Rakkar Digital, Asia’s leading qualified digital asset custodian, has been appointed as custodian by Maxbit, a licensed digital asset brokerage company based in Thailand and a joint venture of PTG Energy Public Company Limited (PTG), the second-largest fuel trader in Thailand listed on The Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET).

Arthit Sriumporn, Founder and CEO of Rakkar Digital, echoed the sentiment, saying, “As institutional adoption continues to grow as with the recent spot Bitcoin ETF approvals, clarity in regulations and tighter asset security requirements are expected to come. Rakkar Digital, as a trusted and qualified digital asset custodian, envisions to be a strategic growth partner for institutions such as Maxbit to achieve compliance, security, and agility.”

This appointment came shortly after the recent announcement of Rakkar Digital’s appointment by InnovestX Securities as custodian.
