Alexandre Kech, chief executive officer of Onchain custodian, foretold that collaboration between crypto and ancient custodians can grow. Kech’s remarks came throughout a panel called “Custody: The New Global Competitive Landscape,” a part of consensus 2019 on may 14.
Kech ascertained that crypto custodians are far better at adding new token support to their wallets and are willing to carry a variety of crypto assets. “We have the agility, both in terms of compliance and technology, to deploy those coins’ way quicker.”
By Kech’s reasoning, ancient custodians are usually reluctant to take on new coins because of institutional barriers. They partner with crypto custodians so they will gain access to those assets for his or her customers. Meanwhile, the crypto custodians enjoy these arrangements as a result of customers who is also cautiously interested in crypto assets are more willing to invest in them if they can do so via a trustworthy bank or custodian.
Fellow panellist Matt Jennings, chief executive officer of Kingdom Trust, same that his organization has “worked with the big, ancient custodians for a long time.” Jennings noted that these establishments are inherently conservative, saying “Their offerings are limited. they're for a restricted group of consumers and that they sometimes own a limited group of assets and I don’t see that being any different in crypto space.” Given these limitations for every individual guardian, Jennings sees space for everyone.
CEO of Coinbase Custody guided missile McIngvale agreed with the other speakers, adding that selling custody is ultimately selling “trust and an account.”
As Top Market Group antecedently reported, the dearth of trusty tutelar solutions remains a deterrent to potential skilled and institutional investment in crypto assets.
In recent encounters between ancient monetary establishments and crypto custodians, the Intercontinental Exchange (ICE), operator of the New York stock market, was reportedly considering licensing its crypto custodial platform the Digital Asset Custody Company (DACC) in New York as of early May.
