DWP makes HBAR custody available for clients

Digital Wealth Partners (DWP), a registered digital asset investment advisor, has made HBAR, Hedera’s token, custody available for its clients through DWP’s partnership with Anchorage Digital.

The collaboration will allow DWP’s clients working with a crypto financial advisor to custody Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP, Stellar, and Avalanche, alongside HBAR, within the same regulated custody framework, according to the firm.

DWP intends for the addition of HBAR custody to address the institutional desire for compliant access to the Hedera network.

Due to Anchorage Digital Bank’s national trust bank charter granted by the US Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC), DWP’s clientele holding HBAR will have its assets custodied under the same federal regulatory framework that governs US national banks.

DWP says, for a crypto financial advisory managing client assets, “this is a custody structure designed to support compliant and security standards that institutional asset management requires”.

Assets held at Anchorage Digital Bank are not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or the Securities Investor Protection Corporation, instead falling under Anchorage’s insurance policy, including crime insurance, according to the firm.

Commenting on the initiative, Max Kahn, CEO of DWP, says: “Hedera’s network is backed by Fortune 500 governance, and the infrastructure around it has developed to a point where we’re comfortable offering custody through Anchorage’s federal charter.”

As reported by DWP, the firm is moving toward full HBAR trading access for clients, and those working with a DWP crypto financial advisor will be able to buy, hold, and manage HBAR positions through the same custodian they use for other digital assets.
