The Canadian custodian stores crypto assets in secure vaults distributed across multiple locations in North America. Their hardware security modules are stored in access-controlled facilities while all private keys are generated and stored offline, as well as backed up in multiple copies to prevent accidental loss.
After QuadrigaCX crisis, the crypto exchange that was shut down following the sudden death of its founder, the Canadian crypto community has been skeptical about similar platforms. The five-year-old business reportedly misplaced another $500,000 in cold wallets. Court documents say the $190 million in missing cryptocurrency is locked in offline digital wallets while the late CEO was the only person who had the password to the company’s wallets.
As such, Newton says it recognizes the importance of security in today’s crypto marketplace, calling it a huge part of their strategy.
