Moscow Exchange Plans to Launch Digital Custody Platform, Potentially Supporting Crypto Asset Services by End of 2026 at the Earliest

Odaily News Russia's Moscow Exchange (MOEX) is preparing to launch a digital custody platform (digital depository institution) for cryptocurrency trading. Sources say the project is still in the development stage and is expected to go live as early as late 2026 to early 2027.It is reported that the digital custody platform will not be built on the foundation of the Moscow Exchange itself or its subsidiary, the National Settlement Depository (NSD), but will operate as a brand-new independent structure. As Russia's digital currency regulatory framework is expected to partially take effect on September 1, the market still lacks a clear solution for crypto asset custody and registration mechanisms. Several technical models are currently being discussed within the industry. One approach involves establishing multiple crypto asset liquidity hubs, where brokers can either connect to the Moscow Exchange's digital custody platform or conduct related business through their own digital custody systems. Another approach could see trading platforms handle order matching, while the storage and registration of crypto assets are completed by digital custodians under banks or brokers.Previously, several major Russian banks, including Sberbank, VTB Bank, T-Bank, and Alfa-Bank, have all expressed plans to launch digital custody services. With the Moscow Exchange entering this arena, competition among traditional financial institutions is expected to intensify, potentially driving further improvements in crypto asset services. (RBC)
