Fireblocks has included the first cryptocurrency custodian companies in its global custodian program

Cryptocurrency custodian firm Fireblocks said Thursday that five companies, Zodia Custody, Komainu, CloudTech, Zerocap and Rakkar, will join its Global Custodian Partner Program. The Global Custodian Program offers cryptocurrency institutions using Fireblocks technology the option of having local third-party cryptocurrency custodian in their respective jurisdictions (UK, Australia, Singapore, UAE and Japan). Fireblock's recently announced New York Trust Company application, once approved, will meet the needs of U.S. customers, the custodian said.
