Key expected transaction benefits include:
- Prime Trust’s Nevada Trust Company will join BitGo’s existing global network of regulated trust companies in South Dakota, New York, Germany, and Switzerland.
- Prime Trust’s fintech API infrastructure and Prime Trust exchange network to reinforce BitGo Wallet Services (BWS) and BitGo’s Go Network — custody, liquidity, settlement, and compliance capabilities to map over 1:1.

“The combination of Prime Trust and BitGo would significantly enhance the industry,(…). No other company will have the breadth of product and services nor depth of experience that this combined company would have. We are excited to offer our world-class infrastructure within an overall ecosystem and revolutionize the future of crypto.” Prime Trust’s Interim CEO and President, Jor Law, said.
Midway through 2022, before the crypto bear market started to take a serious toll, Las Vegas-based Prime Trust secured $107 million in investment. However, recent news has not been encouraging, with the company cutting a third of its personnel at the end of January and stating it will stop doing business in Texas where it was applying for a money transmitter license.
