Crypto Insurer BDIC & Fireblocks Announce Partnership Expanding Crypto Insurance and Digital Asset Security
Hong Kong, Hong Kong, July 31st, 2026
Blockchain Deposit Insurance Corporation (BDIC Insurance/BDIC HK LTD), a leading provider of crypto insurance solutions for digital asset custodians, exchanges, and enterprise self-custody wallet platforms, today announced its strategic operational collaboration with Fireblocks, the enterprise platform securing more than $14 trillion in digital asset transactions. The agreement enables BDIC Insurance to integrate Fireblocks’ secure custody, payments, and tokenization technologies into its underwriting and risk-assessment workflows, delivering stronger security assurances for the aforementioned institutions and driving broader adoption of insured crypto assets and services.

This alliance pairs BDIC Insurance’s cryptocurrency coverage solutions for wallets, exchanges, and enterprise self-custody platforms with Fireblocks’ proven infrastructure, an industry standard for banks, fintechs, payment processors, and institutions running digital asset custody. By leveraging Fireblocks’ patented Multi-Party Computation (MPC) custody, tokenization tooling, and global payments rails, BDIC Insurance enhances its ability to evaluate, insure, and support clients using modern, resilient security controls and operational capabilities.
“Fireblocks was built to help institutions move, store, and issue digital assets with the security and operational rigor expected by regulated financial firms,” said Jeffrey A. Glusman, CEO & Founder of BDIC Insurance. “By integrating Fireblocks into our underwriting and coverage workflows, we’re enabling customers to demonstrate the controls and resilience insurers require. This was a critical step for BDIC in scaling insured digital asset services across banks, custodians, fintechs, and enterprise self‑custody wallet platforms.”
When asked about the key benefits of the collaboration, the focus on enhanced underwriting confidence was the primary point of interest discussed. Representatives commented on how BDIC Insurance will incorporate Fireblocks’ MPC-based custody architecture, operational controls, and auditability features into its risk-assessment framework. According to BDIC, this enables more precise underwriting, tailored policy terms, and faster coverage issuance for institutional partners. Further comments expanding on security and risk control were also made. The company CISO pointed out that reduced systemic single-point-of-failure risk is being addressed as a key takeaway.
“By recognizing Fireblocks’ patented MPC approach, BDIC Insurance can better quantify and mitigate cryptographic key compromise risk,” said Allen Sautter, CIO & CISO of BDIC. He commented further on how this aspect is a critical driver of premium-setting and policy scope for wallets, exchanges, and enterprise self-custody wallet platforms. The CISO continued: “Security and operational excellence are non‑negotiable for institutions that custody or move digital assets. Working with Fireblocks allows BDIC to align insurance coverage with best‑in‑class infrastructure practices. Our policyholders and their customers benefit from stronger technical controls and clearer risk transfer, while markets benefit from reduced friction in accessing the platform services.”
There seems to be little doubt that stronger claims management and incident response alignment were also a focus of the partnership. Overall, the message was clear that by integrating the platform’s operational controls, BDIC Insurance can streamline incident investigations, claims validation, and remediation planning when security events occur in a more effective and fluid manner.
Why is Fireblocks an ideal vendor for the crypto insurance provider?
The question was asked directly, and while most know that Fireblocks is already widely used across financial services to secure digital asset operations, its enterprise platform addresses multiple institutional needs as well. Custody is the top-line reason, but the deeper value is in the signing model. Fireblocks splits cryptographic control across separate enclaves, so internal teams, service providers, and smart contracts can all participate in a transaction without any single party ever holding a complete key.
The Fireblocks platform also supports existing stablecoin and cross-border payments in more than 100 countries through a large network of partners and clients. This is another benefit, as while BDIC will be serving clients in the US, their go-to-market strategy is global, providing coverage in LatAm, PanAsia, Europe, Africa, Australia, India, and beyond, so this collaboration was equally important for executing globally as much as anything.
Further comments on the alliance and its implications for exchanges, custodians, banks, fintechs, and enterprise self-custody wallet platforms were based on business-metric benefits. The foremost being that BDIC will be able to design policy terms that reflect the reduced technical risk profile of Fireblocks-enabled operations, potentially improving coverage limits, pricing, and deductible structures.
The last point of interest focused on the crypto industry as a whole and global adoption, highlighting the need for more education and awareness of the benefits of using cryptocurrency in a utility mindset on a daily basis. BDIC sees the confidence for counterparties and customers being second to none as financial institutions, exchanges, custodians, and enterprise self‑custody wallet providers can market that their services are both powered by enterprise‑grade infrastructure via FireBlocks and backed by tailored BDIC Insurance for their needs. BDIC believes that improving trust among institutional clients, retail users, and counterparties (as well as regulators) is of utmost importance as the industry welcomes the missing layer of insurance to crypto adoption.
This news seems to indicate what is to come next for the crypto insurance provider, as prior news indicated platform provider onboarding in Q3/Q4, with the company’s BDIC utility coin launch coinciding with that timeline as well. The representatives’ closing comments point to expected additional news about other industry alliances and collaborations as BDIC officially rolls out its platform.
