Wealth99 Partners with NAB-Backed Zodia Custody

When it comes to safeguarding your wealth, we know there’s no room for compromise. 

That’s why we’re thrilled to announce our partnership with Zodia—Australia’s leading bank-backed, licensed custodian for digital assets.

Zodia brings together the reliability of traditional banking with the cutting-edge technology necessary to protect your digital holdings. Supported by global financial institutions like Standard Chartered and National Australia Bank (NAB), Zodia offers institutional-grade security, regulation, and trust, ensuring your assets are safeguarded with the highest standards.

Why This Partnership Matters

This isn’t just about enhancing security—it’s a significant leap forward for the digital asset industry as a whole. The world of digital assets has evolved quickly, bringing with it new opportunities, but also new risks. While crypto offers incredible wealth-building potential, it also poses challenges in maintaining long-term security. Billions have been lost due to hacks, misplaced private keys, and unreliable custody solutions. We’re tackling these issues head-on, offering a level of protection that goes far beyond self-custody or exchange wallets.

Changing the Industry, One Step at a Time

For years, Australia has faced challenges when it comes to asset protection, but this partnership with Zodia marks a pivotal step toward solving them. By introducing institutional-grade custodianship, we’re shaping a future where the security of digital assets is held to the same high standards as traditional financial assets.

We’re truly proud to be part of this shift, empowering you as an investor to grow your wealth with confidence, knowing your investments are supported by trusted infrastructure.

Understanding Custody: What’s at Stake?

Not all custody solutions are created equal. As we’ve seen with self-custody and exchange solutions, relying on these alone can leave your assets vulnerable. Here’s a look at the three main types of custody options available:

Self-Custody
What it is: You store your crypto yourself, typically on a hardware wallet.
Risks: If you lose your wallet or forget your password, your assets are gone—there’s no insurance or recovery options.
Analogy: It’s like hiding cash under your mattress—your responsibility, but a risky move with no protection.

Exchange Custody
What it is: Your assets are stored by an exchange or third-party provider.
Risks: Exchanges are often targets for hackers, and their security and insurance measures are frequently insufficient.
Analogy: It’s like storing your cash in a personal safe at home—safer than under the mattress, but still vulnerable to external threats.

Licensed Custody
What it is: Your crypto is stored by a licensed custodian with high-level security, backed by regulatory oversight and institutional support.
Benefits: Insured against theft, loss, or hacks, with regular audits and top-tier security like cold storage and multi-layer encryption.
Analogy: It’s like storing your wealth in a bank—trusted, secure, and protected with the highest standards of regulation.

Why Licensed Custody is a Game-Changer

At Wealth99, we firmly believe in the importance of licensed custody. Unlike self-custody or exchange storage, which expose you to unnecessary risks, licensed custodians like Zodia provide peace of mind by offering unparalleled protection for your digital assets.

Here’s what makes licensed custodians stand out:

• Regulation & Oversight: Compliance with local and global regulations ensures the highest protection standards.
• Insurance & Security: Your assets are insured against theft, loss, or hacks, with industry-leading security measures such as cold storage and multi-layer encryption.
• Long-Term Viability: As the digital asset space evolves, Zodia ensures that your assets remain secure, compliant, and adaptable to regulatory changes.

What This Means for You

With this partnership, we’re continuing to develop and build upon the top-tier security measures already in place—giving you even more confidence in safeguarding your wealth, both now and in the future. Here’s what this transition means for you:

• Top-tier Security: Your assets are protected by institutional-grade security, ensuring the same level of protection used in traditional financial systems.
• Peace of Mind: Unlike self-custody or exchange storage, your assets are insured and protected against digital risks, offering greater security in any market condition.
• Future-Proofing Your Wealth: As crypto regulations evolve, Zodia ensures your assets stay compliant, secure, and prepared for future changes.
