TREE NEWS update: BitGo has launched Global Markets, a new business unit offering institutional trading and financial solutions, the crypto custodian said. The division is headed by Pete Janney, a former executive at bitcoin-focused firm NYDIG. The launch expands BitGo’s offerings beyond custody into institutional trading services.

AI take
BitGo's move from custody into trading reflects a broader convergence among crypto infrastructure providers, where holding client assets is increasingly a platform for adjacent services rather than an end in itself. The hire of a former NYDIG executive signals that BitGo is targeting the same bitcoin-focused institutional client base that lending and asset-management firms have courted. The open question is whether custody relationships translate into trading flow, or whether institutions keep execution separate from safekeeping—a split that would limit the advantage of bundling both under one roof.
