Ceffu, a compliant institutional custodian and over-the-counter (OTC) trading partner of Binance, has officially unveiled its third institutional wallet solution: the Co-Sign Wallet. This innovative offering enhances transaction control for institutional users by requiring approval from two out of three shared private keys, with one key securely tied to the user’s personal device selected during wallet setup.
This co-signature mechanism strikes a balance between security and efficiency—users can approve transactions instantly, significantly accelerating trade execution, while still benefiting from the robust security standards powered by Multi-Party Computation (MPC) technology and asset isolation protocols.
Enhanced Security Meets Operational Efficiency
The Co-Sign Wallet introduces a sophisticated signing model where no single party holds complete control over fund movements. Instead, transaction authorization requires consensus among key holders—two of three private keys must sign off, including the one bound to the user’s designated personal device.
This design ensures that even if one key is compromised, assets remain protected. At the same time, it eliminates the delays often associated with traditional multi-sig setups, enabling institutions to act swiftly on market opportunities without sacrificing safety.

Built on MPC cryptography, the wallet fragments private keys across multiple parties without ever reconstructing them in a single location. This means there is no central point of failure—a critical advantage for organizations managing large-scale digital asset portfolios.
Expanding a Comprehensive Wallet Ecosystem
Prior to this launch, Ceffu offered two distinct wallet types tailored to different operational needs:
- Qualified Wallet: A foundational cold storage solution designed for maximum security. Ideal for long-term asset holding with minimal exposure to network vulnerabilities.
- Prime Wallet: A hybrid model combining elements of hot and cold wallets, optimized for trading firms seeking seamless connectivity and scalability via Binance’s order book.
With the addition of the Co-Sign Wallet, Ceffu now provides a full spectrum of custody options—ranging from ultra-secure offline storage to agile, real-time transaction-capable systems.
Each wallet type supports customizable approval workflows, allowing institutions to define internal access policies based on role, risk tolerance, and operational requirements.
Seamless Integration with Mirror OTC Settlement
A key differentiator of the Co-Sign Wallet is its native compatibility with Mirror, Ceffu’s flagship OTC settlement product. Mirror establishes a trusted three-way arrangement between Ceffu, the client, and Binance Exchange, enabling institutional investors to trade directly against Binance’s deep liquidity pool—the largest in the crypto industry—while keeping assets securely off-exchange at all times.
This setup mitigates counterparty risk and reduces slippage on large orders, making it ideal for hedge funds, family offices, and high-volume traders.
Even the Qualified Wallet can leverage Mirror’s capabilities, but the integration with the Co-Sign Wallet unlocks faster execution cycles due to reduced signing latency. The combined solution allows institutions to deploy complex trading strategies—such as arbitrage, hedging, or portfolio rebalancing—across exchanges with enhanced speed and precision.
“We spent considerable time engaging with clients, gathering feedback on their product experience, and listening to their needs around account security and usability,” said Athena Yu, Vice President at Ceffu. “After months of development, testing, and incorporating user insights, we’re proud to introduce this new solution—a balanced approach that enables shared key ownership without compromising security or accessibility. We believe this new model, especially when paired with Mirror, makes our latest wallet a highly competitive custodial offering.”
Driving Strategic Flexibility for Institutional Traders
Institutional users leveraging the Co-Sign Wallet gain greater autonomy in transaction management. By streamlining the approval process without weakening security layers, organizations can:
- Seize arbitrage opportunities across exchanges
- Execute time-sensitive trades with minimal delay
- Automate parts of their treasury operations within defined governance rules
- Maintain full compliance while operating at scale
These advantages are particularly valuable in volatile markets where milliseconds can determine profitability.
Moreover, because each user’s personal device holds one of the three keys, organizations retain decentralized control—reducing reliance on centralized signers or custodians for routine operations.
