BitGo, a wholly owned subsidiary of BitGo Holdings, announced support for CIP-56 token standard assets on the Canton Network, including USDCx and cBTC. The launch expands BitGo's Canton infrastructure from custody of the network's native token, Canton Coin, to the broader ecosystem of institutional financial assets built on the CIP-56 token standard. "Canton is rapidly becoming critical infrastructure for institutional digital finance," said Chen Fang, Chief Revenue Officer at BitGo.

BitGo Prime and Susquehanna Crypto announced a partnership to provide eligible institutional clients with access to prediction market liquidity through BitGo's OTC desk and platform. The offering is designed to enable hedge funds, family offices, and ultra-high-net-worth individuals the ability to trade listed prediction markets on an OTC basis using cryptocurrency or stablecoin-denominated collateral already held within BitGo's platform. Liquidity for offering will be supported by Susquehanna Crypto. Prediction markets have continued to gain traction as a venue for price discovery around political, economic, and other event-driven outcomes. While retail platforms have broadened access to these markets, institutional adoption has remained constrained by the lack of integrated infrastructure for custody, collateral management, and OTC execution - leaving institutional participants without a credible OTC framework for accessing prediction markets without moving through retail workflows or liquidating crypto and stablecoin positions to fund trades. This partnership is intended to bridge that gap by combining BitGo's digital asset platform and bilateral execution capabilities with Susquehanna Crypto's liquidity and market expertise. Through the partnership, eligible BitGo clients can transact in reasonably liquid event contracts without requiring access to retail-oriented interfaces. Transactions will be executed bilaterally with BitGo and supported by cryptocurrency or stablecoin collateral, allowing clients to maintain existing digital asset positions while participating in event-driven markets through an institutional trading workflow. The transaction framework closely aligns with established derivatives market practice. Trades will be documented under industry standard derivatives trading documentation, including dedicated binary option and event contract confirmations, to support onboarding, execution, and risk management processes.

BitGo Holdings announced the launch of the BitGo Model Context Protocol Server, a new capability that integrates BitGo into AI-native development workflows by enabling AI-powered tools to search, read, and interact with BitGo's developer resources using natural language. "AI is changing how developers build, navigate technical systems, and interact with infrastructure," said Mike Belshe, CEO and Co-founder of BitGo. "Developers can now treat BitGo as agentic infrastructure - and this is just the first step in making our platform fully accessible to the AI economy. There's a lot more to come."
