Deutsche Bank: Opens Bitcoin custody services to paying institutional clients

Deutsche Bank has opened Bitcoin custody services to institutional clients. The bank currently directly custodies BTC, ETH, USDC, and the euro stablecoins EURC and EURAU, with keys stored in hardware security modules, allowing clients to access the service through their own Autobahn gateway.

This service is aimed at EU clients and is provided from Frankfurt, initially supporting custody and transfers, with plans to add more features in the future. The service will be launched during the withdrawal period for ETF investors.
