Gate Partners with BitGo to Offer Go Network Off-Exchange Settlement, Empowering Institutions with Secure, Scalable Access to Digital Assets
Global leading cryptocurrency exchange Gate has announced the completion of integration with Go Network’s Off-Exchange Settlement (OES), helping customers efficiently access Gate liquidity while securely custodian their assets in BitGo’s regulated and insured cold wallets.
For a long time, the traditional cryptocurrency trading model has posed risks, operational complexities, and regulatory uncertainties for institutional investors. From the perspective of client risk management, directly storing funds on exchanges can impose certain limitations in terms of fund volume and trading volume. Today, Gate has partnered with BitGo to launch a secure and scalable solution specifically designed to meet the needs of today’s institutions, addressing the compliance challenges faced by traditional traders and facilitating their smooth access to global exchanges. With the Go Network OES, institutional investors can trade seamlessly on Gate without leaving assets on the exchange, simplifying operations while ensuring the safety of funds in a regulated, insured cold wallet.
The integration of Gate with Go Network OES brings a smarter and more robust trading architecture for institutional clients. Through this collaboration, clients can directly access Gate’s deep liquidity and a rich array of trading products, including spot, leverage, and perpetual contracts, achieving efficient trading while ensuring the highest level of security and control. Clients’ assets are always held in accounts that meet regulatory requirements, utilizing technologies such as cold wallets and multi-signature to ensure the safety of user assets. BitGo, as a licensed primary payment institution, provides insurance coverage of up to $250 million. In addition, institutional investors can complete automatic settlements through a settlement network maintained jointly by custodians and exchanges, simplifying operations, reducing friction and risk, and enhancing capital efficiency, while retaining full control over their own assets. This upgraded architecture fully reflects Gate’s specialized development path — continuously enhancing platform capabilities and security through innovation, firmly fulfilling commitments to institutional investors’ needs. It draws on proven models from traditional finance: custodians and trading execution institutions operate independently, thereby reducing systemic risk and ensuring the safety of client assets. The collaboration between Gate and BitGo makes the infrastructure of the cryptocurrency market more robust and more compliant with institutional standards.
“Institutions need more than just liquidity; they require security, transparency, and control,” said Addis Hu, Head of Global Institutional Business at Gate. “By partnering with BitGo, we are able to provide institutional clients with a trusted and secure trading experience that meets the highest industry standards while ensuring asset safety.”
“This collaboration with Gate fully reflects our commitment to continuously optimizing the institutional market structure,” said Brett Reeves, head of BitGo Go Network. “By combining secure, regulated custody with seamless trading access, we have opened a new chapter for digital asset trading.”
Gate and Go Network are redefining the way institutional clients enter the digital asset market by integrating global liquidity, regulated custody, and seamless settlement processes, helping clients achieve a no-compromise, scalable trading experience.
