So basically, client can audit the assets directly on chain or they can look at\u00a0 it as they can look at the blockchain.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201c<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">What we will see is \u2013 probably some other banks like us \u2013 following this trend of Bitcoin accumulation. There are three ways to do that. The first one is internally \u2013 you do all the setup internally from the custody, trading, execution and and so on. The second one is completely delegated to an asset manager, but you don\u2019t have much control. You have to really trust the counterparty. And the third one is the solution that we have chosen-\u00a0 is basically team up with one of the best in class, who has a long track record, and make sure that we do the custody, we secure the execution and they manage the execution. And this way we have a secure, controlled environment for our clients.\u201d<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-251713\" src=\"https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Screenshot-2025-06-23-165649-743x1024.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"454\" height=\"626\" srcset=\"https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Screenshot-2025-06-23-165649-743x1024.png 743w, https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Screenshot-2025-06-23-165649-218x300.png 218w, https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Screenshot-2025-06-23-165649-768x1059.png 768w, https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Screenshot-2025-06-23-165649-36x50.png 36w, https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Screenshot-2025-06-23-165649-145x200.png 145w, https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Screenshot-2025-06-23-165649.png 853w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 454px) 100vw, 454px\"><\/p>\n<p>Explore:<a href=\"https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/news\/99bitcoins-exclusive-zodia-markets-co-founder-nick-philpott-says-if-you-wait-for-the-regulator-youll-have-no-innovation-at-all\/\"> Zodia Markets Co-founder Nick Philpott Says, \u201cIf you wait for the regulator, you\u2019ll have no innovation at all\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">    <\/p>\n<div class=\"nnbtc-key-takeaways\">\n<h2 class=\"nnbtc-key-takeaways__title\">Key Takeaways<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">    <\/p>\n<ul class=\"nnbtc-key-takeaways__list\">\n        <\/ul>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">    <\/p>\n<li class=\"nnbtc-key-takeaways__list-item\">\n         Institutional digital asset management company, XBTO, announced a strategic partnership with Arab Bank Switzerland, to launch a sophisticated Bitcoin yield product for its wealth management clients.<\/li>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><br \/>\n    <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">    <\/p>\n<li class=\"nnbtc-key-takeaways__list-item\">\n         The partnership is part of a broader trend of banks integrating structured BTC yield products into wealth management services.<\/li>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><br \/>\n    <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><br \/>\n    <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">    <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>    <\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/news\/bitcoin-btc\/one-btc-is-still-one-btc-but-all-the-other-assets-are-deprecating-against-bitcoin-says-arab-bank-switzerlands-head-of-digital-assets\/\">\u201cOne BTC is still one BTC, but all the other assets are deprecating against Bitcoin,\u201d Says Arab Bank Switzerland\u2019s Head of Digital Assets<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/\">99Bitcoins<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cGuess what!
