The bank reportedly plans to target institutional investors for managing investments in such cryptocurrencies as bitcoin (EXANTE: Bitcoin) and ether (ETH). As iHodl earlier reported, the custodian also planned to offer services for litecoin (LTC), bitcoin cash (BCH) and XRP. However, it remains unclear if XRP is still on the list after the SEC's lawsuit.
As Alex Manson, the Head of SC Ventures, earlier said, approximately 20 institutions have already expressed interest in the custodial solution.
