@BitGo has joined the Fortune 500 in its debut year as a public company. The digital asset infrastructure firm entered the list at No. 273, reporting $16.2 billion in revenue for 2025, just five months after listing on the New York Stock Exchange on January 22, 2026 as the first publicly traded, federally chartered digital asset infrastructure company.
Regulatory Milestones Behind the Ranking
Two regulatory achievements set the stage for the Fortune ranking. In December 2025, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency granted final approval for BitGo Bank and Trust, National Association, to operate as a national trust bank. That charter sets BitGo apart from peers still operating under state money transmitter licences and gave it access to the federal banking system, a milestone that had eluded many crypto firms during years of regulatory uncertainty.
BitGo now serves over 5,500 clients across more than 100 countries. Industry observers have increasingly pointed to infrastructure providers as a key component of the next phase of digital asset adoption, noting that institutional investors typically require regulated custody, security, and governance capabilities before deploying capital into the sector.
470,000 $BTC and the Scale of Institutional Custody
The figure that sharpens the picture is BitGo's Bitcoin holdings. The company has disclosed it safeguards over 470,000 $BTC on behalf of clients, placing it among the largest Bitcoin custodians on earth. BitGo's annual SEC Form 10-K filing reported $81.6 billion in total assets on platform as of December 31, 2025, across more than 1,770 digital assets.
Since 2013, BitGo has focused on building regulated infrastructure for the digital asset economy. The broader takeaway is a simple one: the infrastructure layer of the crypto industry has reached Fortune 500 scale before $BTC prices have recovered to prior highs. The plumbing went mainstream first.
