Anchorage Digital Launches Full-Stack Token Management Solution to Power the Next Generation of Protocol Growth

Protocols can now manage their entire token cap table effortlessly and with institutional-grade security powered by Anchorage Digital.

As a partner for the most innovative blockchain protocols, our mission is to give builders the infrastructure and time they need to scale, without getting bogged down on operational complexity. Managing token allocations, distributions, and vesting are critical pieces of the work leading up to—and following—a token generation event. However, the process remains highly manual and error-prone. Pre-TGE, teams typically track allocations on spreadsheets and manually do hundreds of follow-ups to collect the right wallet information. Post-TGE, they must manage token distributions while focusing on keeping their tokens secure and growing their project.

Our new comprehensive token management solution aims to directly address this challenge. It saves protocol teams time and reduces risk of errors, while helping build trust with investors and offering peace of mind around the security of their tokens. Employees and investors can track their tokens and vesting schedules effortlessly, while their tokens stay secure in Anchorage Digital’s custody.

This new offering is made possible by the recent integration of the Hedgey team and technology into Anchorage Digital. With Hedgey’s cap table management expertise and Anchorage Digital’s institutional infrastructure, protocol teams get a complete, secure solution to power their growth.

Preparing for the token generation event: no more building with spreadsheets

Anchorage Digital’s comprehensive cap table management solutions offer protocols and their investors white-glove support, complete automation, and institutional-grade security at any stage of their lifecycle. 

Pre-TGE, protocols can eliminate manual processes and risk of error.

• Track everything from a single powerful dashboard: See all allocations, vesting cliffs, and grant types in real time. Never worry about discovering you’re over-allocated at the eleventh hour.
• Automate stakeholder management: Make manual email follow-ups obsolete. Automate the secure collection of necessary information, like wallet addresses and delivery preferences from all investors and employees.
• Cover your entire token cap table: Manage every distribution, from giving institutional VCs a white-glove onboarding experience to managing flexible OBO (On Behalf Of) lock-ups for independent participants.
• Manage vesting schedules and lock-ups with granular controls: Configure everything based on your needs, including custom vesting schedules, grant types, 83(b) elections, and more.

Post-launch: institutional-grade security, reduced risk and complexity

Security remains a foundational element of trust for years following your protocol’s launch. Once your token is live, Anchorage Digital’s job is to protect your momentum and your tokens. We’ve built a platform to do just that, which has to date kept billions in assets secure for the world’s leading institutions.

• Secure your distributions: Execute token vests and distributions based on your schedule. You can choose to keep and distribute tokens from Anchorage Digital’s secure custody, trusted by the world’s leading institutions
• Give your investors a seamless experience: Your investors have an intuitive interface to track their allocations and vesting schedules.
• Customize distribution choices: Flexibility to connect with your preferred providers. We support off-chain integrations with partners like Magna to ensure a seamless workflow regardless of your stack.

“Founders should be focused on growing their product, community, and adoption—not operational risk. When you’re dealing with token economics, especially with institutional investors, the infrastructure you choose defines your credibility. Our token cap table management solution removes friction and errors, allowing teams to move with the speed of crypto and the confidence provided by a regulated partner”
— Nathan McCauley, Co-Founder and CEO, Anchorage Digital

Building together

The Hedgey team has joined Anchorage Digital, bringing their token vesting expertise to continue serving protocols and eliminating critical pain points under one umbrella. Following the acquisition, Hedgey has created a new platform, Hedgeypro.com, integrated with and purpose-built for Anchorage Digital. 

We are combining our strengths to service every employee and investor on a protocol's cap table with our powerful UI and industry-leading custody.

“Hedgey was the best team we worked with for our TGE. Their technical setup was well organized, but what really set them apart was their availability and responsiveness. The frequency of calls, quick turnarounds, and how they collaborated with our team really stood out. During our busiest periods, they operated like an integrated part of the BOB team.

They also provided valuable guidance on our overall TGE strategy, beyond just token vesting and security. Our community and investors were pleased with the platform. The UI is intuitive and straightforward, which streamlined investor onboarding and maintained a professional standard. If I could do it again, the only thing I would do differently is bring them in from day one.”
