Self-custody hot wallets
Combine security and accessibility
Optimize for liquidity without sacrificing safety in the process.
Key management: Self-custody hot wallets
With self-custody hot wallets, you maintain the User Key and the Backup Key, while BitGo keeps the Platform Key.
To start a transaction, utilize your User Key. BitGo will only countersign if the transaction meets the policies you've set up in your account.
Transfer funds quickly
Keep some funds liquid so you can capitalize on market opportunities or handle time-sensitive transactions.
Unlike custody wallets – where all keys get stored offline – BitGo self-custody hot wallets let you transact faster.
Transfer funds securely
Set up wallet policies to limit who can initiate or approve transactions, how much can be sent, and where the funds can go.
BitGo will only countersign a transaction if it meets all the policies you’ve set up for that wallet.
Build a holistic solution
Pair self-custody hot and custody wallets to keep some funds liquid and some funds extra secure.
Then use self-custody hot wallets to access DeFi and staking, so you can put your funds to work.
