Marathon Digital Selects Standard Chartered Backed Zodia Custody

In a press release on April 29, Bitcoin miner Marathon Digital Holdings reported selecting Zodia Custody, which is backed by Standard Chartered, SBI Holdings and Northern Trust. The moves comes as Marathon Digital announced plans to acquire bitcoin miners, sites or companies as a result of reduced rewards after Bitcoin halving.

The partnership will offer a valuable layer of diversification in Marathon’s custody solutions. In addition, it will deliver additional risk management assurances such as insolvency-remoteness and secure cold-wallet storage.

“We share many of the same values and ambitions for the future of the ecosystem, making us an excellent fit. As Marathon’s fourth custodian, we bring in greater diversification, and risk management – exactly what the ecosystem needs, said Julian Sawyer, CEO of Zodia Custody.
