Splendid FX stores all of your cryptocurrencies in cold storage, collaborative custody wallets in partnership with Gemini Custody, and Unchained Capital. Cold storage involves keeping the keys associated with the cryptocurrencies offline. At the same time, collaborative custody (also known as multi-signature) requires multiple parties to sign a transaction to move funds from a cryptocurrency address. Together, cold-stored collaborative custody is the safest way in the world to hold crypto, and because Splendid FX is a buy-side dominant product, it means we can maintain 99.9% of all crypto in cold storage.
