In an announcement issued by Fundament Group and Digital Asset Custody Services (DACS), it has been divulged that the pair will soon provide digital asset custody services.

  • Insurance Providers
  • Pension Funds
  • Family Offices

The technology used, in making these services possible, were developed through a strategic partnership between DACS and IBM.  When this took place, DACS Cofounder, Brad Chun, commented,

“As adoption of crypto custody, exchange and blockchain-as-a-service increases, our potential market will only expand.  We’re teaming up with IBM to take the DACS platform to market fast, opening up entirely new value proposition for both of our organization worldwide.”

Commentary

Upon announcing this new partnership, DACS Cofounder, Neil Fillary, took the time to comment.  The following is what he had to say on the matter.

“Fundament Securities is on track to bring institutional players into the space of decentralized finance. Smart contracts and digital-asset technologies are set to transform the way enterprises across industries do business. Now with our digital asset custody solution, Fundament’s underlying infrastructure can help bring security, and accessibility in the crypto-asset market to new heights.”
