- BitGo has announced the release of the first multi-signature and on-chain wallet for TRON (TRX).
- BitGo also offers custody solutions for TRX, enabling organizations with large amounts of capital to securely store their TRX.
The founder of TRON, Justin Sun, caused another sensation this week when he looked ahead to the release of a new product for the decentralized financial market. As always, he didn’t reveal exactly what it was, but asked the community about their ideas.
With this, Sun is once again heating up the rumour mill and drawing attention to the project. The payment service provider BitGo has been working on the development of a versatile TRX wallet for quite some time.

The Multi-Signature Wallet offers users the opportunity to particularly secure transactions. For a transaction to be released, several signatures must “sign” an existing signature with their private key, thus confirming that the transaction is trustworthy and may be released.
Multi-Signature Wallets use different private keys, which are assigned to several persons, to increase accountability, security and transparency, which cannot be achieved by other technologies so far.
In order to offer institutional investors a secure storage solution for their TRX, TRON in cooperation with BitGo has developed a custody service that meets the high compliance requirements and sufficient transparency. Benedict Chan, CTO at BitGo, explains that TRON can open up further markets with the new products:
We worked with TRON’s development team to develop their first multi-signature, institutional-grade wallet. TRON’s move towards on-chain multi-signature opens the door for financial services clients. Fiduciaries, who are responsible for other people’s money, demand the highest levels of security and compliance.
BitGo has been active in the crypto currency industry since 2013 and is a pioneer in providing multi-signature security and custody solutions for various cryptocurrencies such as TRON, Bitcoin, Ethereum and others.
