<p class="is-style-lead">21.co, the parent company of 21Shares, has announced a strategic partnership with Crypto.com.</p>
<p class="is-style-default">The collaboration will enhance liquidity and custody solutions for 21.co’s wrapped tokens, starting with its wrapped Bitcoin (<a href="https://crypto.news/price/bitcoin/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">BTC</a>).</p>
<p>Wrapped tokens like <a href="https://crypto.news/21co-rolls-out-wrapped-bitcoin-on-ethereum-blockchain/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">21BTC</a> allow users to use Bitcoin on other blockchains, such as Ethereum (<a href="https://crypto.news/price/ethereum/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">ETH</a>), by “wrapping” the original asset in a smart contract.&nbsp;</p>
<p>This allows users to benefit from Bitcoin’s value while also interacting with <a href="https://crypto.news/tag/DeFi" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">decentralized finance</a> applications. DeFi is a system of financial services built on blockchain technology, offering alternatives to traditional financial services without intermediaries like banks.</p>

<p>This partnership will allow 21.co to leverage <a href="https://crypto.news/tag/crypto.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Crypto.com’s</a> vast liquidity pool, meaning that the exchange will help provide Bitcoin to back 21BTC tokens. Crypto.com will also offer competitive fees and advanced trading technology, helping 21.co improve the efficiency of its wrapped Bitcoin product.</p>
<p>Eliezer Ndinga, Head of Strategy at 21.co, highlighted the significance of integrating 21BTC with Crypto.com, citing it as a key step in improving crypto accessibility for users.&nbsp;</p>

 <p>“Crypto.com is one of the world’s largest digital assets exchanges serving over 100 million users globally. As one of the world’s largest issuers of crypto ETPs, 21.co brings asset management best practices and operational excellence to the world of wrapped assets.”</p>
