BitGo integrates DeFi protocols through Narval partnership

BitGo Bank & Trust announced the integration of three decentralized finance protocols—Aave, Spark, and Tesseract—through a partnership with Narval's institutional DeFi gateway. The integration allows eligible institutional clients to access these protocols directly from BitGo qualified custody wallets.

BitGo Holdings (NYSE: BTGO) subsidiary BitGo Bank & Trust operates as an OCC-regulated digital asset trust bank. The integration maintains institutional-grade security, governance, and policy-based approval controls while enabling DeFi access.

"Institutions want access to DeFi, but they need a path that meets their security, governance, and operational requirements," said Mike Belshe, CEO and Co-founder of BitGo. "Our integration with Narval helps clients connect to approved DeFi protocols directly from BitGo custody, combining transaction verification and whitelisting controls with BitGo's regulated custody infrastructure."

Narval's DeFi Gateway provides transaction integrity verification, delegated wallet connectivity, and an embedded dApp SDK. The system decodes transaction details into human-readable form and checks proposed interactions against approved protocols and contract addresses before reaching the signing or custody approval workflow.

Aave operates as a decentralized liquidity protocol enabling users to supply digital assets to earn rewards and borrow against collateral. Spark functions as an onchain savings and lending protocol providing access to stablecoin and ETH-denominated credit markets. Tesseract offers institutional access to onchain earnings through Dedicated Client Vaults managed under its MiCA authorization.

The companies indicated additional protocols will be available in the future. Information is based on a press release statement from BitGo Holdings.
