STS Digital Becomes First Principal Derivatives Dealer Integrated on BitGo’s Go Network

Subscribe to our newsletter

STS Digital has launched as an exchange partner on BitGo’s Go Network for Off-Exchange Settlement (OES). This integration allows institutional clients to trade digital asset derivatives directly with a principal dealer while keeping their assets secured in BitGo’s regulated custody. Previously, the OES model was limited to connecting clients with exchanges; this update enables direct dealer-to-client execution without the requirement to prefund accounts or move assets out of independent custody.

Under this arrangement, clients access STS Digital’s liquidity for over 400 tokens, including vanilla and exotic options, spot, and structured products. Regulated by the Bermuda Monetary Authority, STS Digital provides two-way pricing and global coverage via UI, API, or voice channels. The model is designed to separate custody from execution, reducing counterparty risk by ensuring that client assets remain segregated from both the dealer’s balance sheet and the exchange environment.
