Wall Street giant Citi announced plans to introduce institutional digital asset custody services starting with Bitcoin later this year. The new offering, called Custody+, integrates real-time settlement, cash and liquidity management, FX, and AI-powered market intelligence to meet growing institutional demand. This service will allow clients to manage traditional securities and crypto assets within a unified platform, emphasizing regulated, bank-grade custody solutions. Citi's move reflects broader Wall Street interest in digital assets and tokenization efforts.
