EMURGO Partners with Matrixport’s Cactus CustodyTM for Institutional-Grade Custody Solutions
Orchestrated by EMURGO, this partnership with Cactus CustodyTM aims to deliver regulated, institutional-grade custody solutions for Cardano native assets, serving a burgeoning community of Web3 developers, decentralized application (dApp) users, and enterprises.
Cactus CustodyTM, holding SOC-2 certification and a license from Hong Kong’s Trust and Company Service Providers Unit, currently safeguards digital assets across more than 30 blockchains for over 300 institutional clients.
Ken Kodama, CEO of EMURGO, said, "The Cardano ecosystem is bigger than ever with millions of native tokens already created and more to come as our community continues to expand year-over-year. EMURGO is excited to have Cactus Custody join the Cardano ecosystem and provide an institutional-grade custodial solution for enterprises and other users to safeguard their Cardano native assets."
Wendy Jiang, Head of Cactus CustodyTM, said, "The partnership presents a tremendous opportunity to contribute to the vibrant Cardano ecosystem. Given the remarkable growth and sophistication of Cardano native assets, enterprises, developers, and users will require proven yet adaptable institutional-grade custody solutions that can scale with evolving needs.

Cardano’s architecture uniquely includes native assets or multi-asset support, enabling frictionless transactions without requiring smart contracts. This feature streamlines user fees and simplifies the development process for developers building on Cardano. According to intelligence platform Santiment, Cardano is at the forefront of network development activity, and as of October 2023, 8.93 million Cardano native tokens have been created. [1]
