Anchorage Digital, the first U.S. crypto company to receive a federal banking charter from the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC), is expanding its business as more crypto firms seek entry into regulated banking.
Earlier this week, Anchorage announced the acquisition of Securitize For Advisors (SFA), a digital asset management platform for registered investment advisors (RIAs) operated by Securitize. Prior to the deal, 99% of SFA client assets were already held in custody by Anchorage, making the acquisition a logical next step that strengthens Anchorage’s crypto wealth management and institutional services offering.
On Tuesday, Anchorage Digital announced its second acquisition of the week—the purchase of Hedgey, a startup developing solutions for token capital allocation management. Hedgey provides a platform for managing token distributions, payouts, and vesting schedules, simplifying token generation events (TGEs) and post-launch token tracking.
The financial terms of the deal, as with the Securitize acquisition announced on Monday, were not disclosed.
“Founders should focus on building their product, community, and adoption — not operational risk,” said Anchorage CEO Nathan McCauley. “When dealing with tokenomics, especially with institutional investors, the infrastructure you choose defines your reputation.”
According to McCauley, by integrating Hedgey and onboarding its experienced team, Anchorage aims to reduce the “friction and errors” commonly associated with cap table management.
In a post on X, the company noted that the newly acquired platform can help startups secure “their entire cap table,” streamline “best-in-class onboarding,” and manage distributions with granular control over grant types and tax elections.
In addition, the crypto bank is prepared to offer custody and staking support, market-making strategies, and comprehensive treasury management for both fiat and digital assets.
