Zodia Custody has partnered with crypto-native investment firm Re7 Capital to provide custody and off-exchange settlement through its interchange network.
The partnership will also support on-chain representations of investments in select Re7 funds, expanding institutional access to crypto-native yield strategies.
Evgeny Gokhberg, founder and managing partner at Re7 Capital, said: “Institutional investors increasingly require infrastructure that allows them to access yield strategies and alternative investment vehicles while maintaining high standards of custody and risk management.
“Our partnership with Zodia Custody brings together secure asset protection and capital-efficient market access in a way that aligns with these evolving requirements.”
Zodia Custody will support on-chain representations of investments in Re7’s BTC Yield Strategy and Market Neutral Strategy, with eligible clients able to hold positions in institutional-grade cold wallets.
Re7 will also integrate Zodia’s interchange platform for off-exchange settlement, allowing trading activity without moving assets out of custody.
Anoosh Arevshatian, chief product officer at Zodia Custody, said: “Interchange removes a structural barrier that has limited institutional participation in digital assets.
“When capital is deployed on an exchange, assets leave custody, and counterparty exposure is created. Interchange is designed to eliminate this.”
