New York – April 2026 – IXS, the Institutional Exchange Settlement Layer delivering licensed blockchain and tokenization infrastructure for the compliant, large-scale adoption of tokenized real-world assets (RWAs), today announced that it has selected BitGo Bank & Trust, National Association (“BitGo Bank & Trust”), an OCC-regulated digital asset trust bank and subsidiary of BitGo Holdings, Inc. (“BitGo”) (NYSE: BTGO) to support bitcoin collateral associated with its suite of institutional yield product offering.
Through this arrangement, IXS will utilize BitGo’s regulated, qualified custody infrastructure to hold bitcoin collateral supporting its institutional yield products. The structure is intended to provide institutional participants with access to liquidity while bitcoin collateral remains maintained at BitGo Bank & Trust.
"Institutions don't just want yield, they demand unbreakable alignment: security that survives black swan events, custody that eliminates counterparty risk, and returns rooted in real-world economics" said Julian Kwan, CEO of IXS.
“IXS deploys unlocked liquidity into regulated, short-duration RWAs like tokenized U.S. Treasuries, money market funds, and private credit. This isn't borrowed yield, it's true alignment, turning idle bitcoin into a capital-efficient, yield-bearing treasury asset without ever compromising upside or control."
