CoinShares has launched its first commercial OnChain Strategies deployment, letting Safe enterprise users access professionally managed stablecoin-yield strategies without handing custody of their assets to CoinShares.

In its October 14 announcement, CoinShares said the new model combines DeFi yield with returns from tokenized real-world assets. Safe provides the self-custody account layer, while Railnet supplies the on-chain operating infrastructure through Kiln’s integration with Safe.

The key distinction is custody. CoinShares designs the strategies and risk framework but does not take possession of client assets. Safe says its smart accounts are self-custodial smart-contract wallets, so users retain control while allocating stablecoins into the managed strategies.

August went full send onchain.

Safe recently highlighted the billions of dollars in stablecoins already secured through its self-custody infrastructure.

Asset Management Moves Into the Wallet

The model pushes investment management closer to where crypto treasuries already operate. BitcoinVersus recently covered Ripple and Meritz exploring institutional crypto custody, BNB Chain passing $1 billion in tokenized stocks and ETFs, and Standard Chartered adding RLUSD custody.

CoinShares says Safe smart accounts collectively hold more than $60 billion in self-custodied digital assets, including about $7.5 billion in stablecoins. That gives the asset manager a ready distribution channel without building its own wallet or custody business.

The Defiant explains how Safe smart accounts use multisig and self-custody, the account model underlying CoinShares’ new distribution route.
