Marathon Digital Chooses Zodia Custody for Bitcoin Storage Services
Marathon Digital, one of the world's largest publicly listed Bitcoin miners, has chosen Zodia Custody for its digital asset custody services outside the United States.
Zodia Custody recently joined Metaco’s global crypto storage network to offer companies easy access to crypto storage and settlement with robust security measures.
In an announcement on April 29, Marathon Digital Holdings revealed its selection of Zodia Custody, which is backed by Standard Chartered, SBI Holdings, and Northern Trust. This decision comes as Marathon Digital plans to expand its Bitcoin mining operations in response to reduced rewards following Bitcoin halving events.
The partnership with Zodia Custody adds a valuable layer of diversification to Marathon’s custody solutions and enhances risk management with features like insolvency-remoteness and secure cold-wallet storage.
Julian Sawyer, CEO of Zodia Custody, expressed confidence in the partnership, highlighting shared values and ambitions for the future of the ecosystem. Zodia Custody’s compliance and reputation as a leading institutional digital asset custody provider were key factors in Marathon’s decision.
