Bybit taps Standard Chartered-backed Zodia Custody following Safe Wallet controversy

Bybit has entered a partnership with crypto custodian Zodia Custody to segregate its custody for institutional clients.

Cryptocurrency exchange Bybit announced in a press release on Thursday a new partnership with Zodia Custody to provide institutional clients with segregated custody, along with off-venue settlement solutions.

In an April 3 press release, Bybit said that thanks to the partnership, its institutional arm, Bybit Institutional, which targets larger investors, wants to provide transparent fees and reduce the risk of exposure for its clients.

The attack was reportedly carried out by compromising the computer of an employee at Safe, Bybit’s technology provider. Less than two weeks after the breach, Bybit’s CEO Ben Zhou stated that around 20% of the stolen funds had become untraceable, due to the hackers’ use of mixing services. Later on, Zhou indicated that 88% of the stolen funds from the exchange is still traceable
