Metaco, the crypto custody firm owned by <a href="https://coingape.com/breaking-ripple-acquires-metaco-for-250m/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ripple</a>, on Tuesday said BCB Group has&nbsp;moved its digital asset custody operations to Metaco’s flagship custody platform. 
BCB Group is a leading provider of payments accounts and trading services for the digital asset economy. It serves institutional clients by offering business accounts, cryptocurrency, and foreign exchange market liquidity for some renowned crypto exchanges and firms including Bitstamp, Crypto.com, Gemini, Kraken, Galaxy Digital, and others.

In a press release on April 9, <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.bcbgroup.com/bcb-group-consolidates-custody-and-governance-of-its-digital-asset-operations-on-metaco/" target="_blank">BCB Group</a> announced migrating governance of its digital asset custody operations from a third-party digital asset custody provider to Ripple-owned digital custody platform Metaco. The major decision was made to achieve the highest standards of compliance, security, and agility. 
BCB Group has now consolidated its custody technology operations to a single custody platform. This will allow BCB to scale its commercial offerings. 
BCB Group uses IBM Cloud Hyper Protect Crypto Services. With Metaco’s custody platform, the improved infrastructure will offer institutions to deliver optimized performance, improved resource use, and build a tamper-proof, trusted execution environment for digital asset transactions. This ensures end-to-end security via data encryption and isolation of customer environments. 
“Our collaboration with Ripple, Metaco and IBM Cloud is a paramount step in that direction, as it enables BCB Group to continue delivering superior top tier services to the digital asset ecosystem, in a seamless, secure and affordable way,” said BCB Group Co-founder and CEO, Oliver Tonkin. 
He added the new improved infrastructure will help get the E-Money Institution and Digital Assets Services Provider license from France’s ACPR and the AMF.

He added that Metaco’s secure and versatile custody infrastructure helps businesses scale in the digital asset economy while fully complying with existing or yet-to-come regulatory requirements globally. 
Ripple acquired Swiss crypto custody firm Metaco for $250 million last May to expand its reach.
