BitGo CEO and co-founder Mike Belshe recently joined Bitcoin News for a wide-ranging conversation on the company’s journey from early innovative bitcoin storage solutions to becoming what he calls “the AWS of digital assets.” Belshe shares how an early attempt to hack Bitcoin turned into a mission to build secure, scalable infrastructure for nearly 4,000 institutions worldwide.
From pioneering one of the first multi-signature wallets to operating seven regulated custodians globally, Belshe discussed the lessons learned, challenges faced, and why BitGo’s infrastructure-first approach is designed to serve the digital asset industry for decades to come. The full interview offers a rare look inside the thinking and core missions of BitGo.
