re excited to introduce a powerful new suite of APIs that streamline blockchain interactions, making it faster and easier to develop and deploy blockchain-powered applications. With these new APIs, developers can focus on what they do best—building innovative solutions—while Fireblocks handles the complexity of blockchain infrastructure. Introducing Fireblocks’ New Developer APIs Our latest release includes a robust set of APIs designed to abstract complexity, improve reliability, and enhance scalability for blockchain developers. Whether you’re managing assets, retrieving blockchain data, or integrating staking functionality, Fireblocks’ APIs provide a seamless way to interact with blockchain networks.

Key Benefits: Expanded asset properties deliver deeper insights, allowing developers to access more detailed data about assets. 4x Faster data retrieval improves application performance by accelerating the response time for asset-related queries. Support for pagination and... --- ### Disaster Recovery Services: A New Standard for Digital Asset Security > Ensure your digital assets stay secure with Fireblocks’ Disaster Recovery Services—industry-leading protection for crypto institutions. - Published: 2025-03-21 - Modified: 2025-03-26 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/disaster-recovery-services-new-standard-digital-asset-security/ - Categories: Expert Commentary, Industry Insights - Tags: Security It's common for many organizations to postpone establishing a robust Disaster Recovery Program until after their product is already in the market. While development and operational builds are critical for launching an outstanding product, disaster recovery planning often gets sidelined. However, it's increasingly important for institutions to prioritize the safekeeping of private key materials, which are crucial for accessing and managing digital assets. Their loss or compromise can have severe consequences. As the saying goes, "not your keys, not your crypto," which instills fear in those who hear it. Therefore, addressing disaster recovery early is crucial to ensure your operations can withstand any disruptions. The Importance of a Robust Disaster Recovery Plan A robust disaster recovery plan is essential for several reasons: Financial Protection: Minimize potential financial loss by ensuring key materials are quickly restored after unexpected events. Reputation Management: Demonstrate your commitment to security and protect your clients' assets to maintain your reputation. Regulatory Compliance: Stay ahead by complying with regulations that require disaster recovery plans, avoiding fines and other penalties. Business continuity: Ensure that your business remains fully operational even in the face of unexpected disruptions. Fireblocks' Proactive Approach to Disaster Recovery Fireblocks understands the importance of disaster recovery in safeguarding digital assets and ensuring business continuity. As a leader in our industry, Fireblocks recognizes this critical need which is why we are proactively offering disaster recovery as a standard feature for all customers. We believe in the importance of establishing DRS as an industry standard as it... --- ### What’s Next for Banks Entering Crypto? Navigating The Risks  > Banks entering crypto face regulatory challenges. Learn how to navigate risks and seize opportunities ahead. - Published: 2025-03-13 - Modified: 2025-03-13 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/whats-next-for-banks-entering-crypto-navigating-the-risks/ - Categories: Expert Commentary, Industry Insights - Tags: Best Practice, Digital Asset Custody The evolving regulatory landscape surrounding digital assets presents a host of challenges for banks looking to enter the crypto space. While recent decisions have helped clear a path for banks to engage in crypto-assets and related activities, the regulatory environment remains fragmented, with federal and state authorities offering varying levels of clarity and approval processes. Federal regulators, in particular, have taken a self-described “careful and cautious” approach, leaving a significant gap with respect to more prescriptive guidance for banks and financial institutions that want to integrate digital assets into their offerings in a safe and sound manner.   Accordingly, as federal legislation quickly takes shape and we see new market entrants from traditional financial services, it will be critical to highlight operational and risk management nuances that make digital assets activities different from typical banking activities. And absent alignment between federal and state regulators, achieving a cohesive framework for managing cryptocurrency-related risks remains an uphill battle. The Dual Banking System: The Root of Regulatory Fragmentation The structure of the U. S. banking system adds another layer of complexity. The U. S. operates under a dual banking system, where both federally-chartered and state-chartered banks exist side by side, each governed by its respective regulatory bodies. To simplify, the U. S. Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) oversees national banks, while state-level authorities manage state-chartered banks alongside federal counterparts such as the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC). The regulatory landscape mirrors this division, with states like New York and Wyoming... --- ### Security First Approach to EIP-7702 > Adopt a security-first approach to EIP-7702 to mitigate risks, protect funds, and ensure safe wallet operations. - Published: 2025-03-12 - Modified: 2025-03-12 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/security-first-approach-to-eip-7702/ - Categories: Expert Commentary, Industry Insights - Tags: Wallets EIP-7702 comes with a lot of promise for better UX, better onboarding, retail adoption, cheaper wallet operations and many more great features. The hype is real and is justified. However, it does come with a tradeoff between new capabilities and risk.   The recent ByBit hack showed the consequences of inadvertently delegating control to a malicious actor.   Without proper security in 7702-enabled wallet operations, organizations are taking the risk of malicious actors leveraging unclear signatures or misunderstanding of the technology. Even when done consciously and intentionally, delegating your wallet to a smart contract potentially exposes organizations to a new class of code vulnerabilities that were not on their risk radar before. Let’s explore the risks themselves and a security first approach to getting value from EIP-7702 while limiting the risk exposure. A new signature that can cost you everything EIP-7702 introduces a new “authorization tuple signature”. It creates a code delegation that can be used to take over accounts when used incorrectly. The first thing that wallets need to do is make sure that they are aware and handling (limiting) the new signature type properly to protect the less tech savvy clients from accidental damage. A reckless approach would strive to allow as open and free delegations as possible, but that is likely to end very fast with losing all funds. A single malicious delegation is all that is needed. It’s very hard to impossible to audit a delegated contract on demand. A security oriented approach would limit the... --- ### OCC Interpretive Letter 1183: Why an Obscure Agency Letter Matters More than the Bitcoin Strategic Reserve > OCC's new interpretive letter expands crypto activities for banks, offering clarity on digital asset engagement. - Published: 2025-03-10 - Modified: 2025-03-10 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/occ-interpretive-letter-1183-implications-crypto-banking-clarity/ - Categories: Expert Commentary, Industry Insights - Tags: Best Practice, Stablecoins On March 7, amid media focus on the first-ever White House Crypto Summit, the U. S. ’s primary national bank regulator, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC), quietly issued an interpretive letter that could have significant implications for how national banks engage with digital assets.   OCC Interpretive Letter 1183 (Addressing Certain Crypto-Asset Activities) signals a marked departure from the previous Administration’s stance on the legality of national banks’ engaging with digital assets. This letter provides clarity that banks have been waiting for—institutions now have additional certainty around what they can and cannot do. Specifically, it reaffirms the first Trump Administration’s stance on permitting cryptocurrency custody, stablecoin networks, and certain operations related to payments. By removing supervisory pre-approvals—previously a major roadblock—the letter simplifies the process by which banks can start to engage with digital assets in a production environment. However, these new permissible activities also introduce new risks for banks. Financial institutions, along with their supervisors, must now reassess their roadmaps to ensure they are prepared to address important issues—like digital asset security—that threaten the safety and soundness of institutions without well-designed and implemented risk management systems.   Models for what “good” looks like exist, such as those in place for institutions overseen by the New York Department of Financial Services (NYDFS), which specifically address crypto-related risks, vulnerabilities, and required controls. Yet even these models will need further tailoring and responsiveness to address novel activities, from digital asset custody and stablecoins to asset tokenization, which will increasingly... --- ### Announcing the Launch of the COR Compliance Package: Stay Ahead of DORA Regulations > Ensure DORA compliance with Fireblocks' Cyber & Operational Resilience (COR) package for FIs & CASPs. - Published: 2025-03-05 - Modified: 2025-03-06 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/fireblocks-cor-compliance-package-stay-ahead-of-dora-regulations/ - Categories: Company News & Updates, Industry Insights - Tags: Best Practice, Compliance Starting this year, financial institutions (FIs) and crypto-asset service providers (CASPs) in the EU are now required to ensure compliance with complex frameworks that protect digital infrastructure and financial services. Today, we're excited to announce the launch of our Cyber and Operational Resilience (COR) Compliance Package, designed specifically to help FIs meet the European Union's Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA) obligations which came into force in the EU on January 17, 2025. The Motivation Behind the COR Compliance Package DORA mandates that banks, financial institutions, and crypto asset service providers (CASPs) strengthen their cybersecurity and operational resilience. The Fireblocks COR Compliance Package simplifies this complex regulatory landscape, allowing organizations to focus on growth and innovation while maintaining compliance. The regulators have made it clear what you need to do and how you implement it under DORA, so having a proactive solution from Fireblocks that we can implement knowing that it’s been built by experts saves us time, resources, and gives us confidence in our ability to meet DORA obligations as we continue to work with Fireblocks. Cato AustedCTOFiri The COR Compliance Package was designed specifically for institutions that designate Fireblocks as a Third-Party ICT Provider supporting a critical or important function and was developed to streamline the path to regulatory alignment. Key features include a dedicated legal addendum, annual and periodic reports, an advanced ICT security kit, and an annual security pooled audit event —helping institutions meet compliance requirements with greater efficiency while strengthening operational resilience. As we’ve seen recently,... --- ### Fireblocks x AWS: A Blueprint For Tokenized Asset Deployment and Management > Explore how Fireblocks and AWS define a scalable, efficient solution for real-world asset tokenization. - Published: 2025-03-05 - Modified: 2025-03-05 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/fireblocks-x-aws-a-blueprint-for-tokenized-asset-deployment-and-management/ - Categories: Company News & Updates, Industry Insights - Tags: Partnerships and Integrations, Tokenization The real-world asset tokenization market is projected to reach $200 billion by 2030, underscoring the enormous potential in this space. However, bringing digital assets to market presents non-trivial considerations and a need for infrastructure providers and software vendors to collectively fulfill functional and non-functional tokenization platform requirements. Fireblocks and AWS have partnered to define a conceptual solution architecture that illustrates the implementation of a tokenization platform built with Fireblocks and AWS technology. The proposed solution is a blueprint for digital asset management, defined at a level that allows for organic integration into existing infrastructure, whilst taking advantage of operational patterns that could yield significant speed to market value. The solution exemplifies how an architecture consisting of managed AWS services, custom cloud-native applications, on-premise systems, and the Fireblocks platform can be integrated to enable key aspects of a tokenization platform. The proposed architecture minimizes the need for complex, specialized applications to create and manage tokens on a distributed ledger that would otherwise have to be custom-built. Instead, it shows how businesses can leverage AWS-managed services in combination with the specialized tokenization and digital asset custody capabilities of Fireblocks.   By harnessing modern technologies and best practices, this approach not only demonstrates the feasibility of asset tokenization but also highlights its potential to enhance efficiency, transparency, and accessibility in today’s digital asset economy. As businesses continue to explore the possibilities of blockchain, this architecture serves as a solid foundation for more complex and scalable tokenization solutions in the future.

The latest Fireblocks report, The New Frontier of Crypto Security, explores the most pressing threats institutions face today and outlines proactive measures to protect assets in this evolving landscape. Why Traditional Security Isn’t Enough The crypto landscape is at an inflection point. With Blockchain’s Bitcoin ETFs gaining regulatory traction, Real-World Asset (RWA) tokenization accelerating, and stablecoin payments becoming mainstream, institutional adoption is surging. But so are complex new attack vectors—from AI-powered phishing and API exploits to insider threats and multi-chain vulnerabilities. These attacks are not about any one exchange or custodian—they underscore a systemic need for stronger, more adaptive security measures across the entire digital asset ecosystem. The industry must take collective action to safeguard infrastructure, strengthen access controls, and stay ahead of evolving threats. At Fireblocks, we're committed to providing the security architecture that helps institutions protect their assets, their users, and the broader market. Shahar MadarVP of Security & Trust ProductsFireblocks The Biggest Institutional Security Gaps 1. Centralized Exchanges and Retail Applications: Prime Targets Centralized exchanges (CEXs) and retail platforms hold billions of dollars in assets, making them prime targets for attackers. Cybercriminals are leveraging sophisticated methods such as phishing, social engineering, and insider manipulation to exploit vulnerabilities. Recent state-sponsored attacks, including the Bybit attack, have resulted in losses surpassing a billion dollars. As these platforms continue to grow, they remain a primary focus for attackers... --- ### 7702’s Superpowers: What Makes EIP-7702 Great > EIP-7702 empowers users with flexible, future-proof, and gradual adoption of smart contracts without disruption. - Published: 2025-02-28 - Modified: 2025-02-28 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/7702s-superpowers-what-makes-eip-7702-great/ - Categories: Expert Commentary, Industry Insights - Tags: Protocol and Token Support EIP-7702 is powerful because of all of the small boring things that make up a good technology and a good product. Backwards Compatible For years everyone tries to convince us that EOAs are bad and yet, when asked, most smart contract developers admit they actually use an EOA, some even admit they like their EOA. Ethereum was built for EOAs and undoing that is not a simple process - and users don’t want to be forced into an alternative and they are actually voting with their wallets at this point. When someone tries to convince you that you don’t need your EOA he is actually saying: Don’t do cheap transactions, pay extra, always. Stop using some of your favorite dApps that you can’t use without EOA Give up on the ability to sign personal messages, even if they are useful Move all of your tokens to a new address, even if it’s very expensive to do Give up on your Soulbound Tokens that can’t be moved Liquidate all of your long-term positions, regardless of tax implications or financial damage Forgo your on-chain provable reputation and give up the financial benefits that come with it in airdrops Drop all of your battle tested security practices, you need to relearn and retest everything And to the dApps they are saying: Remember how we said that you can be immutable? We were not very serious about it - your app will not work for all the users that choose our latest hyped technology.... --- ### Scale On-chain Transactions with Confidence: Introducing Gasless Transactions  > Discover how Fireblocks' gasless transactions simplify on-chain scaling and drive seamless growth. - Published: 2025-02-27 - Modified: 2025-02-27 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/scale-on-chain-transactions-with-fireblocks-gasless-transactions/ - Categories: Product & Platform Updates - Tags: Tokenization, Treasury Management The future of digital assets is built on efficiency, scalability, and seamless operations. As businesses continue to bring more digital asset solutions to market and serve more customers, operational complexity—particularly around gas management—remains a critical challenge. Today, we’re excited to introduce new capabilities that Fireblocks has designed to reduce friction and enable businesses to scale on-chain transactions with confidence. Overcoming the Bottleneck of Gas Management Digital asset transactions require gas fees to complete a transfer, but managing gas can be a bottleneck for growth and puts a heavy burden on digital asset treasury operations. Businesses have to constantly monitor if they have enough gas balances in all their accounts, purchase gas tokens, distribute gas to accounts, manage bridging and more - all of which takes up time. It also means that there is added friction when a business is trying to provide digital asset solutions to their retail or business customers.   For regulated financial institutions, there’s an added regulatory barrier when it comes to gas. Many jurisdictions do not allow certain types of entities, including stablecoin issuers, to hold base assets on their balance sheets. Without a workaround to manage gas fees, minting and deploying a stablecoin will be impossible. Simplifying Gas Management for Unstoppable Growth With Fireblocks Gasless Transactions, our customers—and their customers—can eliminate this friction entirely. By designating a Fireblocks vault as a gas relay or linking to a third-party gas relay, businesses can streamline gas funding across their operations without manual intervention. This means: No more... --- ### Understanding Hong Kong’s Virtual Asset Trading Platform Licensing: A Strategic Overview > Learn about Hong Kong's VASP licensing, compliance requirements, and how Fireblocks helps ensure security. - Published: 2025-02-27 - Modified: 2025-04-23 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/hong-kong-virtual-asset-trading-platform-licensing-strategic-overview/ - Categories: Expert Commentary - Tags: Best Practice, Digital Asset Custody The Securities and Futures Commission (SFC) is the body that regulates Hong Kong's securities and futures markets. In recent years, the SFC has been placing an increasing focus on regulatory requirements for digital assets, especially for crypto-native firms and already regulated capital market participants. A key regulatory change occurred in June 2023 when the SFC introduced a licensing regime for Virtual Asset Trading Platforms (VATPs). This licensing system requires crypto exchanges, brokers, and custodians serving Hong Kong-based customers to meet compliance standards covering aspects such as anti-money laundering (AML) transaction monitoring, custody standards, and more. As of February 2025, nine entities have been granted a Hong Kong Virtual Asset Service Provider (VASP) license, with the first one issued to a Fireblocks customer. Key Implications of VASP Licensing The introduction of the licensing regime has significant implications for market participants, especially in terms of compliance and regulatory obligations. Licensing Requirements Traditional financial institutions (TFIs) and virtual asset service providers (VASPs) are now required to be licensed by the SFC. The key aspects of the licensing regime include: Asset Safeguarding: Licensed platforms must adopt strict standards for custody, ensuring that assets are safe from fraud or theft. Know-Your-Client (KYC) and AML: Platforms must implement KYC processes, comply with AML standards, run enhanced due diligence (EDD) for high-risk clients, and conduct transaction monitoring. Market Integrity: The SFC requires platforms to avoid conflicts of interest, prevent market manipulation, and ensure fair trading practices. Ongoing Compliance: Licensed VASPs must maintain continuous compliance with ongoing reporting... --- ### The Flaw in “Secure” Systems: How Bybit’s Attack Exploited Blind Trust > Discover how the Bybit attack revealed critical flaws in "secure" systems and exploited blind trust for devastating consequences. - Published: 2025-02-26 - Modified: 2025-03-26 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/bybit-attack-security-flaws-fireblocks-nation-state-resilient-solutions/ - Categories: Expert Commentary, Industry Insights - Tags: Best Practice, Security, Wallets Bybit’s recent attack has exposed a critical flaw in how many exchanges approach security. The real-time transaction manipulation that took place wasn’t just an unfortunate event—it was a direct consequence of mispurposed security architectures that sophisticated attackers are all too ready to exploit. The attack combined blind signing vulnerabilities on Ledger devices with highly-targeted malicious UI manipulation made possible by a compromise of a Safe{Wallet} developer machine, effectively deceiving users into approving malicious transactions. It didn’t have to happen. With nation-state-sponsored groups like Lazarus continually evolving, enterprises must shift their security mindset to proactive, nation-state-resilient infrastructure.   What Happened? A security model is only as strong as its weakest link. In Bybit’s case, two seemingly secure solutions—Ledger and Safe{Wallet}—merged to create a dangerous vulnerability. The attack exploited a standard hardware wallet and multisig wallet UI configuration that is inadequate for today’s enterprise and advanced threat needs.   1. UI Manipulation in Safe{Wallet} The attacker compromised a Safe{Wallet} developer machine, used it to access the production environment, targeting Bybit’s account  Using that access, the attacker remotely modified Safe{Wallet}’s UI and injected a malicious Javascript code to alter Bybit’s Safe{Wallet} UI. The malicious code targeted Bybit’s wallet, and was designed to act only on two specific wallets. Users saw a legitimate transaction on-screen but were unknowingly approving a manipulated transaction at the protocol level Once signed, the transaction replaced the smart contract wallet’s logic, to DPRK-deployed code allowing them to control the funds That control was then used to empty the entire... --- ### Show Me the Money. The Velocity of Money.  > Stablecoins are transforming global payments by boosting transaction speed and driving business growth. - Published: 2025-02-26 - Modified: 2025-02-27 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/show-me-the-money-the-velocity-of-money/ - Categories: Expert Commentary - Tags: Payments Stablecoins are redefining how money moves People talk about stablecoins all the time these days, and no wonder; their market cap just reached $200B, there is a new administration in the US discussing three(! ) stablecoin bills, the Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) regulation was rolled out in the EU last year, making it one of the first major jurisdictions to put into effect a clear, unified crypto framework; and payments companies, banks, and fintechs are publicly expressing their interest in integrating crypto into their offerings (or as we say, finally joining our camp). However, the one thing that sticks out more than anything in my conversations with customers is where the true value of using stablecoins lies. One might think the true value is the cost (spoiler: it’s not really cheaper, not most of the time at least) or the transparency (there are other transparent methods out there). So, let me make the case for what I believe (and witness) is the true benefit: the velocity.   Let’s break this down, starting with the basics. More capital roundtrips = more profit Most, if not all, businesses are limited by their balance sheets to conduct their day-to-day business routines. This is especially true for payment companies, obviously, as they are dependent on their balance sheet to fund and pre-fund their partners or accounts globally. When we add the banking rails into this equation, it adds a level of difficulty, as the operating hours are challenging, and FX can sometimes make costs... --- ### Bybit Hacked: A Call to Action for Exchanges to Embrace Off-Exchange Settlement > Learn how the Bybit hack highlights the need for exchanges to adopt off-exchange settlements and strengthen security measures. - Published: 2025-02-21 - Modified: 2025-03-26 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/bybit-hack-exposes-risks-why-off-exchange-settlement-is-essential-for-exchanges/ - Categories: Expert Commentary - Tags: Off-Exchange Another major crypto exchange has fallen victim to a hack—this time, Bybit. While the full impact is still unfolding, one thing remains undeniable: storing assets in exchange wallets exposes traders to unnecessary risks. In today's market, this risk is increasingly unnecessary and manageable, particularly with solutions like off exchange settlement. This incident, like others before it, highlights the Achilles' heel of centralized platforms. Institutions, especially those trading at scale, require a more secure and reliable way to participate in the market without the worry of exchange hacks, insolvencies, or —as we’ve seen infamously in the past—mismanagement. Fireblocks Off Exchange Settlement offers precisely that solution. In Bybit’s case, who have Off Exchange enabled by Fireblocks, funds were safe from the hack and settlements with the exchange were made uninterrupted as intended. Why Off-Exchange Settlement is Essential for Exchanges Fireblocks Off Exchange Settlement revolutionizes how traders interact with exchanges. It eliminates the need to pre-fund exchange accounts or store assets in exchange-controlled wallets. Instead, funds are securely held in a segregated collateral account, mirrored 1:1 on the exchange. This can be managed directly by clients through their own Fireblocks account or via a Fireblocks-enabled regulated custodian ensuring: Mitigated Counterparty Risk: Assets remain in the client's custody (either directly or with a regulated custodian), effectively shielding them from exchange-related risks like hacks, fraud, and business failures. On-Chain Transparency: By avoiding pooled funds, off exchange settlement significantly reduces exposure to mismanagement, commingling, or insolvency. Increased Trading Volumes: Instant trading credit and reduced risk translate... --- ### 3 Examples of Tokenization Initiatives Reshaping Financial Markets > Discover 3 of the most prominent tokenization use cases, and how the tokenization of digital assets is impacting the cryptocurrency landscape. - Published: 2025-02-20 - Modified: 2025-02-20 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/3-tokenization-use-cases-reshaping-financial-markets/ - Categories: Industry Insights, Knowledge Base - Tags: Tokenization Tokenization, or the process by which assets are converted into tokens that can be moved, stored, or recorded on a blockchain, enables a transparent, well-governed financial system. It empowers interested participants to utilize financial services and access capital markets with ease and efficiency. We’re currently seeing active examples of tokenization projects across multiple asset classes, such as commodities, debt securities, equity securities, and real estate.   Their place in the digital asset marketplace has grown to a size that has not gone unnoticed by investors, retail and institutional alike. In this blog post, we’ll walk you through three of the most prominent examples of tokenization initiatives, and explore their impact on the digital asset landscape, including:  Paxos Digital Gold Token (PAXG) Overstock. com STO (Digital Dividend) DBS Bank Singapore’s Tokenized Bond Tokenization Project 1: Paxos Gold Digital Token (PAXG) Paxos Gold Digital Token (PAXG) is an asset-backed digital token approved and regulated by the New York State Department of Financial Services, with a total market capitalization of $327 million. The token has seen a steady increase in market capitalization since it was initially issued in September 2019. As a collateralized stablecoin, PAXG requires the purchase of physical gold to back the issuance of new tokens, and is therefore limited to Paxos’ ability to maintain its supply of gold to meet demand for PAXG. On average, PAXG daily trading volume has been approximately 4. 8% of market capitalization, while GLD daily trading volume has been approximately 2. 5%.   The higher... --- ### Decrypting WalletConnect Messages: A Guide for Developers > Explore how Fireblocks integrates with WalletConnect to debug and decrypt messages between wallets & dApps. - Published: 2025-02-20 - Modified: 2025-02-20 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/decrypting-walletconnect-messages-a-guide-for-developers-2/ - Categories: For Developers - Tags: Wallets Decentralised Finance (DeFi) is redefining the utility of financial services by opening up access to lending, trading, and yield generating without relying on traditional intermediaries. To execute on DeFi strategies, seamless wallet connectivity is essential. To make this possible, Fireblocks has integrated with WalletConnect. In this blog, we’ll outline how the team has approached investigating issues related to WalletConnect sessions. About WalletConnect WalletConnect is an open-source protocol that allows for secure connections between digital asset wallets and dApps. Fireblocks customers can connect their vault accounts to thousands of dApps across dozens of blockchains via WalletConnect. The wallet can be a mobile application, a browser application, or an application server (cloud wallet). How the WalletConnect handshake works A wallet and a dApp that are connected to each other via WalletConnect can send messages back and forth via a Relay Network, a publish-subscribe network that routes messages between clients subscribed to a Relay Server (in this case, the server is managed by Reown, previously WalletConnect). The wallet and dApp communicate with the Relay Server via JSON-RPC, which is documented here. When the wallet and dApp connect, two key data items are chosen. One is an identifier called a pairing topic, and the other is a symmetric key used to encrypt and decrypt subsequent messages. This is done to ensure a secure connection between the wallet and dApp, denying the WalletConnect relay server awareness of the contents of the messages it transmits. Decrypting WalletConnect messages At Fireblocks, one of the ways we enable... --- ### Fireblocks Celebrates 5th Year on the Forbes Fintech 50 > Fireblocks celebrates its 5th year on the Forbes Fintech 50, driving innovation in digital asset security. - Published: 2025-02-19 - Modified: 2025-03-14 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/fireblocks-celebrates-5th-year-on-the-forbes-fintech-50/ - Categories: Company News & Updates - Tags: Digital Asset Custody We’re proud to announce that Fireblocks has been named to the Forbes Fintech 50 for the fifth year in a row.

Fireblocks is powering many of these innovative use cases. - Published: 2025-02-15 - Modified: 2025-02-20 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/the-tokenization-revolution-transforming-financial-markets/ - Categories: Industry Insights, Knowledge Base - Tags: Best Practice, Tokenization In the ever-evolving landscape of global finance, a new paradigm is emerging that promises to reshape assets, investments, and financial transactions at a fundamental level. Welcome to the era of tokenization. The perfect storm for tokenization We're currently witnessing a convergence of factors that are creating the ideal foundation for broader adoption of tokenization. For one, regulatory bodies worldwide are stepping up, issuing and implementing policies that create much-needed guardrails for this innovative space. Simultaneously, mature and credible regulated players are entering the tokenization space, building trust and expanding the ecosystem. This influx of established institutions is complemented by the opening of new markets, creating a larger and more diverse tokenization landscape. Trusted financial entities like Blackrock, Templeton, Goldman Sachs, ABN Amro, and Bancolombia are making significant moves in the tokenization space. Their involvement is fostering a deeper sense of trust among investors and retail customers alike, encouraging broader participation in tokenized assets. As these global regulated institutions continue to embrace tokenization, we're seeing a ripple effect of increased confidence throughout the financial sector. Let's dive into four key areas where tokenization is making a significant impact with financial use cases: tokenized money and stablecoins, tokenized fund products, tokenized securities, and tokenized real-world assets. Tokenized money and stablecoins Tokenized money, particularly in the form of stablecoins, is gaining significant traction, especially in regions grappling with strong capital controls and currency volatility. The appeal of stablecoins lies in their ability to offer 24/7 clearing and settlement, enhanced controls through smart contracts,... --- ### 3 Workflows to Accelerate Crypto Treasury Operations > Last month we officially rolled out the Fireblocks Network, the first and only digital asset transfer network for institutions. The Network adds a new layer of security and efficiency to digital asset movement, enabling members to find, connect, and settle with the largest financial institutions instantly and securely – all while remaining on-chain. - Published: 2025-02-15 - Modified: 2025-02-15 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/accelerate-digital-asset-treasury-operations/ - Categories: Knowledge Base, Product & Platform Updates - Tags: Treasury Management Last month we officially rolled out the Fireblocks Network, the first and only digital asset transfer network for institutions. The Network adds a new layer of security and efficiency to digital asset movement, enabling members to find, connect, and settle with the largest financial institutions instantly and securely – all while remaining on-chain. How did it work before? Before the Fireblocks Network, transferring digital assets between two counterparties required managing deposit address vulnerabilities, whitelisting deposit addresses for every asset that each counterparty wanted to trade – as well as performing test transfers to ensure security and accuracy. How does it work now? Now you can store and manage digital assets from one platform, connecting to trading venues, liquidity pools, and counterparties for instant settlement. The Fireblocks Network completely streamlines and secures the transfer of digital assets between counterparties and exchanges through: Automatic deposit address authentication Automatic deposit address rotation Deposit address management What can I do on the Fireblocks Network?

Here’s how cross border crypto payments will add value to international transfers. - Published: 2025-02-15 - Modified: 2025-02-20 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/are-cross-border-payments-ripe-for-disruption/ - Categories: Knowledge Base - Tags: Payments If you’ve ever had to pay someone who lives overseas, you’re probably aware of the wide variety of problems that can come with international payments.   The traditional correspondent banking model results in high fees for both FX and transaction costs, along with settlement times that can range from 1-5 days. These inefficiencies can significantly impact end users which can be migrant workers sending money back home, small businesses paying international suppliers, and large corporates managing global liquidity. Digital assets are an emerging currency class that have the potential to change the game for international payments. While there is some regulatory uncertainty surrounding how digital assets function in the global economy, the value of cross border crypto payments is undeniable. So, can digital assets overcome their growing pains and disrupt international payments for good? We think so – and here’s why. Digital assets enable real-time transfers Digital assets can take many forms, including natively digital assets such as BTC and ETH or tokenized assets such as stablecoins and other traditional assets.   Tokenized currencies such as USDC and USDP allow you to reap the benefits of a traditional cash payment, like value stability, while leveraging the benefits of blockchain technology like real-time settlement, visibility, and transparency. No matter what kind of asset you’re using, digital assets have the potential to disrupt the traditional model by enabling the real-time transfer of value. When utilizing digital assets to pay someone across the globe, transactions can be made directly between two parties, removing intermediaries... --- ### Fireblocks Integrates Soneium to Seamlessly Connect Creators and Fans > Fireblocks enables Soneium blockchain with secure embedded wallets, API automation, and treasury management for safe digital experiences. - Published: 2025-02-12 - Modified: 2025-02-12 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/soneium-fireblocks-enables-blockchain-with-secure-embedded-wallets/ - Categories: For Developers, Product & Platform Updates - Tags: Partnerships and Integrations, Protocol and Token Support We are excited to announce an integration with Soneium, the Ethereum Layer-2 blockchain built by Sony Block Solutions Labs, a joint venture between Sony Group Corporation and Startale Group.

Underpinning these regulatory developments will be a transition from governments around the world seeing digital assets as merely a risk, to more and more governments viewing digital asset adoption as an important aspect of staying competitive. The momentum being generated in the US is poised to kick-start that change.   Let’s look at these in turn, starting from the macro trend.   Digital asset policy shifts from protect to compete Crypto competitiveness is not new, but in 2025 it will be on the rise. Forward-thinking Central Banks like those in Brazil and Singapore, as well as authorities like those across the UAE, have been making the transition from risk-mitigators to market enablers. The change in intent in the US, however, will accelerate this trend. We hear from clients and public policy stakeholders around the world how nations are beginning to debate fostering domestic digital asset champions... --- ### 1,000% More Traffic, 10x More Speed—How Fireblocks Weathered Solana’s Ultimate Stress Test > Solana Network Surge: How Fireblocks Cut Transaction Times by 97% and Achieved 100% Success Rate with Infrastructure Upgrades - Published: 2025-02-05 - Modified: 2025-03-26 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/fireblocks-solana-network-performance-optimization/ - Categories: Company News & Updates, Industry Insights - Tags: Protocol and Token Support, Tokenization, Wallets The crypto world saw a seismic shift two weeks ago when President Trump and Melania Trump launched their meme coins on Solana. Almost overnight, Solana experienced an unprecedented surge in transaction volume, pushing infrastructure across the ecosystem to its limits. Fireblocks was right at the center of it. At the peak, we saw a 1,000% increase in Solana traffic. Every company operating in the space felt the pressure—transaction delays were rampant, leaving users frustrated. Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong acknowledged the situation on X, admitting that the scale of the volume was unforeseeable and their team was working tirelessly to scale their Solana infrastructure to address the resulting backlog. Yet as backlogs grew, some users were waiting hours to complete their transactions.   At this exact time, Fireblocks’ engineering team went into overdrive, executing massive technical improvements—dramatically improving transaction throughput, slashing delays, and ultimately fortifying the system against future surges. What started as an industry-wide bottleneck became an opportunity to push the limits of scalability. This wasn’t just a fix—it was a foundational improvement that will allow institutions to confidently scale their digital asset operations on Solana moving forward. Here’s what’s most important: when it mattered for Solana's unprecedented traffic surge, Fireblocks achieved breakthrough performance improvements, slashing broadcasting time from 1. 5 seconds to 47 milliseconds while reaching 100% first-attempt transaction success. The platform also reduced median transaction processing time to 6 seconds and cut fees to under $0. 01 per transfer. The Ultimate Challenge: Where Pressure Breeds Scale During the... --- ### What is Berachain and Proof of Liquidity? > Berachain introduces Proof of Liquidity, a novel blockchain consensus mechanism that incentivizes DeFi activity and network security. - Published: 2025-02-04 - Modified: 2025-02-10 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/what-is-berachain-and-proof-of-liquidity/ - Categories: Product & Platform Updates - Tags: DeFi, Digital Asset Custody, Partnerships and Integrations, Tokenization Berachain is a novel blockchain created to solve consensus mechanism incentive misalignment. For traditional Proof of Stake (PoS) blockchains, users have to lock their assets in order to participate in the security model and earn staking rewards. This results in incentive misalignment as the projects building on these blockchains want activity and volumes – this competes with the native security mechanism of staking which requires assets to be locked up. In an efficient market, users are less likely to use the financial applications built on the blockchain if they can earn more, with less risk, by staking. Berachain aims to solve this with their consensus mechanism, Proof of Liquidity (PoL). PoL is an extension of PoS with restructured incentives mechanisms to incentivize DeFi activity over asset lockup, while simultaneously adding security and decentralization to the network.   Use Cases and Incentive Mechanisms Berachain is launching with three native assets; $BERA, $BGT, and $HONEY, which can collectively enable opportunities for Berachain participants. BERA is the gas token, BGT is the governance token (which is non-transferable and can be redeemed 1:1 for BERA), and HONEY is the native stablecoin. In traditional PoS, validators earn rewards directly emitted by the blockchain as they validate transactions, and delegators to these validators will also earn a percentage of total rewards based on how much they stake. In Berachain the validators earn BGT, but where Berachain differs is validators have to direct most of the BGT to an application’s reward vault rather than to themselves (validators... --- ### Ushering in a New Era in Crypto: Removing the Barriers for TradFi Adoption in the United States > The repeal of SAB 121 unlocks new opportunities for banks to custody digital assets. Learn how Fireblocks partners with top regulated banks to scale digital asset use cases. - Published: 2025-01-29 - Modified: 2025-01-30 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/ushering-in-a-new-era-in-crypto-removing-the-barriers-for-tradfi-adoption-in-the-united-states/ - Categories: Industry Insights - Tags: Digital Asset Custody, Payments, Tokenization An Inflection Point for Crypto & Digital Assets As we see the initial post-election changes in the US (recent Executive Orders and SAB 121 repeal), the opportunity for banks and financial institutions in the US, and globally, to execute on blockchain initiatives evaluated over the past few years has never been higher. Specifically, with the repeal of SAB 121, institutions now have a clear pathway to custody digital assets for their clients. This shift is transformative. In the digital asset ecosystem, custody – and the digital asset wallet – plays a critical role, allowing security to be separated from control seamlessly. By enabling banks to safeguard digital assets, this change unlocks new possibilities for innovative products and services, empowering institutions to meet growing client demand like never before. Whether looking at institutional custody solutions like BNY Mellon, delivering retail products and services like Nubank, Tokenizing assets like BlackRock or engaging in crypto capital markets like Galaxy, Fireblocks has been engaging in markets across the globe to deliver and scale digital asset businesses with clients in over 100 countries. This has given us industry-leading experience working with some of the most complex regulatory regimes including the United States, Brazil, Australia, Brazil, Europe, Germany, Switzerland, Singapore and Hong Kong. With the regulatory and policy environment changing rapidly and creating a clearer path for US institutions to finally enter the industry, these tailwinds in 2025 will be the inflection point to drive the convergence between blockchain and traditional financial markets. Driving Business Value... --- ### The Repeal of SAB 121: A New Chapter for U.S. Leadership in Crypto > Discover how the repeal of SAB 121 unlocks new opportunities for blockchain and crypto innovation in U.S. finance. - Published: 2025-01-27 - Modified: 2025-01-27 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/the-repeal-of-sab-121-a-new-chapter-for-u-s-leadership-in-crypto/ - Categories: Industry Insights - Tags: Digital Asset Custody The recent repeal of Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 121 (SAB 121) and Executive Order on digital financial technology represent a watershed moment for the U. S. financial system and its relationship with digital assets. This decision by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) removes a significant barrier to the adoption of blockchain technology by public companies and financial institutions. More broadly, the Trump Administration’s EO signals a marked departure in the federal government's approach to digital innovation and digital assets adoption. However, although these initial policy shifts are promising, they are just the first steps on a longer journey toward unlocking the full potential of digital assets and blockchain technologies. What Was SAB 121, and Why Was Its Repeal Necessary? First introduced in March 2022, SAB 121 required financial institutions holding crypto assets on behalf of their clients to record these holdings as liabilities on their balance sheets. This obligation created significant economic disincentives for banks to engage in digital asset services, such as custody, and stymied the adoption of blockchain technology in traditional finance. With the repeal of SAB 121, banks now have an opportunity to explore innovative use cases—from custody solutions to real-world asset tokenization and stablecoin issuance—without the fear of inflated balance sheet liabilities. Opportunities Ahead: A Promising Yet Challenging Roadmap Although the repeal of SAB 121 is a critical regulatory milestone, it is the first of many policy changes required to realize the United States’s vision of becoming a global leader in blockchain innovation.

It is estimated that the potential value of tokenized assets will reach about $16 trillion by 2030. As tokenization gains traction in capital markets and regulated, on-chain money becomes increasingly prevalent, the potential for tokenized securities to generate significant value for investors and reshape the future of finance is undeniable.   In 2024, we added the Tokeny ‘T-REX’ smart contract suite to enhance our marketplace of smart contracts on the Fireblocks platform. This integration with Tokeny offers clients the ability to securely deploy ERC-3643 tokens, directly from their Fireblocks workspace, with the Tokenization Engine and allows issuers to perform token operations on the deployed tokens through the Fireblocks Console, two functions that were previously limited to the Tokeny “Factory” and “Servicing” modules for issuers or agents. This does not impact how investors utilize Tokeny services: investors are still able to access the “Onboard,” “Investor Portal,” and “Billboard” modules through the T-REX Platform, but investors who use Fireblocks can rest assured that all transactions can be signed securely via Fireblocks.   Working with Fireblocks and Tokeny, we have been successful with the issuance of tokenized bonds and the custody of digital assets; as a result, ABN AMRO became the first Dutch Bank to issue bonds that help raise capital for corporate clients and pioneered tokenization in corporate banking.

Today, these evolutions are being mirrored in the digital asset markets, where institutional-grade exchanges and ECNs are emerging as disruptors to incumbent exchanges. Crypto exchanges: centralized, vertically integrated models Crypto trading began primarily on centralized exchanges (CEXs), where exchanges serve multiple roles: price discovery, order matching, and custody of user funds. While convenient, this vertically integrated model raises several risks. The most prominent risk in CEXs is the conflict of interest between trading and custody. Because exchanges hold user funds, they can use these assets for their own purposes, such as funding proprietary trading activities or lending them out in lending markets. Users often have no visibility into how their funds are used, creating significant counterparty risk. This model has led to several high-profile exchange collapses and liquidity crises, eroding trust in CEXs. The requirement for pre-funding trades further complicates matters. In CEXs, users must transfer assets into the exchange before trading, tying up capital and creating inefficiencies. If a user wishes to move assets between exchanges to arbitrage price differences, the time taken to transfer funds can result in missed trading opportunities. The emergence of institutional ECNs Electronic Communication Networks (ECNs) allow participants to trade... --- ### Fireblock’s Off Exchange Mitigates Counterparty Risk and Promotes Transparency > Fireblocks Off Exchange uses MPC tech to mitigate counterparty risk, ensuring secure, transparent trades. - Published: 2025-01-14 - Modified: 2025-02-13 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/fireblocks-off-exchange-counterparty-risk-transparency/ - Categories: Industry Insights, Product & Platform Updates - Tags: Off-Exchange Fireblocks Off Exchange leverages MPC technology to enable traders to allocate and mirror assets directly to an exchange from a wallet they mutually control, protecting their principal from hacks, bankruptcy, and fraud, while providing centralized exchanges with complete on-chain transparency that client accounts are fully collateralized. Off Exchange is launching with support for Deribit, with HTX, ByBit, OKX, Gate. io, BIT, OneTrading, Coinhako, Bitget, and additional global exchanges being added in the coming months.   Understanding exchange counterparty risk Exchange counterparty risk takes various forms, including cyber hacks, bankruptcy, commingled accounts, and misappropriation of client funds, as evidenced by the FTX incident. These risks stem from the unique structure of the crypto trading market, where exchanges play the role of both a custodian and trading venue. The outsized counterparty risks have restricted the capital that trading firms deploy on exchanges, and prevented traditional firms from entering the crypto market altogether.   To counter this risk, operations teams have traditionally implemented time-consuming processes to monitor exposure and constantly sweep excess exchange margins to protect their businesses. But these processes only manage exposure, as they cannot fully mitigate the risk that their funds are commingled at an exchange. This trading model is also adverse to exchanges, as institutions reduce capital to maintain risk limits.   Delivering the first true Off Exchange solution Existing off-exchange solutions attempt to solve exchange counterparty risk by pooling traders assets in a custodial account, which are then mirrored to an exchange account where they’re made available for... --- ### Ethereum ETF & Staking: Should Investors Buy Spot or ETF? > Exploring Ethereum ETFs, staking rewards, and the evolving landscape of crypto investment strategies in 2024. - Published: 2024-12-12 - Modified: 2025-04-22 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/ethereum-etf-staking-should-investors-buy-spot-or-etf/ - Categories: Expert Commentary, Industry Insights - Tags: Digital Asset Custody, Protocol and Token Support, Treasury Management In 2019, only 1 of the top 20 blockchains by market capitalization was a Proof of Stake blockchain (Tezos), with a total value staked of around $50 million. Today, 16 of the top 20 blockchains are Proof of Stake (excl. Bitcoin, Dogecoin, Bitcoin Classic, and Litecoin), with a total market cap of around $850 billion; representing about 22% of the total market cap of all cryptocurrencies. Without BTC, PoS would represent 50%. If this trend is to continue, staking will serve an increasingly important role in both securing blockchains and delivering value to market participants.   2024 has also seen the global acceleration of publicly traded crypto ETFs, with Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs notably receiving approval from the U. S. SEC. As a Proof of Stake blockchain, Ethereum can offer unique value to ETF issuers and holders, but also poses new regulatory hurdles, and operational and risk considerations. What considerations should you take when staking ETH? There is clear market demand for ETH on its own, but with staking as a native mechanism to secure the Ethereum blockchain while simultaneously rewarding stakers with yield, any ETH investment product that does not include staking is likely falling short. Today in the U. S. , there are many ETH ETFs, but none of them include staking due to the SEC pushing back on all ETH ETF S-1s that initially proposed staking. This is not the case in other jurisdictions; Switzerland, Canada, and others have approved staking for the underlying ETH, primarily for... --- ### Fireblocks Launches Japan Office to Support Growing Institutional Adoption of Blockchain > Fireblocks opens Tokyo office, expanding digital asset solutions in Japan's rapidly growing blockchain market. - Published: 2024-12-11 - Modified: 2025-03-25 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/fireblocks-launches-japan-office-support-institutional-adoption-blockchain/ - Categories: Company News & Updates - Tags: Web3 We are excited to announce that Fireblocks has strengthened its presence in the Asia-Pacific region by establishing a regional office in Tokyo, Japan.

Programability, auditability, swift settlement times, self-custody options, and interoperability are factors leading to their increasing adoption by payment companies across international borders. Goldi introduced the concept of a "stablecoin sandwich," a process of exchanging fiat currency to stablecoins and back, making global money transactions faster and more accessible. This innovative approach is changing the way we transfer money, taking minutes rather than days. Meanwhile, Plecas detailed Visa's significant role as a commercializer of fiat payments with blockchain technology. Establishing a bridge between new blockchain technologies and its vast existing network of merchants and financial institutions, Visa has been at the digital frontier. Furthermore, through Visa Direct, clients can receive fiat currency payouts to their Visa accounts. Plecas emphasized the expanding adoption of stablecoins and their potential to overhaul current money movement solutions – from remittance to cross-border payments. He cited a report highlighting substantial usage and positive attitudes toward stablecoins in emerging markets.

Shaulov made the comments on Tuesday at the company’s third annual SPARK conference in Barcelona, where he told delegates that the digital asset industry is preparing for a "fairly significant” transformation next year as a more crypto-friendly government and regulatory attitude is expected to prevail. Stablecoins are already on a tear. In 2024, the share of stablecoins versus other cryptocurrencies grew significantly, and about half of the $3tn worth of transactions handled by the Fireblocks Network in the last year consisted of stablecoins, Shaulov said in his keynote address, adding that the Network processes around 10% of transactions in the almost$200bn stablecoin market. He also noted that payments were the fastest-growing segment for Fireblocks, with activity concentrating on cross-border business-to-business transactions.   We are going to see a fairly significant transformation with the anticipated 180-degree shift in the US regulatory environment, including a reversal of Operation Chokepoint 2. 0 and the anticipated stablecoin bill getting passed. This will drive significant growth in the adoption of stablecoins in the global economy. Michael ShaulovCEO & Co-FounderFireblocks The stablecoin space has seen significant growth this year, with its market capitalization up by 60% since the start of January. Tether, the largest stablecoin by market cap, has led the surge with a 50% growth in... --- ### Fireblocks Expands DeFi Suite As Institutional Adoption of Digital Assets Drives $60 Billion Transactions in 2024   > Fireblocks expands DeFi suite with Swaps, Allowance Manager, and Key Link to boost institutional digital asset security - Published: 2024-12-04 - Modified: 2024-12-04 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/fireblocks-defi-suite-institutional-digital-asset-security-2024/ - Categories: Company News & Updates, Product & Platform Updates - Tags: DeFi, Digital Asset Custody, Security Fireblocks is excited to announce the expansion of our suite for decentralized finance (DeFi) and security capabilities at our annual user conference, SPARK.

It also means that internal and external compliance requirements are growing more complex to manage as digital asset businesses consider expansion strategies and the need to streamline operational plans. Digital asset businesses often have a variety of existing solutions, and overhauling this infrastructure is costly and complex. Institutions need a way to integrate these solutions seamlessly while ensuring operational efficiency, security, compliance, and scalability. To address these challenges, Fireblocks introduced Key Link, a solution that bridges the gap between compliance and business acceleration. The problem: managing complex digital asset infrastructure without losing momentum For regulated institutions, managing digital assets comes with unique challenges: Limitations on existing solutions: As the digital asset space evolves, enhancing legacy wallet infrastructure becomes costly and time-consuming, increasing the total cost of ownership (TCO).

Comprehensive guide covering security, risks, and platform selection for both individual and institutional investors. - Published: 2024-11-18 - Modified: 2024-11-20 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/crypto-staking-platforms/ - Categories: Industry Insights, Knowledge Base - Tags: Staking Crypto staking platforms empower investors to earn passive income through participating in blockchain networks. In recent years, these platforms have evolved from simple validator nodes to sophisticated financial infrastructure, processing billions in staked assets. This shift represents a fundamental change in the cryptocurrency landscape as it moves from pure speculation to productive asset utilization. As digital asset staking becomes increasingly mainstream, understanding how these platforms work, the various types available, and associated risks is crucial for both individual and institutional investors. The market has witnessed exponential growth, with total staked assets across major networks exceeding $100 billion, highlighting the significant role staking now plays in the broader crypto ecosystem. This growth has been driven by several factors: the transition of major networks like Ethereum to Proof of Stake, increasing awareness of staking as a passive income strategy, and the development of user-friendly platforms that make staking more accessible. This rapid expansion brings both opportunities and challenges. For individual investors, staking offers a way to earn yields that often surpass traditional financial instruments, while actively contributing to network security. Institutional investors see staking as a strategic opportunity to generate returns on their digital asset holdings while potentially benefiting from token appreciation. Yet the technical complexity, varying reward structures, and evolving regulatory landscape create a nuanced environment that requires careful navigation. The democratization of staking through various platforms has removed many traditional barriers to entry, but it has also introduced new considerations around custody, security, and risk management. As the industry matures,... --- ### Scaling the Distribution and Trading of Tokenized Assets on the Fireblocks Network > Alongside Ownera, Fireblocks is enabling the trading and distribution of tokenized securities on the Fireblocks Network.

Trump’s win, along with over 250 pro-crypto candidates securing seats in Congress compared to 115 anti-crypto candidates, makes the outlook for crypto markets even brighter. Here’s why. Boosting progress for stablecoins The stability, transparency, and accessibility that stablecoins provide have already begun reshaping the financial landscape—not just in the U. S. but globally.   The election saw over 75% of pro-crypto Senate candidates winning, a promising sign of the regulatory clarity that could lead to widespread stablecoin adoption. Bipartisan support for stablecoin regulation is a positive signal for the stablecoin bill likely to pass soon. We see high potential for regulatory reform that could solidify stablecoins as a critical financial instrument.   The right steps could establish a clear regulatory framework for stablecoin custody and classification, giving banks, fintech, and consumers more confidence in engaging with these products and helping secure their role in building a more inclusive financial system. This framework aligns with Washington’s renewed commitment to economic growth and innovation, and its progress will be essential to keeping the U. S. competitive.

Many conversations at the event underscored certain key trends that are rapidly shaping the payments landscape. The shift in the types of conversations around stablecoins happening today is undeniable – the question has moved beyond “Why stablecoins? ” to “How do we do this today? ”  Here are three major takeaways from this year’s event: A new era for stablecoins in payments: from explaining the basics to showcasing solutions At Money 20/20, it became clear that conversations that once centered around explaining what stablecoins are have shifted; today, we’re diving into discussions on what is needed to build blockchain payments solutions. The reason is clear – the foundation is ready and the domino effect is moving quickly.   Regulations are clearer in many jurisdictions, which signals that there’s a solid foundation for banks to bank payment companies and merchants who touch digital assets in their payment flows with confidence. This then means that companies can now off-ramp stablecoins and cryptocurrencies more efficiently, therefore accelerating demand and their ability to build services to support more businesses. Industry validation: Stripe’s $1 billion bet on blockchain Another proof point for this conversational shift is Stripe, who have provided validation of blockchain’s long-term role in payments.

Fireblocks is ready for this transition, and we’ve been helping our clients prepare for the new digital asset regulations in recent months as the deadlines approach. But what will the rules mean for the industry, and what are the key requirements that regulators in the EU want to see? What is DORA and why is it happening? DORA is a new set of EU regulations that officially come into force on January 17th 2025. DORA looks to introduce significantly higher standards for managing information and communication technology (ICT) as regulators aim to strengthen operational resilience at companies that are part of the global financial market infrastructure.   DORA has significant implications for firms operating throughout the digital asset ecosystem, whether they are licensed crypto-asset service providers (like custodians) or traditional regulated financial institutions. The importance of digital operational resilience and protecting against cyberattacks, along with the attendant reputational risks, has always been important for these companies. DORA now provides a more expansive set of regulations aimed at ensuring enhanced protections for the European financial system, harmonized across the twenty-seven member states. As firms are heavily reliant on communications technology, including technology supplied by third party partners, DORA aims to ensure that companies are ready and prepared... --- ### SCB 10X Launches Programmable Stablecoin with Fireblocks Custodial Wallet Infrastructure > SCB 10X launches Rubie Wallet, a USDC-THBX stablecoin payment app for Devcon 2024 attendees, powered by Fireblocks Wallets-as-a-Service. Enabling seamless QR payments and eliminating FX fees. - Published: 2024-11-11 - Modified: 2024-11-11 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/scb-10x-launches-programmable-stablecoin-with-fireblocks-custodial-wallet-infrastructure/ - Categories: Industry Insights - Tags: Payments, Wallets SCB 10X, the disruptive technology investment and innovation arm of SCBX Group, has launched Rubie Wallet, a digital wallet application designed to facilitate seamless QR payments using USDC and THBX (Thai Baht Stablecoin). Its key activation will be for foreign visitors attending DevCon 2024 in Bangkok. The stablecoin was developed in collaboration with Elliptic, Circle, Base, SCB, and InnovestX, with Fireblocks providing Wallets-as-Service infrastructure for the platform. The Rubie Wallet showcases Purpose-Bound Money’s (PBM) practical applications, simplifying the payment process for international attendees by eliminating the need for traditional currency exchanges. Developed under the regulatory framework of the Bank of Thailand (BOT) and the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the Rubie Wallet offers a secure, efficient payment solution. About Rubie Wallet The PBM initiative will run from November 5-25, 2024, with key activations during DevCon (Nov 12-15). DevCon attendees will be able to use the Rubie Wallet to convert USDC into Thai Baht Stablecoin (THBX) in real time, offering a faster, cost effective alternative to traditional currency exchanges. The project is secured with Fireblocks Wallets-as-a-Service infrastructure. Purpose-Bound Money with THBX, Thailand’s first programmable stablecoin, addresses challenges such as inconvenience from carrying cash and changes, long queues at FX kiosks, and higher transaction fees from FX risks when using credit cards by enabling seamless stablecoin payments through USDC-to-THBX conversions and secure mobile QR payment transactions.   “At SCB 10X, we believe that participating in the Bank of Thailand & Thai SEC’s regulatory sandbox will be a significant move for financial innovation,... --- ### MPC vs. Multi-sig > Multi-sig and MPC are the two most common technologies for securing digital asset private keys. Which option is better for your organization? - Published: 2024-11-01 - Modified: 2025-03-08 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/mpc-vs-multi-sig/ - Categories: Knowledge Base - Tags: Wallets With the rapidly increasing institutional adoption of digital assets, financial organizations need secure and efficient ways to scale and operate to capitalize on growing demand. Today, multi-sig and MPC are two of the most common technologies for securing private keys. You may be wondering – which is a better option for my organization? In this blog post, we'll walk you through everything you need to know about both technologies so you can get a better sense of which fits your organization's needs. The multi-sig challenge Multi-sig (multi-signature) is a digital signing process that enables two or more users to sign transactions as a group.   Before multi-sig wallets entered the mainstream, cryptocurrencies were generally stored using a single private key. Whoever had access to the private key itself was able to access the funds associated with that key. Multi-sig added an additional layer of security to the equation by creating wallets that require the signature from multiple keys. While multi-sig offers potential solutions to some of the problems of single-signature wallets, it also introduces new issues. This is because when multi-sig was first introduced in 2012, the blockchain space was different in a variety of ways. For example, bitcoin was the only cryptocurrency, so the concept of creating a security technology that would work across multiple blockchains was irrelevant. In today’s fast-paced digital asset landscape, multi-sig-based solutions can no longer support the needs of a digital asset business because: Multi-sig is not protocol agnostic Not all cryptocurrency protocols support multi-sig... --- ### Borderless.xyz Integrates with Fireblocks to Enhance Secure Fiat-to-Crypto Payment Infrastructure > Fireblocks partners with Borderless.xyz to enable secure fiat-to-crypto payment infrastructure, enabling businesses to seamlessly connect traditional and digital asset transactions through integrated on/off-ramp solutions. - Published: 2024-11-01 - Modified: 2025-01-03 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/borderless-integrates-with-fireblocks-to-enhance-secure-fiat-to-crypto-payment-infrastructure/ - Categories: Company News & Updates - Tags: Compliance, Partnerships and Integrations, Payments, Security Fireblocks, an easy-to-use platform to manage all digital asset operations and build innovative businesses on the blockchain, is working with payments solution Borderless. xyz to create the next generation of fiat-to-crypto rails.

Our goal was to mitigate the manual, repetitive, time-consuming, and error-prone blockchain payment and crypto trading operations that were hindering businesses from easily scaling their operations as they expanded across geographies and add new product offerings. Digital asset operations are inherently complex, requiring support for businesses that operate in a 24/7/365 industry. These operations need to be responsive to both predictable processes and unexpected market changes. However, manual reactions can be slow or significantly delayed if events occur outside of business hours, impacting working capital, risk management, and money flows. Manual operations inevitably lead to human errors, resulting in not only failed operations but also additional time spent rectifying mistakes. Exciting progress and launch We're thrilled to announce that after close collaboration with industry design partners to fine-tune features and functionality, Fireblocks Automation is now available to all Fireblocks customers to add to their Fireblocks package.

Learn what makes the African market so special for crypto, and where the space is poised to go in the coming years. - Published: 2024-10-21 - Modified: 2024-10-22 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/why-institutional-adoption-of-digital-assets-is-skyrocketing-in-africa/ - Categories: Expert Commentary, Industry Insights - Tags: Digital Asset Custody Crypto adoption is remarkably high in Africa. According to the Chainalysis Crypto Adoption Report, several of the world’s leading countries for crypto adoption are African, with Nigeria taking the #2 highest rank overall. This is largely due to social and economic drivers across the continent, with digital assets offering a variety of benefits for African investors – such as protection against inflation, affordable cross-border transactions, and overall stronger financial access and inclusion. While retail adoption of crypto is well-established in Africa, institutional adoption is just now beginning to accelerate. Even governments are beginning to launch CBDC projects, signaling a new era of digital asset adoption beyond the retail sector in Africa. What makes Africa unique within the digital asset space? Retail clients in Africa have already found that USDT and USDC are good ways to protect their savings against factors like hyperinflation; now, financial institutions are investing in crypto as a hedge against FX risks. In unstable economies, cryptocurrencies can help preserve wealth when local currencies devalue rapidly. At the same time, crypto can boost financial inclusion by providing access to digital wallets and DeFi platforms for those who lack a traditional banking option. The high level of retail participation in the African market has led to better market infrastructure, such as improved trading platforms and regulatory frameworks – making digital assets more secure and more appealing for institutions. Recent developments, like the approval of Spot Bitcoin ETFs, show that institutional interest is growing in response to retail demand. Retail... --- ### Addressing counterparty risk and unlocking new opportunities with Fireblocks’ Off Exchange > Fireblocks takes a technology-first approach with Off Exchange, enabling exchanges to benefit from higher volumes of trading and direct line of sight into collateral at hand. - Published: 2024-10-16 - Modified: 2024-10-30 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/addressing-counterparty-risk-and-unlocking-new-opportunities-with-fireblocks-off-exchange/ - Categories: Industry Insights, Product & Platform Updates - Tags: Best Practice, Off-Exchange In recent years, the digital asset market has experienced both explosive growth and sobering setbacks. The collapse of FTX in November 2022 highlighted a significant vulnerability within the crypto ecosystem – the inherent counterparty risk that emerges when exchanges serve as both trading venues and custodians, roles traditionally held separately to protect market participants. When an exchange collapses, as FTX did, it jeopardizes not just its own operations, but the assets held by its users. As a result, traders reduced their trading volumes to minimize their exposure, while many institutions as well as new entrants were prevented from participating in exchange trading entirely. This risk-averse behavior has a direct impact on all exchanges. Trading volumes declined, which wouldn’t have happened if capital could be safely deployed. Building Fireblocks Off Exchange to address market vulnerabilities Recognising the limitations of existing off exchange solutions, which usually transfer risk from the exchange to a third party custodian, Fireblocks chose to develop the Off Exchange product. Fireblocks took a technology-first approach in developing this platform. Most off exchange models in the market rely on custodial accounts with pooled assets that are mirrored to an exchange account for trading. This reduces the direct exposure to the exchange, but it introduces a new risk – the custodian, which surfaces potential vulnerabilities, as some operate without a prudential license or lack adequate financial stability. Fireblocks is empowering properly regulated custodians and prime brokers as a part of its offering. Fireblocks Off Exchange enables trading firms to maintain... --- ### Fireblocks Deploys Hashnote’s USYC via Off Exchange > Fireblocks enables Hashnote's USYC as collateral on Deribit via Off Exchange. First regulated tokenized money market fund used as collateral on a major crypto derivatives exchange. - Published: 2024-10-15 - Modified: 2024-10-22 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/fireblocks-deploys-hashnotes-usyc-via-off-exchange/ - Categories: Product & Platform Updates - Tags: Off-Exchange, Partnerships and Integrations, Treasury Management Fireblocks now enables customers to use Hashnote’s regulated tokenized money market fund, US Yield Coin (USYC), as a collateral asset on Deribit through Fireblocks Off Exchange. This significant milestone marks the first time a major crypto derivatives exchange is supporting a regulated tokenized money market fund, and the first time this type of token is being used as collateral. USYC is a cross-collateral currency on Deribit. This means it can be used as collateral to trade derivative instruments regardless of the settlement currency. For example, USYC can be used as collateral to trade derivative instruments that are settled in BTC, ETH, or USDC. All Deribit traders can buy, sell, and hold USYC in their Deribit accounts, or hold it off the exchange in Fireblocks while still capturing yield, subject to Hashnote’s KYC. They can also transfer USYC on-chain to any address whitelisted with Hashnote. QCP Capital, the biggest market maker for USYC pairings, will also deploy capital via Fireblocks Off Exchange. Additionally, Fireblocks customers can hold USYC, transfer the asset via the Fireblocks Network, and interact with the Hashnote USYC smart contract to mint and redeem it. Enabling greater collateral flexibility Trading venues typically optimize their collateral strategies based on liquidity needs, risk assessment, and regulatory changes. As interest rates rise, market participants generally prefer to use non-cash collateral as the opportunity cost of holding cash increases. Allowing non-cash collateral increases the pool of available capital for trading venues. Tokenized money market funds, such as USYC, offer a new form... --- ### Fireblocks x Bitbond: Simple, Secure, and Scalable Tokenization for Institutions > Deploy, manage, and secure tokens using Bitbond smart contracts directly from your Fireblocks console. Experience a seamless integration for enhanced token operations and management. - Published: 2024-10-15 - Modified: 2024-10-22 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/fireblocks-x-bitbond-simple-secure-and-scalable-tokenization-for-institutions/ - Categories: Product & Platform Updates - Tags: Partnerships and Integrations, Tokenization Tokenization projects are making significant strides in financial markets, and beyond, by making financial and real world assets more accessible. As the market evolves, institutions require a secure and scalable solution that they can easily build and deploy. In September 2023, Fireblocks bolstered its tokenization capabilities with the acquisition of BlockFold, to provide a complete service layer of advisory, token customization, orchestration, and distribution. Recognizing the importance of trusted tokenization partners, Fireblocks also established an open tokenization marketplace to address differing requirements in a rapidly evolving market. One of our earliest tokenization partners to join the marketplace is Bitbond, a leading provider of enterprise tokenization technology that offers its services to banks, asset managers, and fintechs. Token Tool, Bitbond’s web3-based tokenization app, allows token creators to seamlessly issue, manage, and distribute tokens and NFTs across EVM-compatible blockchains. We’ve deepened our partnership to enable Fireblocks customers to deploy, manage, and secure tokens from Bitbond smart contracts directly from their Fireblocks console. This integration is testament to Fireblocks’ commitment to ensure that our customers benefit from having more options for how they approach smart contract mechanics to meet their unique requirements. Key benefits include: Access to Bitbond’s entire suite of smart contracts within Fireblocks Console: A new way to access, deploy and manage BitBond smart contracts, which adhere to open standards and have additional capabilities such as automated settlements, conditional payments, and more, eliminating the need for additional tools. Centralized control via Fireblocks: Consolidate tokenization operations by leveraging Fireblocks to securely deploy... --- ### Are Stablecoins the Future of Payments? > Fireblocks, PayPal, and Paxos got together to discuss advancements in the blockchain payments space and how stablecoins will transform payments. - Published: 2024-10-03 - Modified: 2025-05-15 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/are-stablecoins-the-future-of-payments/ - Categories: Expert Commentary, Industry Insights - Tags: Payments, Tokenization Your browser does not support the audio element. figure {margin: 0;} As digital currencies continue to gain traction, stablecoins are emerging as a promising solution to bridge the gap between traditional finance and the crypto world. In a recent industry discussion, Paul Bances, VP and Head of Market and Business Development, Blockchain, Crypto, and Digital Currencies at PayPal, Nick Robnett, Head of Asset Growth at Paxos, and Fireblocks SVP of Payments and Network Ran Goldi shared their insights on this rapidly evolving world – and the potential of stablecoins to revolutionize the payments industry. Where are stablecoins headed? The discussion, in an X Spaces session, focused on the rise of stablecoins has been nothing short of remarkable, with major players like PayPal launching their own digital currencies. PayPal's introduction of PYUSD in August 2023 marked a significant milestone in the company's broader digital currency strategy. This move reflected a growing belief in the industry that stablecoins – which offer benefits such as near-instant settlement, 24/7 availability, and programmability – represent the next evolution in payments and e-commerce. As Bances attested to in the discussion, PayPal's approach with PYUSD is rooted in providing optionality and choice to its users. The company aims to create a seamless ecosystem where customers can pay through traditional methods, cards, or digital currencies, depending on their preference. This flexibility extends to merchants as well, allowing them to accept various payment methods while potentially settling in their preferred currency. The potential use cases for stablecoins like PYUSD... --- ### Shaping the Future of Finance: Key Takeaways from TOKEN2049 Singapore > Discover key insights from TOKEN2049 Singapore, including the rise of stablecoins and RWA tokenization. Explore the future of crypto finance and request a demo now! - Published: 2024-09-26 - Modified: 2024-09-26 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/shaping-the-future-of-finance-key-takeaways-from-token2049-singapore/ - Categories: Industry Insights - Tags: Best Practice TOKEN2049 Singapore was a melting pot of global leaders and cutting-edge trends in the crypto space with over 20,000 visitors, 400 exhibitors, and 600 side events. Amid all of the expert discussions and industry thought leadership, I sat down to examine what I thought were the most important takeaways from the world’s biggest crypto event. Takeaway #1. Stablecoins will ‘eat the world’ If there's one thing that was crystal clear at TOKEN2049, it's that blockchain payments are rapidly moving from sporadic exploration to mass experimentation. I had the opportunity to participate in several panels and fireside chats with industry giants like PayPal, Galaxy, Shift4, and Mesh, as well as Visa at Solana Breakpoint. In addition, Fireblocks Senior Director of Banking and Asset Management, Neil Chopra, also spoke about setting a new industry standard for regulated stablecoin issuance with Chainlink at the Stablecoin Standard event, and Fireblocks CEO, Michael Shaulov, discussed tokenization shaping the future of finance on the TOKEN2049 Main Stage. The recurring theme? The unstoppable rise of stablecoins. The numbers don't lie. Visa's recent report revealed that in the first half of 2024 alone, stablecoins settled over $2. 6 trillion worth of value. It's not just about the numbers, though. Stablecoins offer significant advantages over existing payment systems, including native programmability, strong auditability, fast settlement, self-custody options, and seamless interoperability. From my discussions both on and off stage, it's evident that stablecoins are far from a passing fad. They're being used for everything from cross-border payments and remittances to... --- ### Fireblocks x Lido Institutional: Bringing Liquid Staking to the Fireblocks Network > Fireblocks integrates Lido, enabling customers to stake their ETH with Lido’s prominent liquid staking middleware for Ethereum. - Published: 2024-09-23 - Modified: 2024-10-21 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/fireblocks-x-lido-institutional-bringing-liquid-staking-to-the-fireblocks-network/ - Categories: Product & Platform Updates - Tags: Partnerships and Integrations In response to growing institutional demand, Fireblocks has launched an integration with Lido to provide easy and secure in-platform access to Lido’s liquid staking protocol and stETH token. Users can now stake their ETH, receive rewards, and use stETH for on-chain activities, including Fireblocks Off Exchange, which allows Fireblocks users to lock their stETH in a self-custodial collateral wallet to trade on exchanges like Deribit and Bybit. Liquid staking enables users to transfer and operationalize staked tokens without the firm requirements that lock up assets for stakers on the Ethereum network. It allows users to deposit tokens and receive tradable liquid tokens (stETH) in return, thereby unlocking the ability to receive staking rewards while maintaining liquidity and access to their assets. Liquid staking with Lido may be useful for institutional ETH holders and can provide the ability to stake without the requirement of maintaining complex staking infrastructure. While Ethereum direct-stakers must stake in increments of 32 ETH, liquid staking allows users to stake any amount of ETH, with the ability to access instant liquidity. This flexibility also benefits retail-facing exchanges and fintechs, whose end users might have less than 32 ETH but want to realize the benefits of ETH staking. Those with larger ETH positions can unlock capital efficiency through liquid staking, leveraging their staked ETH tokens (stETH) for on-chain activities. With the Lido integration, Fireblocks customers can stake their ETH without locking it up or having to maintain complex infrastructure – all while still participating in on-chain activities and... --- ### Solving the Crypto Trading and Operations Trilemma > Explore solutions to the crypto trading and operations trilemma, enhancing security, speed, and efficiency in digital asset management. - Published: 2024-09-11 - Modified: 2024-11-05 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/solving-the-crypto-trading-and-operations-trilemma/ - Categories: Industry Insights, Knowledge Base - Tags: Security, Transaction Policies, Treasury Management Download the "Solving the Crypto Trading and Operations Trilemma" cheat sheet The crypto trading and operations trilemma addresses three potentially complementary but opposing forces from an operations perspective – security, efficiency, and scalability. Security is the actual safety of your firm's own funds, or those it manages on behalf of clients. Efficiency is how quickly you can respond to market moves, transfer assets, and settle balances. Scalability is how easily you can grow your operations and team, adopting new strategies without compromising. Security Challenge: Malicious and non-malicious insiders How to solve Create a risk-based approach in distributing controls of transaction approvals, wallet creations, and administrative activities Differentiate between types of transactions (e. g. those to internal accounts vs external accounts) Challenge: People-based attacks (e. g. phishing, social engineering) How to solve Build good SecOps Rigorous training for personnel to recognize and combat phishing and social engineering attacks Split responsibility for transaction approvals, wallet creation, and admin among multiple independent parties with strong governance policies in play Challenge: Interacting with malicious dApps or smart contracts How to solve Engage in whitelisting smart contract addresses and creating policies that only allow insiders to work with those addresses Approval capping and removing approvals Utilize transaction simulation services to determine if you are interacting with a malicious contract Challenge: Counterparty risk How to balance Create good deposit address hygiene with your counterparties and ensure address whitelisting is occuring Frequently sweep funds from centralized exchanges Hold assets separate exchange’s control in order to distribute counterparty... --- ### Outlining the Crypto Trading and Operations Trilemma > The Crypto Trading and Operations Trilemma is the problem of finding the right balance between security, scalability and efficiency. - Published: 2024-09-11 - Modified: 2024-09-10 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/outlining-the-crypto-trading-and-operations-trilemma/ - Categories: Industry Insights, Knowledge Base - Tags: Security, Transaction Policies, Treasury Management The operational infrastructure for digital asset security has been continuously evolving – shifting from single-key hardware wallets, to multi-sig smart contract wallets, to MPC or HSM-powered wallets. This infrastructure improvement has created greater operational efficiency, enabling trading firms to deploy more capital without compromising on security. While the underlying wallet infrastructure options available have improved, there are still points of friction that can add both cost and time leading to missed opportunities. These primarily come from the trade-offs that need to be made from an operations perspective. Taking a page from Vitalik Buterin’s blockchain trilemma, Fireblocks calls this the Crypto Trading and Operations Trilemma. The Crypto Trading and Operations Trilemma addresses three potentially complementary but also opposing forces from an operations perspective – Security, Efficiency, and Scalability. Security pertains to the safety of your firm's own funds or those it manages on behalf of clients. Efficiency refers to how quickly you can respond to market moves, transfer assets, and settle. Scalability refers to how easily you can grow your operations and team or adopt new strategies. In this blog we will explore each element of the trilemma and list out the key issues to consider for each of them. You can read about how to approach solving the trilemma here. Part 1: Security As trading firms grow and expand their operations, they face the dual challenge of maintaining ironclad security while simultaneously ensuring efficiency and scalability. This balancing act becomes increasingly complex as firms add new team members, explore new... --- ### 4 Ways Exchanges Can Create a Competitive Advantage in Today’s Market > How can exchanges keep up with changing and increasingly competitive market conditions, user expectations and security needs? - Published: 2024-09-09 - Modified: 2024-09-09 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/4-ways-exchanges-can-create-a-competitive-advantage-in-todays-market/ - Categories: Knowledge Base - Tags: Compliance, Off-Exchange, Security, Transaction Policies, Treasury Management Download the "4 Ways Exchanges Can Create a Competitive Advantage in Today’s Market" cheat sheet As crypto markets continue to grow, there’s never been more competition for exchanges to grow their retail and institutional user bases. To create a competitive advantage against industry stalwarts (like Coinbase, Binance, or Gemini), exchanges must overcome key challenges that impact their ability to scale, offer differentiated products and services, and remain as secure as possible. Read on for a checklist for what your exchange can do to free up developer resources while innovating, improve user experiences, launch new products, and ensure you have a strong reputation for security.

To create a competitive advantage against industry stalwarts (like Coinbase, Binance, or Gemini), exchanges must overcome key challenges that impact their ability to scale, offer differentiated products & services, and remain as secure as possible. Read on for a checklist for what your exchange can do to free up developer resources while innovating, improve user experiences, launch new products, and ensure you have a strong reputation for security. In-house solutions can’t keep up with accelerated scaling Many exchanges may build an in-house wallet infrastructure when they begin operations. While this can serve their business needs for the initial phase of adoption, exchanges often experience a handful of challenges at various stages of scale, especially with the hyper-cyclical nature of crypto markets, which can create unanticipated bursts of onboarding and trading volume. The first challenge can often be deposit and withdrawal management – as exchanges need to quickly create deposit addresses for each customer. Most in-house systems struggle to keep up with this high volume of address creation and require manual management, resulting in a drain on development resources and impacting customer experience. The second challenge is keeping up with token and blockchain offerings. With thousands of available tokens, exchanges are often required to support a wide breadth of blockchains to create a differentiated and competitive offering. Each new blockchain requires significant development resources to integrate, creating an ongoing strain... --- ### Anatomy of a Centralized Exchanges Attack > Given the recent high profile exchange hacks that have taken place, we compiled a common list of attack vectors CEXs should be aware of and how to protect themselves. - Published: 2024-09-06 - Modified: 2024-10-26 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/anatomy-of-a-centralized-exchanges-attack/ - Categories: Industry Insights - Tags: Best Practice, Security, Transaction Policies Recently, there have been a number of attacks on high-profile centralized exchanges (CEXs) in the digital asset space. We feel it is critical to highlight some of the most common attack vectors in this area so that, in the future, CEXs can adequately protect themselves, their institutional trading partners, and their retail customers. To start, we wanted to clear up a common misconception – that the most common attack vector is a private key compromise. In post-hack coverage, this is often cited as the attack vector, especially in the absence of detail on the attack itself; this is often categorically false. An actual private key compromise is typically rare, and it's worth noting that an attacker can execute many malicious activities without having access to the private key itself, including stealing funds. In general, CEXs should have a full understanding of the entire exchange workflow as well as consistent internal ledger audits. It’s also important that they use only secure and battle-tested third-party applications with appropriate monitoring, set up strong access and approval policies, and utilize cold storage. In this piece, we will outline the most common attack vectors and how Fireblocks can help mitigate these risks Top attack vectors for CEX hacks Let’s explore some of the most relevant vectors for attacks on centralized exchanges. 1. People-based attacks People-based attacks are where an actual person is the source of compromise, either through human error or a malicious insider. There are two major groupings to people-based attacks: phishing/social engineering and... --- ### Key considerations for digital asset startups: Custody and beyond > Fireblocks’ suite of solutions for new businesses to get to market quickly, secure digital assets, manage treasury operations, connect to the largest pool of ecosystem participants, and more, all from one place. - Published: 2024-09-05 - Modified: 2024-09-09 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/key-considerations-for-digital-asset-startups-custody-and-beyond/ - Categories: Industry Insights, Knowledge Base, Product & Platform Updates - Tags: Treasury Management, Wallets Blockchain technology continues to grow in prominence, and as it expands, a wide range of businesses are looking to develop digital asset products. At the same time, many startups are launching with digital assets at the center of their businesses. If you are running a digital asset business or building a blockchain product, it’s important to consider what type of custody management solution will best support your business. Building for simplicity, security, and speed Some general considerations to take into account when choosing the right custody solution for your blockchain-based projects include: Brand Trust It’s important to work with a custodian or custody technology provider that you can rely on. Your investors are banking on your ability to ensure integrity, minimize risk, and ensure that funding you receive is used in the way it was intended. Any wallet infrastructure provider you work with needs to instill trust and increase investor confidence. You also need to have confidence that you’ve chosen a partner that will be there for years to come. We recommend working with a provider that has a long history of providing battle-tested infrastructure within the industry. Blockchain and token selection Are you focusing on building on or utilizing a specific blockchain, or will you be more blockchain agnostic? Keep in mind that as the world moves towards more blockchain interoperability, you will likely need wallet infrastructure that can support near-term and future use cases, chains, and tokens. Whatever you decide, it’s best to work with an infrastructure provider... --- ### A Peek Inside Fireblocks Tokenization Engine: The Backbone of Your Tokenization Solution > Fireblocks provides an end-to-end tokenization platform to securely mint, custody, distribute, and manage tokenized assets.

As a key global player in the digital asset space, Fireblocks, alongside leading organizations in the Swiss finance and technology ecosystem, will collaboratively develop and define standards relating to the tokenization of traditional financial instruments. Among these projects is the CMTA Token (CMTAT), an open standard for smart contracts designed specifically for the tokenization of financial instruments. It is a framework that defines necessary and optional functions that can be used for tokenizing equity and debt securities under Swiss law. Fireblocks has already worked extensively with the CMTAT on client engagements, and has integrated open source smart contracts into the Fireblocks Tokenization Engine, enabling businesses to deploy and manage the CMTA’s smart contracts directly from the Fireblocks platform. This makes it simple for participants in the tokenization value chain to seamlessly and securely work with products issued to the CMTA standards by other participants. The CMTAT is one of the token standards available in the Fireblocks Tokenization marketplace. Businesses can utilize it when creating their tokenization solution using the Fireblocks Tokenization Engine. Francois Schonken, Fireblocks’ Senior Director for Tokenization, also joins the CMTA Technical Committee, which is responsible for overseeing the technological aspects of its standardization projects. We are delighted to join the CMTA to... --- ### With Digital Assets, CISOs Must Prepare for a Blockchain Security Evolution > Explore how CISOs can adapt to the evolving blockchain security landscape and protect digital assets effectively. - Published: 2024-08-28 - Modified: 2024-11-05 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/with-digital-assets-cisos-must-prepare-for-a-blockchain-security-evolution/ - Categories: Expert Commentary, Industry Insights - Tags: Best Practice, Security The traditional financial industry is saddled with multiple pain points, and I predict that within 15 years, many financial and payment systems will be replaced by a wholesale shift to digital assets. Businesses want to achieve their goals by trading faster, conducting payments faster, cutting expenses, and doing it in a simpler and more secure way. I truly believe that digital assets will be a revolutionary force, because at the end of the day, if you want to work quickly and securely, with fewer parties taking their share along the way, that’s the way to go. For CISOs operating in the digital assets world, that means a paradigm shift. Information security in the world of digital assets Just like a regular enterprise CISO, digital assets require security controls and layers of defense. As we’ve seen over the years, the best defense against cybercriminals is a multi-layered one that can provide redundancy in the event that one of the security controls fails. Attack vectors can be similar, but you need strategies unique to blockchain – unlike in traditional banking, mistakes that happen on the blockchain are irreversible, and the damage can potentially be much more devastating. In the world of blockchain, your private key is your identity and access to the funds. That’s the “holy grail” you should always be looking to protect as a CISO. Protecting your Private Keys, verifying your Deposit Addresses and doing both with secured credentials and authentication is crucial. Once a key is stolen, it cannot... --- ### How MiCA Can Bring Much Needed Regulatory Clarity to the $152 Billion Stablecoin Market > Read more to learn how Markets in Crypto Assets Regulation (MiCA) regulations shape the future of crypto and stablecoins compliance. - Published: 2024-08-27 - Modified: 2025-05-15 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/how-mica-can-bring-much-needed-regulatory-clarity-to-the-152-billion-stablecoin-market/ - Categories: Expert Commentary, Industry Insights - Tags: Compliance Regulations are often a welcome signal toward market maturation, acceptance, and assurance for new technologies and financial practices. The European Commission’s “Markets in Crypto Assets Regulation” (MiCA) is no exception. A significant piece of legislation, MiCA has been heralded by some as the end of the “crypto wild west”, bringing crypto-assets, crypto-asset issuers, and crypto-asset service providers under a regulatory framework for the first time. With the first phase of these new rules now in effect (as of June 30th), and the remaining regulations set to come into force this December, MiCA marks a key milestone on the journey toward long-term crypto market stability, enhanced consumer protections, as well as a far more attractive investment environment for businesses. Exceptions to the rule While MiCA rightly omits certain facets of the crypto ecosystem from its initial framework, such as decentralized smart contracts and NFTs, the question remains whether stablecoins should have received the same treatment. MiCA introduced caps on issuance and transactions for certain USD-referenced “e-money” tokens, including USDC, USDT, and BUSD. The caps currently stand at 1 million transactions by volume, or 200 million euros by notional value, with the idea being that these non-EU stablecoin caps will encourage the use of euro-denominated stablecoins, rebalancing the market away from the dollar-denominated coins, and mitigating the risks posed by large-scale stablecoin adoption. While understandable from an EU perspective, this tactic feels like forcing a square peg through a round hole. To take a step back, the total global market capitalization for... --- ### Yellow Card Integrates Fireblocks to Streamline Cross-Border Transactions in Africa > Learn how Fireblocks Wallet-as-a-Service platform now supports Africa's leading stablecoin on/off ramp, Yellow Card. - Published: 2024-08-23 - Modified: 2024-09-09 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/yellow-card-integrates-fireblocks-to-streamline-cross-border-transactions-in-africa/ - Categories: Industry Insights - Tags: Digital Asset Custody, Payments, Wallets Fireblocks has launched support for Yellow Card, Africa's leading stablecoin on/off ramp, to improve cross-border transactions for both businesses and individuals. By integrating the Fireblocks digital asset infrastructure, Yellow Card seeks to remove obstacles for global corporate treasury in accessing African markets by offering secure and effective on-chain solutions.

However, cross-border payments are still encumbered by high costs, with low-value cross-border payments incurring steep fees,” said Ran Goldi, SVP Payments and Network at Fireblocks. “We are delighted to be working with Yellow Card to provide our direct custody wallets-as-a-service (WaaS), allowing them to secure their customers’ digital assets at scale. ” Together, Yellow Card and Fireblocks will tackle the complex challenges faced by multinational corporate treasuries such as regulatory compliance, currency volatility, and inefficient legacy banking systems. This marks a pivotal moment for both companies as they pave the way for more streamlined and secure financial operations across Africa. “We're excited to work with Fireblocks to enable real-world use cases for stablecoins, solving the complex challenges of international and... --- ### Fireblocks’ new Browser Extension simplifies on-chain experience > Securely and effortlessly access thousands of dApps across 30 EVM blockchains with Fireblocks’ new Browser Extension. - Published: 2024-08-12 - Modified: 2024-09-09 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/blog/fireblocks-new-browser-extension-simplifies-on-chain-experience/ - Categories: Product & Platform Updates - Tags: DeFi Today, we are excited to announce our enhanced Browser Extension, providing seamless connectivity to dApps on over 30 EVM blockchains – with the security of Fireblocks MPC-CMP, Governance and Policy Engine, and DeFi threat detection capabilities.

That’s why having a robust disaster recovery (DR) plan is a necessity for institutions in this space. Ensuring business continuity and safeguarding against potential disruptions is paramount when it comes to maintaining trust, integrity, and the seamless operation of services. Counterparty risk continues to be a primary concern for institutional digital asset investors. As self-custody is an increasingly favored option among sophisticated companies, organizations require trusted infrastructure for safeguarding assets against wallet provider interruptions and failures while also meeting complex security and regulatory needs. At Fireblocks, we’ve always believed that users should have total control of their own assets in order to further mitigate counterparty risk, and that includes choosing the method and location of how their assets are stored.

Users rely on it to move their funds swiftly and securely, whether they're making a purchase, sending money to a friend, or transferring assets to another account. When users deposit money into your crypto application, they expect to access and withdraw their funds easily whenever they need them. Imagine needing your money but being unable to access it quickly – that’s the frustration you need to avoid. Given the high stakes and urgency surrounding withdrawals, designing an efficient and secure withdrawal flow plays a significant role in any retail-facing, blockchain-based product. Crafting a withdrawal process that prioritizes speed, security, and user friendliness can significantly enhance the overall user experience – and help make your platform the go to choice in the competitive crypto market. To help you navigate the complexities of different blockchain models, we’ve outlined best practices for designing an efficient withdrawal flow. This discussion will cover UTXO-based and account-based assets, highlight potential challenges, and offer practical solutions. Additionally, we will address general best practices and security measures to help ensure a smooth and secure withdrawal process. UTXO-Based Assets Retail-facing businesses that handle UTXO-based assets (like BTC) on a large scale may risk significant financial loss when processing withdrawals inefficiently. With tens (or even hundreds) of thousands of users depositing BTC into their wallets, managing all these UTXOs can be very challenging. This requires a dedicated approach for both deposits and withdrawals.... --- --- ## Resources ### Navigating DORA Compliance for Third-Party ICT Vendors: A CISO's Guide with Fireblocks > Learn about DORA compliance for financial institutions, focusing on third-party risk management, operational resilience, and preparing for the 2025 deadline. - Published: 2025-03-05 - Modified: 2025-03-27 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/resources/navigating-dora-compliance-for-third-party-ict-vendors/ Converter Smart Contract CBDCs at the Heart of a Vibrant Digital Asset Ecosystem The uniformity of money is a simple concept that we often take for granted.

It’s also in response to rising regulatory requirements, including the proposal from the US Securities and Exchanges Commission for more stringent asset safeguarding requirements for registered investment advisors in February last year. To facilitate client access to asset safeguarding services, Fireblocks is also announcing its intention to launch a limited-purpose trust company that is under the regulation of the New York Department of Financial Services (NYDFS). Pending final regulatory approval, the Fireblocks Trust Company will offer cold storage custody solutions to US clients. “The global custodian landscape is evolving quickly, and... --- ### Fireblocks Builds Powerhouse C-Suite to Begin Onboarding Thousands of New Retail and Institutional Customers - Published: 2024-03-07 - Modified: 2025-03-08 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/press/fireblocks-builds-powerhouse-c-suite-to-begin-onboarding-thousands-of-new-retail-and-institutional-customers/ - Press Type: Press Releases New CMO appointment signals Fireblocks’ ambitions to ensure the onchain economy is underpinned and secured by non-custodial and decentralized technologies NEW YORK, NY – March 7, 2024 – Fireblocks, an enterprise platform for building blockchain applications and managing digital asset operations, announced today the strategic appointment of Michal Ferguson as the company’s new Chief Marketing Officer. Ferguson's appointment further solidifies Fireblocks' dedication to advancing the widespread adoption of non-custodial and counterparty-free-risk markets for both individual users and institutions. This appointment comes on the heels of key additions to the team, including Michael Levine from Payoneer (NASDAQ: PAYO) as Chief Financial Officer and Madan Gadde, formerly of FIS, as Chief Customer Officer. “The explosion of new innovations over the last six months has led to a ‘crypto renaissance’ that’s spreading like wildfire across financial and non-financial sectors,” Michael Shaulov, CEO of Fireblocks. " In welcoming Michal, the collective prowess of our leadership team drives us toward our goal of serving thousands of new businesses and equipping everyone with the tools they need to securely deliver new onchain apps, products and services at scale. ” High-profile exchange failures have fueled a surge in interest for solutions that mitigate counterparty risk. This trend is reflected in the growing popularity of self-custody wallets and counterparty-free, or decentralized, exchanges and lending markets. A 2023 report by Chainalysis revealed a significant rise in users adopting self-custody solutions, highlighting a preference for managing their own digital assets instead of relying on third-party custodians.

New York, September 11 — Today, Fireblocks, an enterprise platform to manage digital asset operations and build innovative businesses on the blockchain, expands its industry-leading wallet-as-a-service solution, with the launch of its non-custodial wallet-as-a-service (WaaS) offering built for brands, corporates, fintechs, and Web3 businesses. Fireblocks’ non-custodial wallets offer iOS, Android, and web browser support, enabled through the Fireblocks wallet SDK. Following the collapse of centralized entities like FTX, customers of fintechs and brands are demanding greater control over their own assets, especially in the event that a company goes under. These same fintechs and brands are looking to provide their users with access to DeFi, NFT applications, and native Web3 experiences. However, concerns around regulations, compliance, and security — such as users losing seed phrases or recent MPC vulnerabilities like BitForge — pose challenges to ensure user safety when scaling millions of wallets. “While working with the world’s leading brands and fintechs building in Web3, we carefully designed a non-custodial wallet solution that met their security expectations and was proven to scale as required,” said Michael Shaulov, Co-founder & CEO at Fireblocks. “Our offering follows our commitment to reduce counterparty risk across the ecosystem, providing a truly non-custodial solution for companies with multi-million dollar brands to protect. ” Specifically designed for fintechs, brands, and Web3 startups, Fireblocks’ non-custodial wallets utilize MPC-CMP technology that runs in a hardware-based trusted execution environment,... --- ### Crypto Safekeeping Specialist Fireblocks Introduces Non-Custodial Wallet Service - Published: 2023-09-11 - Modified: 2024-06-09 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/press/crypto-safekeeping-specialist-fireblocks-introduces-non-custodial-wallet-service/ - Press Type: In The News --- ### Fireblocks’ non-custodial wallet service made for brands, startups - Published: 2023-09-11 - Modified: 2024-06-09 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/press/fireblocks-non-custodial-wallet-service-made-for-brands-startups/ - Press Type: In The News --- ### Crypto custody firm Fireblocks reveals ‘BitForge’ vulnerabilities that threatened funds on major exchanges including Binance, Coinbase - Published: 2023-08-11 - Modified: 2024-06-09 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/press/crypto-custody-firm-fireblocks-reveals-bitforge-vulnerabilities-that-threatened-funds-on-major-exchanges-including-binance-coinbase/ - Press Type: In The News --- ### Fireblocks Researchers Uncover Vulnerabilities Impacting Dozens of Major Wallet Providers - Published: 2023-08-09 - Modified: 2025-03-08 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/press/fireblocks-researchers-uncover-vulnerabilities-impacting-dozens-of-major-wallet-providers/ - Press Type: Press Releases The findings revealed major differences among MPC wallet providers, with industry leaders Coinbase WaaS and Zengo coming out on top. NEW YORK – August 9, 2023 – Today, the Fireblocks Cryptography Research Team announced the findings of multiple zero-day vulnerabilities in some of the most used cryptographic multi-party computation (MPC) protocols, including GG-18, GG-20, and implementations of Lindell 17. If left unremediated, the exposures would allow attackers and malicious insiders to drain funds from the wallets of millions of retail and institutional customers in seconds, with no knowledge to the user or vendor. The series of vulnerabilities, dubbed BitForge, had impacted popular wallet providers like Coinbase WaaS, Zengo, and Binance. Following the industry-standard 90-day responsible disclosure process, Coinbase WaaS and Zengo have since fixed and resolved the identified issues. In addition, the academic papers which contained flaws have been revised. The Fireblocks Cryptography Research Team findings were presented during the Black Hat USA conference on Wednesday, August 9, and will be shared at Defcon on Thursday, August 10. “As decentralized finance and Web3 continue to gain popularity, the need for secure wallet and key management providers is evident,” said Pavel Berengoltz, Co-founder & Chief Technology Officer at Fireblocks. “While we are encouraged to see that MPC is now ubiquitous within the digital asset industry, it is evident from our findings — and our subsequent disclosure process — that not all MPC developers and teams are created equal.

This joint endeavor marks a significant milestone in revolutionizing the settlement and issuance processes in traditional capital markets. Project Eden is a unique project led by TASE in close partnership with the Israeli Ministry of Finance. The collaborative team has dedicated substantial effort and expertise to examine the application of blockchain infrastructure in the issuance and settlement of digital government bonds. The highly anticipated go-live event held on May 31, 2023 at the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange brought together prominent banks, both international and local (Bank Discount, Bank HaPoalim, Bank Leumi, Bank Mizrahi, Barclays, BNP Paribas, Deutsche Bank, First International Bank, Goldman Sachs, JP Morgan and Merrill Lynch).

Fireblocks (https://www. fireblocks. com), an easy-to-use platform to create innovative products on the blockchain and manage day-to-day crypto operations, announced today that it has partnered with Notabene (https://notabene. id/) by integrating its pre-transaction decision-making solution to the Fireblocks platform, creating a seamless experience for its institutional customers looking to comply with their local crypto Travel Rule requirements. In 2019, the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) introduced the Travel Rule. This rule requires virtual asset service providers (VASPs) to collaborate in identifying each other's customers in a transaction, to avoid financial crime and implement effective sanctions screening programs. Fireblocks' integration with Notabene seamlessly meets the needs of institutions looking for a solution that allows automated management and compliance of the Travel Rule's assorted requirements, regardless of variations across global jurisdictions. With this partnership, institutions can now perform real-time compliance checks before settlement, marking the first time this has been possible. The fully integrated solution eliminates much of the technical and operational complexity that previously hindered the implementation of the Travel Rule, empowering VASPs to achieve compliance and roll out the Travel Rule in a matter of days. According to a recent FATF survey, 34 jurisdictions have passed relevant laws introducing the Travel Rule, and 25 are in the process of passing legislation.

The Fireblocks cryptography team notified BitGo of the vulnerability on December 5, and after confirming the technical details, BitGo suspended its vulnerable service on December 10. In February, BitGo released a patch for the vulnerability, and required its clients to update to the latest version by March 17. “As attacks on the crypto industry continue to accelerate, licensed custodians are entrusted with securing billions of dollars in user funds. The vulnerability is a result of the wallet provider failing to follow a well-reviewed cryptographic standard,” said Idan Ofrat, Co-founder and CTO at Fireblocks. “The explosive growth of digital assets in the last few years, both in numbers of users and transaction volumes, has made it extremely lucrative for hackers to target this space. Fireblocks’ mission is to help the industry increase its resilience and security, and our research team is proud to assist qualified custodians so that they may ensure the security of their code and offerings. ” The vulnerability, which the Fireblocks team proved was exploitable via a... --- ### NAB’s stablecoin, the AUDN, deployed for instant cross-border payments - Published: 2023-03-14 - Modified: 2024-06-09 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/press/nabs-stablecoin-the-audn-deployed-for-instant-cross-border-payments/ - Press Type: In The News --- ### America’s Best Startup Employers - Published: 2023-03-07 - Modified: 2024-06-08 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/press/americas-best-startup-employers/ - Press Type: In The News --- ### Bloomberg Crypto Full Show - Published: 2023-02-14 - Modified: 2024-06-08 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/press/bloomberg-crypto-full-show/ - Press Type: Thought Leadership --- ### Fireblocks calls for clear rules for stablecoins - Published: 2023-02-08 - Modified: 2024-06-08 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/press/fireblocks-calls-for-clear-rules-for-stablecoins/ - Press Type: Thought Leadership --- ### Fireblocks director and former fintech head of Bank of England talks about CBDCs and stablecoins - Published: 2023-02-03 - Modified: 2024-06-08 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/press/fireblocks-director-and-former-fintech-head-of-bank-of-england-talks-about-cbdcs-and-stablecoins/ - Press Type: Thought Leadership --- ### Treasury reveals proposals to regulate cryptocurrency - Published: 2023-02-01 - Modified: 2024-06-08 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/press/treasury-reveals-proposals-to-regulate-cryptocurrency/ - Press Type: Thought Leadership --- ### Both hurt and saved by regulations, what is next for crypto in Japan? - Published: 2023-01-04 - Modified: 2024-06-08 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/press/both-hurt-and-saved-by-regulations-what-is-next-for-crypto-in-japan/ - Press Type: Thought Leadership --- ### Institutional demand for crypto to drive industry forward in 2023 - Published: 2023-01-03 - Modified: 2024-06-08 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/press/institutional-demand-for-crypto-to-drive-industry-forward-in-2023/ - Press Type: Thought Leadership --- ### Crypto Custody Tech Provider Fireblocks Receives First-of-Its-Kind Security Certificate - Published: 2022-12-22 - Modified: 2023-01-06 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/press/crypto-custody-tech-provider-fireblocks-receives-first-of-its-kind-security-certificate/ - Press Type: In The News --- ### What is central banks' role in driving and supporting innovation with a focus on CBDCs? - Published: 2022-11-02 - Modified: 2022-11-02 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/press/what-is-central-banks-role-in-driving-and-supporting-innovation-with-a-focus-on-cbdcs/ - Press Type: Thought Leadership --- ### Institutional Crypto Custody & Payments - Published: 2022-11-02 - Modified: 2022-11-28 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/press/institutional-crypto-custody-payments/ - Press Type: Thought Leadership --- ### The Gatekeeper Unlocking Institutional Access to Crypto - Published: 2022-11-02 - Modified: 2022-11-02 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/press/the-gatekeeper-unlocking-institutional-access-to-crypto/ - Press Type: Thought Leadership --- ### Fireblocks Launches Digital Asset Payments Engine with FIS Joining as New Network Member - Published: 2022-10-24 - Modified: 2023-07-18 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/press/fireblocks-launches-digital-asset-payments-engine-with-fis-joining-as-new-network-member/ - Press Type: Press Releases New end-to-end solution has settled $1B in transactions to date with Checkout. com and will enable a global digital asset economy for merchants, entrepreneurs and creators.

The founders recognized that the process of buying crypto was overly complex, intimidating, and inaccessible to non-crypto-native users, so to change this, they envisioned creating an experience that was as simple and intuitive as e-commerce, enabling anyone to purchase crypto without the need for technical expertise. Ramp Network's goal is to reduce these barriers, allowing more people to explore and benefit from the opportunities of Web3 and the decentralized economy. Ramp Network serves users in over 150 countries, supporting more than 40 fiat currencies. It aims to make crypto accessible globally through local payment methods like Pix in Brazil, SPEI in Mexico, SEPA Instant in Europe, and services across all 50 US states. The Challenge As Ramp Network scaled its operations, the team faced increasing complexity in managing the growing volume of transactions and treasury operations. Initially, these tasks were handled manually, but this approach led to inefficiencies and a greater risk of error. Ramp Network’s treasury operations team was managing thousands of operations per month, redistributing assets across wallets, exchanges, and banks.... --- ### QCP > Discover how Fireblocks enabled QCP to scale globally, streamline operations, and shape product innovation like Off-Exchange. - Published: 2025-06-02 - Modified: 2025-06-02 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/customers/qcp/ - Tags: Off-Exchange, Payments - Industry: Payments 4 min. readHow QCP Scales its Digital Asset Solutions with Fireblocks Off Exchange Request a demoRequest a demo jQuery(document). ready(function($) { setTimeout( => { const featuredImageUrl = $('. customer-story-featured-image'). attr('src'); $('img. w-css-reset'). attr('src', featuredImageUrl). attr('srcset', ''). addClass('fireblocks-cs-video-cover'); }, 750) }); Benefits at a glanceSeamless ScalingScaled globally with Fireblocks’ multiproduct suite—no need to build in-house infrastructureTrusted PartnershipGained a people-first technology partner aligned with QCP’s client-centric valuesTailored InnovationInfluenced product development, like Off Exchange, by collaborating directly with FireblocksCross-Border ConfidenceEnabled efficient operations across jurisdictions through unified, secure infrastructure About QCP My name is Melvin.

As local currency volatility impacts traditional banking, digital assets are fast becoming essential tools for wealth preservation. As one of the first regulated crypto exchanges in Nigeria, Quidax offers a secure, user-friendly platform tailored to blockchain developers, crypto payment companies, and everyday traders. With features like competitive NGN/USDT rates and seamless fiat on/off ramps, Quidax is making it easier for Africans to access and move value globally. With regulatory approval from Nigeria’s SEC and expansion into Ghana and Kenya on the horizon, Quidax is now navigating an increasingly complex regulatory environment—demanding infrastructure that is not just secure and scalable, but compliance-ready. Laying the Foundation with an Infrastructure Overhaul Quidax first partnered with Fireblocks in 2021 as they were looking to move beyond the limitations of their in-house blockchain infrastructure. At the time, the focus was on scalability and security—specifically, eliminating the operational drag caused by managing their own nodes and wallets, and securing customer assets against growing threats.

Their clients are primarily interested in investing in digital assets and growing their capital, but lack the technical expertise or resources to implement complex strategies. EarnPark simplifies and automates this process, removing barriers to entry. They also serve investment funds looking to diversify their portfolios and increase their share of digital assets through trust management, as well as asset managers who want to place their own strategies on and attract additional liquidity through the EarnPark platform. The Challenge Before integrating with Fireblocks, EarnPark faced the challenge of scaling their digital asset platform securely and efficiently. They were utilizing internal infrastructure to manage blockchain operations, which resulted in: High labor costs for infrastructure support and blockchain version updates Misallocated development resources for backend support rather than revenue generating initiatives Layered on top of these technical hurdles were the pressures of a rapidly changing regulatory landscape.

We convert it into fiat and vice versa. It's very simple. Think of us as a pipe that transacts for our merchants. I think the other important fact is that we only service B2B customers. So we have 500 merchants on our system. We don't do retail. We don't do consumer. So it's a very focused operation. The other probably really important thing is that we are a public company, one of the few public companies. We are listed on Nasdaq. Our ticker is ALTS. The first year we processed $39M out of the gate. So that was 2020. Still early days in crypto payments, so we knew that there was a pull market happening there.

These clients need real-time access to capital to buy, sell, and move funds across borders efficiently. However, delivering on that promise comes with operational and security challenges—including managing treasury operations across multiple blockchains, scaling liquidity without increasing manual risk, and maintaining security and compliance while growing fast.   Given all these considerations, Arf needed a digital asset infrastructure that offered: Multi-chain support to adapt quickly to market demand and unlock cross-platform liquidity Enterprise-grade security utilizing HSM and MPC technologies to protect assets and improve governance processes Operational efficiency to streamline complex treasury workflows The Solution Fireblocks... --- ### Zerocap > Learn about Zerocap, a global liquidity provider serving institutional clients and enhancing operations through Fireblocks. - Published: 2025-04-28 - Modified: 2025-04-28 - URL: https://www.fireblocks.com/customers/zerocap/ - Tags: Off-Exchange, Transaction Policies, Treasury Management - Industry: Institutional Trading Firm, Liquidity Maker 4 min. readHow Zerocap Scaled Global Digital Asset Trading with Fireblocks jQuery(document). ready(function($) { setTimeout( => { const featuredImageUrl = $('. customer-story-featured-image'). attr('src'); $('img. w-css-reset'). attr('src', featuredImageUrl). attr('srcset', ''). addClass('fireblocks-cs-video-cover'); }, 750) }); Benefits at a glanceSecure and Scalable CustodySecure and efficient wallet infrastructure gives Zerocap greater control over custody and whitelisting processesAutomated WorkflowsAutomate previously manual workflows, especially on the wallet and settlement side of tradesSeamless ConnectivityEasily connect with liquidity providers, market makers, and exchanges, centralizing operations and reducing reliance on multiple platformsFuture-Proof PlatformFireblocks’ TAP engine allows embed custom governance and security policies directly into their workflows Zerocap Overview My name is Ryan McCall.

So that is a big area of focus for the Solana ecosystem and where we're seeing a lot of traction.   My focus is on the payments vertical.

For retail, a mobile first experience is really what they're after – something simple, easy to use, intuitive. Institutions are coming from much more of a custodial asset management kind of perspective. You need to build a workflow that meets when they are. I think, funnily enough, even though their user experience desires are very different, the net of what they want is very, very similar. People that have value capital on chain, they want to stay on chain. And so that goal, we found, is pretty universal.

Enigma offers spot and derivatives trading, borrowing and lending, cryptocurrency-linked equity products and other structured products. The company is distributed across locations and time zones across Tel Aviv, London (HQ), Paris, Geneva and New York. Client Challenges Enigma’s hardware wallet solution couldn’t keep up with settlement volume To settle trades, Enigma was using Ledger, a hardware wallet solution. Enigma employees had to plug Ledger devices into a computer and manually enter a password up to 50 times per day. With offices in multiple time zones across the globe, Enigma struggled to manage this wallet solution as their trading volume grew. If they continued using Ledger for manual settlement, Enigma knew they’d have to hire more employees to keep up with the growing transaction volume, which is not a scalable solution and would increase operational and enterprise risk for the firm. They needed a more systematic, robust, scalable solution to support a large variety of crypto assets, including Altcoins and banking networks. We realized very quickly, this approach would not scale, given the amount of business we were doing over the globe. We were looking for a better solution to move away from manual application of Ledger.

My name is Michael Rabkin, I’m the head Global Business Development and DV Chain. We’re one of the leading market makers and liquidity providers for spot crypto. Because we run on prop money, it’s very important for money to be efficient for us. Prior to Fireblocks, we didn’t have the ability to settle within a network so that created complications and created additional costs for us from a capital perspective.

I’m the director of Platform Infrastructure at the Algorand Foundation. Before Fireblocks, we did have other custodial solutions, but they were more traditional in that they were for protecting a treasury more so than day to day operations. But the bigger challenge was to support the governance payers, which will be roughly about 50,000 transactions in a very short burst of time once every quarter. And the limitations from the other custodians was that they weren’t designed for that large short bursts of transaction volume. Fireblocks met both of those needs for us on the automated point of view from the governance payouts. We were able to successfully pay out all governors within a very short period of time. This was through their automated policies. So... --- ### Bitso > Discover how Bitso securely scales its wallet management structure with Fireblocks.

One challenge that we faced before we integrated with Fireblocks is that we were building our own, in-house solution for wallet management, which was expensive. We needed to create a new node for each network that we wanted to integrate, so the cost of maintenance was super high; we couldn’t offer the best user experience to scale our business. Once we figured out that our in-house solution was not going to scale, we decided to look for a partner that could provide us the infrastructure that we needed while also offering high-level security, so we could trust that our users’ assets would be safe.

Nabil Manji, SVP/GM, Head of Crypto and Web3 at Worldpay, explains, “A capital-efficient merchant needs payments to settle quickly to keep their daily liquidity in line. Many people don’t realize that when you pay a merchant with a credit card, that merchant doesn’t get paid until a few days later – with money moving through three or four different intermediaries. ” The traditional banking system is limited by a narrow window of settlement opportunities, allowing merchants to access funds only during operating business... --- ### Bloxcross > Learn how Bloxcross uses Fireblocks to deliver real-time, secure cross-border transactions for global merchants.

Bloxcross turned to Fireblocks to build their blockchain-based payments infrastructure, which enables clients to perform real-time cross-border settlements 24/7. Challenge Bloxcross initially leveraged a traditional custodian to build their payments infrastructure, but quickly learned that the provider was not able to handle the transaction volume and blockchain coverage that their business and merchants required. Diego Baez, Founder & CEO of Bloxcross, explains, “We found that the custodian we were using was slow to react to the marketplace, and their infrastructure was clumsy– which made it very difficult for us to support our merchants. ” When looking for a new provider, Bloxcross knew that they needed a custody technology with wide blockchain support so they could settle with merchants in their preferred stablecoin. They also needed an infrastructure that could handle high volumes for wallet creation and transaction signing in order to reliably service merchants 24/7.

Karate Combat is the first sports league structured as a DAO, powered by the $KARATE token. Challenge Karate Combat needed a secure way to store their private keys and their native $KARATE token on both the Ethereum and Hedera networks. The new token and the increase in transaction volume required that only certain employees, including legal and tax directors, could oversee the funds. In addition to managing and securing the token treasury, Karate also needed to make distributions to investors and payments to partners periodically.

Challenge Flipkart was challenged with advancing its Web2 loyalty programs. The team needed to improve and elevate: Customer Engagement: Loyalty programs were not designed with brand affinity in mind, failing to deliver customized experiences that resonate with modern consumers. Rewards Distribution: Traditional targeting of rewards across various engagement levels (low, medium, high) is not foolproof, leading to less-than-perfect redemption rates. Implementing a more flexible rewards distribution system can empower users, deepen their engagement, and potentially lower customer acquisition costs by attracting new customers to the brand. Royalty Opportunities: In the past, brands only expended resources on rewards without earning any royalties. There is untapped potential to convert reward programs into a new brand revenue stream, thereby making the rewards ecosystem more reciprocal and profitable. Solution Flipkart partners with Fireblocks for its enterprise-grade wallet infrastructure, seamlessly embedding wallets in the background of the Flipkart mobile app – complemented by the Fireblocks configurable governance framework and treasury management capabilities. The solution enables Flipkart to manage and secure their Web3 operations easily – from deploying smart contracts to minting NFTs and transferring to self-custody wallets, seamlessly spun up for users in the background.

Challenges Launching and scaling a secure and compliant crypto trading firm Norman Wooding, Founder and CEO of SCRYPT, launched the company from the ground up with Co-Founder and COO, Sylvan Martin. Together, they analysed a variety of hot and cold wallet solutions to build out the company’s crypto infrastructure. As they grew, they added more tools to their operations. But with a disparate mix of solutions, their ambitions were constrained by the limited capabilities, API functionality, and automation opportunities in their tech stack. The fast growing company had to perform many processes manually. Not only were these manual processes inefficient, they also opened the door to human error. The biggest challenge with SCRYPT’s existing solutions was lack of scalability and tradeoffs between security and flexibility. Norman knew he couldn’t scale the company without a more efficient, compliant, and secure infrastructure, so he researched new hot and cold wallet self-custody providers and custodians. But it wasn’t until Norman found Fireblocks that he knew he’d found the answer to these long-standing issues. I would ask myself, what if we were doing a million transactions a day instead of 100?

Challenge Achieving strong ROI as a new trading platform When Jeetu Kataria, CEO and Co-Founder of DIFX, planned the company’s launch in 2020, he knew that selecting the right crypto custody infrastructure partner was critical to its success. To achieve a strong ROI as quickly as possible, he wanted to prioritize operational efficiency from day one. So he looked for a platform where he could automate operational processes while also strengthening security. At the same time, he wanted faster signing and settlement times to keep a lid on Ethereum fees and meet the expectations of his high-volume, high-asset clients. The choice of a crypto custody solution was so important, he and his team spent three months assessing almost every platform on the market. They considered numerous options but were concerned about the slow transaction times and high costs of legacy multi-signature wallets. Once they saw the advantages of Fireblocks’ MPC-CMP wallets, Ethereum Gas Station, and automated policy workflows, they decided to go all-in on Fireblocks.

Challenges Meeting demand for new tokens and fast withdrawals CoinFLEX relies on its ability to issue new tokens quickly in response to user requests and new market opportunities. If these requests aren’t fulfilled quickly, CoinFLEX loses its first-mover advantage, which negatively impacts customer satisfaction levels and increases the risk of CoinFLEX losing new customers to competing exchanges. CoinFLEX had been using a well-known multi-sig crypto custodian vendor for years but grew frustrated with the vendor’s inflexibility when issuing new tokens. In addition, the existing vendor had limited automation capability, which hindered CoinFLEX’s ability to quickly and easily move assets to enable faster withdrawals for its customers. So CoinFLEX started looking for an infrastructure platform that could support new tokens quickly and set a new, higher bar for withdrawal speeds in the industry. Solution Fireblocks’ quick new token turnaround, omnibus wallets, and automation for faster withdrawals After surveying the market, CoinFLEX decided to partner with Fireblocks as its crypto custody infrastructure solution. Sudhu Arumugam, Co-founder of CoinFLEX, was immediately impressed with Fireblocks’ responsiveness.

Client Challenges Securely access DeFi, automate settlement operations, and access new lenders and OTC desks for liquidity In mid-2019, Fasanara Capital launched its first crypto-native hedge fund, Fasanara Digital, which focuses on delivering strong returns for institutional investors. The fund takes a unique market-neutral approach, trading multiple times the size of its portfolio every month across spot and derivative products and a broad spectrum of counterparties. For the fund's first year, Fasanara had approximately $20M of assets under management (AUM). As the volume of AUM grew tremendously, Fasanara Digital wanted to increase the reliability and security of its systems. More specifically, they wanted to add a trusted, secure settlement and wallet platform to ensure the system's reliability as it continues to scale with AUM growth. The team was also increasingly worried about counterparty risk. They wanted to ensure continuous growth, which meant moving funds faster and more easily, accessing liquidity, and rebalancing between trading venues quicker and cheaper. Additionally, they wanted to capture more opportunities in decentralized finance (DeFi) for their investors without compromising security. The team realized DeFi is the future and anticipated a lot of volume moving towards non-custodial trading venues on DeFi.

Client Challenges In-house custody limits the range of tokens and transaction volumes Bit2Me’s retail crypto exchange business was growing, but its growth was limited by its in-house custody solution, which wasn’t designed to support a wide range of token types or process large volumes of daily transactions. Bit2Me’s retail customers wanted support for a wider range of crypto tokens for trading, but Bit2Me’s hardware provider would only commit to supporting a limited number of new tokens per year—and refused to commit to a timely implementation. As Operations Manager of Bit2Me, Claudiu Iova was concerned about the limited token offering and the slow transaction processing speed and high human error rates caused by the in-house hardware’s lack of multi approver policy automation. Simple mistakes, like typos or misplaced commas, had major repercussions, and these mistakes would only grow as transaction volumes and the number of tokens supported increased. In February, we supported five coins and wanted to expand to over 250 by September. But this wasn’t possible with our internal engineering resources or existing hardware provider’s roadmap and support.

A subsidiary of Japan’s GMO Internet, GMO Trust is the world’s first regulated JPY-pegged stablecoin issuer. Challenges Lack of in-house capability to mint and burn stablecoins GMO Trust wanted to offer fiat-based stablecoins tied to JPY and USD as a way for trading companies, international businesses, and exchanges to send money efficiently for cheaper cost or hedge against volatility while trading seamlessly between fiat and digital assets. At first, Ken Nakamura, CEO of GMO Trust, considered developing the stablecoin minting and burning process in house but ultimately decided it was too cumbersome with its custody, private key, and other workflow requirements. Choosing to mint and burn stablecoins in house would also restrict trading hours. Digital asset markets trade 24/7 and bringing the process in house would limit token issuing and adjustments to typical business hours—which would negatively impact revenue. At the same time, Ken knew they would face strict regulatory requirements. Tokenization of any kind is subject to rigid, detailed operational procedures and risk mitigation plans which would need the approval of regulators. So Ken and his team started looking for a third-party stablecoin tokenization provider that could manage the process and meet... --- ### Revolut > Learn how Revolut scaled their finance platform with Fireblocks, eliminating manual treasury operations and enhancing security.

According to Edward Cooper, Head of Cryptocurrency at Revolut, “we’re aiming to be the number one go-to super app of finance. ” The process of logging into different providers to do rebalancing used to be extremely cumbersome. I think that if we hadn’t onboarded a partner like Fireblocks, we would have struggled to keep up with increased volume during the bull run. Edward CooperHead of Cryptocurrency Challenges Too many crypto operations require manual intervention Revolut couldn’t scale at the pace they wanted — their infrastructure for crypto and internal crypto treasury movements involved a fair amount of manual work.

A question that gets asked as part of the onboarding process - can we connect on the Fireblocks network? Because I think that indicates to both us and our counterparty that operations will be fairly seamless from this point. My name is Nim Sirodana. I work for GSR. GSR was founded in 2013, and we're now a leader in the digital assets trading and market making space. We specialize in providing liquidity and risk management strategies and structured products to various participants in the industry.

If you take the current, world, state of the world in terms of, how operations are handled with respect to, funding various trading activity and also settling the trading activity. If you think about the way this is happening right now, what happens is that, typically, we have a very large number of wallets, very large number of addresses, and we have to manage the process of working with a counterparty and understanding, which address do we send something to?

My name's Neil Van Hughes, I'm a Partner and Director of Sales and Trading here at BlockFills. BlockFills is a global financial services technology and trading company. We focus on providing digital asset liquidity, execution, and clearing services to professionals and institutions around the globe. We bring that together in a full-service trading platform and back office system. For us, being able to use Fireblocks means logging on to one platform where we can see all of our counterparties completely whitelisted and secured. We can create sub-account structures. Let's say we're settling between another counterparty and a direct client of ours. If both clients or the client and counterparty have Fireblocks, we can settle something in minutes. And we're not talking about thirty minutes or sixty minutes. We're talking for about a few minutes.

We need a tech solution that is, allowing us to both, keep our assets safe and sending them in a safe way. My name is Charlie. I am the CEO of Wharton, a French-based market-making film in the cryptocurrency world. We were founded in 2017, backed by two French institutions, with the idea of deploying strategic and algorithmic market-making strategies on exchange in the BTC market, as well as, in cryptocurrency. I believe we are now top three in Europe in terms of volume and in terms of number of clients that we that we provide over the counter and, and are always looking to expand, the number of assets that we are trading and the number of FX currencies that we are providing to them. We were losing maybe one hour or two hours per day just to settle in a safe environment.

However, at this moment, trusting counterparties and your dealings and transactions with them is still one of the biggest challenges in this industry. Hi, my name is Michael Wu. I'm the founder and the CEO of Amber Group. Amber Group is an integrated crypto finance platform. We help our clients buy and sell cryptocurrencies, and we help them with innovative crypto financial products. We are a company of about three years old with about a hundred thirty people in six different cities across the globe. We put the security of our clients and our own assets first above everything. Therefore, we had to involve lots of tedious and less efficient procedures before we adopted Fireblocks. A lot of approvals have to be done, in less efficient ways by multiple people to ensure security first. For us, we deal with a lot of trades, a lot of transactions everyday. By using Fireblocks we can combine the security and efficiency in dealing with these transactions which definitively help us to expand our businesses.

We are a Sao Paulo, Brazil-based hedge fund specializing in crypto market making. We are active on most of the major global exchanges and have been doing so for two and a half years. We're one of the older, specialized crypto hedge funds out there right now. One of the biggest fears we have in trading crypto is sending coins to a wallet that isn't in use anymore, or is stale, or is the wrong wallet—or maybe we copied-pasted something wrong when setting up the wallet. That's one of the biggest concerns that everybody in crypto has. Using the Fireblocks Network, the main advantage we've gained as a firm is the ease and peace of mind of adding new counterparts without going through the whole process of whitelisting, checking, and testing all their wallets. And on an ongoing basis, validating with a counterpart their wallets. That's just out the window whenever they're... --- ### JST Capital > Discover how JST Capital enhances asset management and client solutions with Fireblocks, ensuring flexibility, speed, and security.

When you have a twenty fourseven, trading business, or execution business, and the markets are open all the time, it does not make it easy, from a, man hours point of view to go through that process. Timing and flexibility is important for our business as it allows us, not only to use, from our asset management perspective to use our coins, as efficiently as we can. But also anytime we're providing solutions for clients, we want to be able to use their coins as efficiently as we can because it either, (a) it may provide higher returns for them, or, (b) it allows them to move it to where where they would want it the most. What Fireblocks, clearly has allowed us to do is the flexibility and the speed of where we can move coins around to whether they be our partners, whether they be, our clients or whether they be exchanges.

This is Frank Mikulitz, Managing Director of FXCH. We are a cryptocurrency clearing house. We started our business in mid-2018 after more than ten years of FX prime brokerage and clearing FX. The biggest challenge I had with previous systems was that the cost of security was way too high. So, in terms of achieving the highest level of security, I had to involve the wallet firm, the wallet company, change or open the policies, make a change within a very tight window, and then have the change approved by a certain number of participants. If my participants were not actually available during this tight window that I was opening, then that's it. I had to do it again. So it ended up costing me sometimes two or three days for making a small modification, like even adding one asset. And I think that, although security is paramount and it's the number one priority, the cost of this security was too high. With most institutional wallets, the connection between the owner of an address and that address, you... --- --- ## Events & Webinars ### New Crypto Regulations: Building a Better Financial System > Fireblocks webinar on new crypto regulations: Understand how evolving regulations are shaping the future of digital assets and financial systems. -

At the time of writing, Ethereum has: Over 10 thousand active nodes that run Over 1 million active validators, with Over 34 million ETH staked (in dollar terms, greater than $100 billion is locked in Ethereum PoS consensus to help secure the network) However, staking presents both risks and opportunity costs. This paper will cover the fundamentals of staking, its benefits and risks, and the associated opportunity costs. Additionally, we will cover what liquid staking is, how it works and its growth. Lastly, we will highlight key considerations for institutional entities when evaluating staking services. What is Ethereum Proof-of-Stake? Ethereum is a public blockchain powered by its proof-of-stake (PoS) consensus mechanism. By staking (locking in protocol) ether (ETH), Ethereum's native currency, users are granted the rights to propose and attest new blocks, ultimately progressing the blockchain. Users participating in PoS consensus on Ethereum are often called node operators, who run validators. A validator refers to a client with 32 ETH locked in the protocol staking contract and actively contributing to PoS consensus through validating software.
