SAN FRANCISCO, May 22, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — YourOwn has partnered with Hoseki to launch integrated Bitcoin verification within its financial identity wallet, enabling users to prove and utilize crypto holdings alongside traditional assets. This innovation bridges traditional finance (TradFi) and decentralized finance (DeFi), establishing a unified, verifiable, and secure financial identity.
By embedding Hoseki’s proof-of-ownership service, YourOwn empowers individuals and institutions to manage traditional and digital assets on a single, trusted platform. Bitcoin is no longer siloed—it’s treated as a core financial primitive, ready for lending, planning, and tax workflows.
“This is a turning point for financial identity,” said Sam Abbassi, CEO of Hoseki. “Together with YourOwn, we’re delivering infrastructure that makes digital assets verifiable, usable, and powerful within traditional finance.”
Pioneering Financial Identity
YourOwn lets users consolidate bank accounts, brokerage portfolios, tax records, and now verified crypto holdings in one encrypted wallet—ready to share with lenders, advisors, or institutions in seconds. This integration responds to a shift in expectations: investors increasingly demand that digital assets be as usable as any other part of their balance sheet.
With over 10,000 downloads and a growing marketplace—including Coinbase, Gemini, H&R Block, Trust & Will, and Consumers Credit Union—YourOwn is becoming essential infrastructure for the financial ecosystem.
