Federally chartered crypto bank Anchorage Digital has acquired the Securitize For Advisors (SFA) business unit from Securitize, bringing in-house a crypto wealth management platform built for registered investment advisors (RIAs), the company said in a press release Monday.

The acquisition formalizes an existing relationship between the two firms. Anchorage Digital Bank already custodies 99% of Securitize For Advisors client assets, and SFA has been operating on top of Anchorage’s infrastructure.
“RIAs are driving one of the most important waves of crypto adoption. By bringing together Anchorage Digital’s federally regulated custody platform with SFA’s technology and expertise, we’re building the premier solution for wealth managers and their clients," Anchorage Digital co-founder and CEO Nathan McCauley said in the release.
The transaction underscores the firms’ existing partnership and gives Anchorage Digital a more defined role in wealth management, adding a unified platform that brings together trading, custody and client-facing tools for advisors while allowing Securitize to concentrate on its tokenization business.
Tokenization is the process of turning real-world assets such as stocks, bonds, real estate, private equity and art into digital tokens recorded on a blockchain.
Carlos Domingo, co-founder and CEO of Securitize, stated that the move is intended to enable Securitize to focus on its core tokenization business while providing SFA with more dedicated resources under Anchorage.
The deal is Anchorage Digital’s second acquisition of 2025, following its purchase of stablecoin issuer Mountain Protocol in May.
SFA, launched in 2021, allows RIAs to offer digital asset exposure to clients. Over the past 12 months, the platform’s net new deposits and assets under management have increased by more than 4,500%, according to the companies, compared with a 16% expansion rate for the RIA industry as a whole.
