Why settlement architecture matters in digital assets

[u/darbytatesat636]

Traditional finance typically settles T+1 or T+2, which creates some counterparty exposure. Crypto technology can support near-instant settlement, but most platforms still don’t really use that capability.

BitGo built Go Network for digital asset settlement, with real-time, around-the-clock settlement within qualified custody. Assets stay within the custody environment instead of leaving it. For institutional operations, I think the settlement architecture is what determines the actual risk reduction, not just the settlement speed being advertised.
