Paxos

Enterprises seeking regulated access to digital asset infrastructure face a fragmented landscape where many providers lack credible regulatory standing. Paxos sits in a distinct position: it holds a limited purpose trust charter from the New York Department of Financial Services (NYDFS), a Major Payments Institution license from the Monetary Authority of Singapore, and national-level oversight from the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC). For family offices and institutional clients that require counterparty credibility, this multi-jurisdictional regulatory stack is the core differentiator.

Paxos operates as a blockchain infrastructure provider focused on tokenization, custody, trading, and settlement of digital assets for enterprise clients. Its product suite spans several use cases relevant to sophisticated investors:

• Crypto Brokerage: qualified custody, licensing, and trading infrastructure
• Stablecoin Payments: global stablecoin acceptance and payouts
• Pax Gold (PAXG): tokenized gold backed 1:1 by one fine troy ounce stored in LBMA vaults
• Pax Dollar (USDP): a USD-backed stablecoin with bankruptcy-remote reserve protections
• Global Dollar (USDG): an enterprise-focused stablecoin network

Paxos issues stablecoins where reserves are held bankruptcy-remote and fully segregated, meaning the underlying asset remains accessible even in an insolvency scenario. Its institutional client roster includes PayPal, Interactive Brokers, Bank of America, and MasterCard. Offices are maintained in New York, London, and Singapore. Pricing is not publicly disclosed, and the platform is structured for enterprise onboarding rather than self-service access. Family offices evaluating digital asset exposure through a regulated custodial or infrastructure layer will find Paxos a credible option; those seeking a managed investment product or portfolio advisory service will need to look elsewhere.
