By London, UK—29 June 2023—BlockFills, a pioneer innovator in the digital asset sector for liquidity provision, and cutting-edge SaaS tech, has announced their integration with digital asset servicing provider Zodia Custody to provide secure, registered digital asset market-access to its customers worldwide; fulfilling the demand for compliance-approved, best-in-class digital asset custody solutions on an FCA-registered platform.
The partnership, equipping BlockFills with access to the UK-domiciled, FCA-registered digital asset custody platform, will designate BlockFills as a trusted component of the lifecycle for institutions that may require regulated custody and higher levels of regulatory compliance. Additionally, Zodia Custody clients will acquire access to BlockFills’ unparalleled digital asset technology and liquidity across spot, derivatives and credit markets.
“Upper-echelon financial institutions, funds, and family offices have increasingly requested that BlockFills integrate with a UK-domiciled, FCA registered custody provider with cutting-edge technology,” said Nick Hammer, co-founder, and CEO of BlockFills. “The formation of this relationship is our answer to our clients looking for a highly regulated and secure custody solution.”
Patrick Zielbauer, BlockFills’ Managing Director of Sales, continues: “The combination of Zodia Custody’s focus on loss prevention, proof of ownership, and segregation of duty with the established custody approach championed by Standard Chartered and Northern Trust is the solution our clients have asked for.”
“We are elated to be partnering with BlockFills to provide institutions with a safe passage into the digital asset market; it is essential to offer both the highest levels of security and compliance,” said Julian Sawyer, CEO of Zodia Custody. “Through Zodia Custody, BlockFills’ customers will access cutting-edge, digital asset-native technology including cold-storage security with 24/7, instant availability alongside bank-level compliance and governance. They will also benefit from full safeguarding and segregation mirroring the UK CASS principles. The addition of a market participant of BlockFills’ pedigree will enhance our objective of encouraging the institutional adoption of digital asset markets.”

They are poised to further their position as an asset to their over 1100 institutional clients across 50 countries, in arming their patrons with the tech, risk mitigation, deep liquidity, 24/7 market-access, and white glove support they need to safely launch or scale their digital asset business.
