According to CoinMeta, Bitcoin infrastructure company Blockstream has collaborated with French technology group Thales to launch an institutional digital asset custody solution. This solution combines the hardware security module of Thales with the secure multi-party computing technology of Blockstream, and executes the full signing protocol within the protected environment of the hardware security module. Adam Back, the founder of Blockstream, stated that traditional multi-party computing protocols are complex and require frequent device communications, making them difficult to use for fully offline cold storage. Institutions should adopt cold storage to reduce the risk of network attacks and potential AI assisted attacks.
