Singapore – 27 March, 2026 Solv Protocol, the largest onchain Bitcoin reserve overseeing over $1 billion in BTC assets, today announces the founding multi-sig partners participating in its FROST Network governance committee. This follows the successful January 29, 2026 upgrade of SolvBTC to a FROST-based architecture. As SolvBTC scales beyond $1 billion in reserves and sees increasing cross-ecosystem utilization, this distributed governance model, anchored by the FROST governing committee, ensures resilient security and auditable controls across both Bitcoin mainnet custody and on-chain liquidity execution, preventing single-party risks even at higher volumes and institutional inflows.
Solv’s FROST Network, built on Flexible Round-Optimized Schnorr Threshold signatures standard, is live with independent institutional signers acting as the governing committee, eliminating single points of failure and enabling secure, high-availability execution at scale.
Founding Institutional Partners in the Multi-Sig FROST Committee Network:
- Solv Protocol – The largest on-chain bitcoin reserve anchored across 19+ ecosystems
- Antalpha – Enterprise-grade infrastructure from the Ant Group ecosystem
- Spartan Group – Leading crypto venture fund managing $500M+ in AUM with deep Bitcoin expertise
- Apollo – Institutional capital of $1B in AUM and risk-management focused operator
- UOB Ventures – Regulated APAC financial institution with $2B+ AUM
- Gumi – Japanese Web3 leader bridging TradFi and crypto
- IOSG – Early Solv backer with strong governance and ecosystem experience
Their participation signals strong institutional backing for Solv’s FROST initiative. These scaled operators strengthen decentralization and governance resilience while maintaining purely Bitcoin-native settlement.
Bitcoin’s rapid growth observed in recent years, from roughly $300M to $6.5B in BTCFi TVL in 2024, reaching nearly $10B by mid-2025, while tokenized U.S. Treasuries surpassed $10B by February 2026, calls for higher demand for more robust and secure Bitcoin infrastructure. FROST meets that need by enabling threshold signing and distributed control over critical operations, reducing single points of failure while delivering the security, governance, and operational resilience required to scale Bitcoin products credibly.
FROST’s Role in Zero-Trust SolvBTC Decentralized Governance Model
The multi-sig committee is underpinned by FROST, serving as an institutional-grade authorization layer for SolvBTC’s governance.
The committee of independent institutional signers collectively authorizes critical actions across SolvBTC’s Bitcoin-native custody and issuance stack. This mirrors traditional finance’s separation of duties but enforces it cryptographically. Operational safeguards include:
- Diversified vaulting to reduce concentration risk
- Real-time monitoring for transparency
- Independent auditing for policy enforcement and high-risk approvals
- Governed execution flows with built-in contrfols and time delays.
These principles extend to SolvBTC’s liquidity operations. The committee approves key permissions and configurations for liquidity contracts, maintaining consistent governance from custody through onchain execution.
The result is a unified, reliable governance layer that reduces single-operator risk, strengthens institutional confidence. Solv is establishing the institutional benchmark for scalable Bitcoin execution: all withdrawals are cryptographically gated by the FROST governing committee members, The outcome is genuine Bitcoin-native finality underpinned by true zero-trust principles, elevating the standard for secure and resilient BTC mobility throughout ecosystems.
