Assets in your self-directed IRA on our platform may not be held in your personal wallet. IRS regulations require that IRA accounts are held by a custodian.
iTrustCapital is a software platform that utilizes a third-party Qualified Custodian, Fortress Trust, to custody client assets. Fortress Trust is a regulated state-chartered trust company. As Qualified Custodian, it holds client assets in individual retirement accounts solely for the benefit of each client.
Fortress utilizes proprietary technology to custody digital assets, including BitGo and Fireblocks.
Highlights include:
- Multi-Party Computation (MPC)
- Offline Cold Storage
- Providers undergo regular security and financial audits by external firms and have been awarded SOC 2 Type II certifications
- Commercial Crime Insurance Policy
Client assets are never mixed with operating funds and therefore are not available to satisfy the obligations of iTrustCapital or its custodian.
