BitGo Holdings, Inc. has been named an additional custodian for Virtune’s Stablecoin Index ETP (ISIN: SE0026821282), a regulated Swedish digital‑asset issuer that launched the product on November 5 2025. The partnership gives BitGo custody responsibilities for the ETP and expands the program’s asset‑support capabilities across Europe, positioning BitGo as a key infrastructure partner for regulated stablecoin ETPs.

The deal is part of BitGo’s strategy to deepen its presence in the European market, where the Markets in Crypto‑Assets (MiCA) regulation has created a clearer framework for digital assets. BitGo holds a MiCA license from BaFin, and Virtune’s compliance with European regulatory standards reinforces investor confidence in the product. By adding BitGo as a custodian, Virtune can broaden its asset coverage and offer institutional clients a secure, insured custody solution backed by up to $250 million in insurance.

Management highlighted the partnership’s operational benefits. Jody Mettler, BitGo’s Chief Operating Officer, said, “Virtune has been a valued partner, and this expansion is a natural evolution of a relationship built on operational excellence and mutual trust.” Christopher Kock, Virtune’s CEO, noted that BitGo’s capabilities in digital‑asset custody and broad asset coverage will support Virtune’s product expansion and ongoing innovation, further solidifying a partnership built on trust and operational excellence.

Virtune manages 23 ETPs and $300 million in assets under management, serving over 160,000 investors. The addition of BitGo’s custody services is expected to enhance Virtune’s ability to scale its stablecoin offerings and attract larger institutional investors seeking regulated, insured custody solutions in Europe.

The partnership underscores the growing importance of regulated stablecoin ETPs in the European ETF market, which is projected to reach $6 trillion in assets under management by 2030. By aligning with BitGo’s robust custody infrastructure, Virtune positions itself to capture a larger share of this expanding market while maintaining compliance with MiCA and other regulatory requirements.
