Who is Kingdom Trust?
Kingdom Trust was an independent custodian regulated by the South Dakota Division of Banking. Since its founding in 2009, Kingdom Trust specialized in unique and innovative custody solutions for individual investors, investment sponsors, family offices, advisory firms, broker-dealers and other investment platforms, and held billions in assets on behalf of thousands of account holders.
In 2017 Kingdom Trust became the first custodian to offer custody for bitcoin and quietly began powering an emerging industry for holding bitcoin in retirement accounts. Since then, thousands of clients relied on Kingdom Trust for this service which made it an important driver of business.
In 2024, Kingdom Trust merged with Digital Trust. Digital Trust is a modern custodian, built on a robust tech foundation to meet the dynamic demands of modern investors. Our combined team, a blend of pioneers in both alternative and digital asset custody continues to prioritize trust, safety, and innovation, and we're eager to advance our mission together as Digital Trust.
What is Choice?
In 2020 Kingdom Trust launched Choice, an app for investing in bitcoin and digital assets inside qualified accounts alongside traditional securities like stocks and ETFs.
We believe that saving should be easy, and shouldn't require multiple accounts at different providers to invest in both traditional and alternative assets. We also believe that everyone should be able to benefit from the tax-efficiencies that structures like IRAs and trusts can afford.
How are Choice and Digital Trust related?
