Justin Sun: I Don’t Control Bitcoin (WBTC)

Instead of continuing with the current U.S.-based arrangement, custody will now be split between places like Singapore and Hong Kong. Justin Sun has made it clear what his position is in the WBTC ecosystem in spite of these adjustments, stating that it is solely strategic. He claims that the private keys linked to the WBTC reserves are not under his control.

BitGo continues to be responsible for the administration and security of these reserves, employing the same reliable cold wallet technology that has been proven to protect WBTC assets. Discussions about Sun’s strategic involvement are crucial, especially given his potential power over the joint venture that will oversee WBTC.

But he promises that the current security protocols hold with backups spread throughout several locations and BitGo’s offline keys and cold wallets still protecting WBTC’s reserves. This guarantees that no one, not even Sun, will be able to move or access the BTC reserves without official permission.

Aware of the potential risks associated with consolidating influence over such a large asset, BA Labs has advised the Stability Facilitator to take steps to restrict the growth of WBTC exposure in light of the recent changes. The community will be closely watching how these modifications to WBTC’s governance and custody arrangements affect the larger ecosystem while the cryptocurrency market keeps an eye on these developments.
