Across global markets bitcoin is emerging as a strategic treasury asset, core to modern capital allocation and diversification. Firms like Figma, Tesla, and Block (Square) already hold BTC on their balance sheets as a long-term, internet-native store of value.

But for most companies the infrastructure required to hold and manage bitcoin has been too complex, too manual and too disconnected from existing treasury systems.



That gap has stopped most companies from adding BTC to their balance sheet. Altitude changes that today.

Bitcoin is now a first-class asset at Altitude

You can hold, trade and manage bitcoin within your Altitude account. Treasury diversification becomes as simple as clicking “Trade,” no opening new accounts, new custodians or new operational overhead.

This is enabled through cbBTC, a fungible token backed 1:1 by bitcoin held in custody by Coinbase. Real-time proof of reserves gives anyone the ability to verify the status of the underlying bitcoin reserves held by Coinbase.

Why now

Altitude is a global business account for stablecoin treasury management: global pay-ins and pay-outs, 24/7 FX, yield and approval workflows. Adding bitcoin gives companies a single platform for both short-term working capital and long-duration reserve assets.

Bitcoin has delivered a ~70%+ CAGR over the past decade, but until now, holding it required stitching together custody, compliance, and controls across multiple vendors. Altitude brings enterprise-grade infrastructure to businesses who want to manage both their stablecoins and bitcoin holdings in one platform.

Business Finance at Altitude

With this release, bitcoin enters Altitude’s ecosystem. Coinbase’s cbBTC will plug directly into the same workflows that already power your stablecoin operations, becoming a fully integrated part of how your business runs finance.
