VerifiedX taps Crypto.com for custody, OTC services supporting $1.5 billion in assets

VerifiedX, a decentralized Layer 1 network and Bitcoin sidechain, announced Thursday it has selected Crypto.com to provide institutional custody and liquidity solutions for $1.5 billion in assets.

According to a statement, the partnership will allow eligible institutions operating on the VerifiedX (VFX) network to utilize Crypto.com's regulated custody infrastructure to store and manage digital currencies. In addition to cold storage and governance workflows, Crypto.com will provide VerifiedX with over-the-counter (OTC) trading capabilities to facilitate deeper liquidity.

"Crypto.com Custody is specifically designed with expectations of institutional-grade clients," Eric Anziani, president and COO of Crypto.com, said in the statement. "We are pleased to be selected by VerifiedX, a leader in self-custody and digital asset wallet capabilities, to further enhance an established custody offering for all client needs."

VerifiedX, which rebranded from its former name ReserveBlock, positions itself as a "people's network" and functions as both a universal Layer 1 and a Bitcoin-specific sidechain. The network has been building out its infrastructure stack, and allows for the minting of Verified Bitcoin Tokens (vBTC) with a 1:1 self-custodial peg.

The network announced its first partnership with Crypto.com in late September, allowing users of VFX SwitchBlade Wallets to purchase supported cryptocurrencies, including VFX and stablecoins, directly using fiat, and transact with merchants and DApps using Crypto.com Pay.

The price of VFX, the network's native token, has jumped nearly 70% following the announcement of a second partnership with Crypto.com.

Relax, Core v30 Won’t Kill Bitcoin

The post Relax, Core v30 Won’t Kill Bitcoin appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Key Takeaways The rhetoric on Crypto Twitter has been heating up between Core and Knots in the OP_RETURN saga, as Bitcoin news takes on a new route. Despite some back and forth, Blockstream CEO Adam Back declared he would run Bitcoin Core v30 Despite believing the upgrade will open the network to more spam, Bitcoin OG Jimmy Song reminds people panicking that Core v30 won’t kill Bitcoin In case you missed it, the Bitcoin community is in full battle mode over Bitcoin Core v30 and the so-called OP_RETURN drama. Just mention “Core v30” in a crowded Discord and watch the fireworks. On one side, you’ve got the Bitcoin Knots faithful grabbing pitchforks and talking about the soul of the network; on the other, the Core devs, who take a more laissez-faire approach. Bitcoin News: What’s Actually Happening in Core vs Knots At the heart of the storm? Bitcoin Core’s decision to vastly expand the OP_RETURN data limit in Bitcoin Core v30. For years, Bitcoin’s OP_RETURN opcode, a line of script that lets users immutably store tiny amounts of data on the blockchain, was capped at 80 bytes. With Core v30, that ceiling is yanked off, allowing payloads up to the full block size (nearly 4MB). Proponents see big wins here: more flexibility for on-chain applications, support for digital notarization, and enhanced Layer 2 infrastructure. Critics, especially in the Knots camp, warn that this opens the door to chain bloat, endless spam, and a deviation from Bitcoin’s monetary roots. Knots developers, most notably Luke Dashjr and Samson Mow, argue that without limits, Bitcoin risks becoming a dumping ground for arbitrary data. A fate that would make running a node costly and possibly restrict network participation to large players. Since the Core update was finalized, Knots’ market share of full nodes has…
