Global Digital Finance and Block, in partnership with TRM Labs and Coinbase, are pleased to announce the publication of the Report on Self-Custody Wallets and Their Role in Digital Finance.
As digital assets continue to become an increasingly important component of the global financial system, the treatment of self-custody wallets has emerged as a significant policy and regulatory issue. This report seeks to contribute to that discussion through an evidence-based assessment of how self-custody wallets are used in practice and the role they play within the evolving digital finance ecosystem.
The report draws upon original transaction-level analysis covering more than 300,000 self-custody wallet addresses, representing approximately USD 41 billion in transaction volume across multiple blockchain networks, alongside industry data and publicly available research.
