Mike Belshe
Person·2 cited sources·updated 2026-04-27
CEO and Co-Founder of BitGo; named in this wiki across two sources — the public 51 deck (where he appears in the expert-network slide as "Mike Belshe — CEO, BitGo") and BitGo's public homepage (where a "Letter From Mike Belshe, BitGo CEO and Co-Founder" is featured, presumably IPO-related).
Who they are
Mike Belshe is the CEO and Co-Founder of BitGo, the wiki's first Custody-sector vendor. The 51 deck names him in its expert-network slide (slide 13), and BitGo's homepage features a public letter from him in his CEO/Co-Founder capacity (the homepage thumbnail suggests it concerns BitGo's IPO posture). For the wiki's purposes, his role is anchored to BitGo specifically — leading the custody-vendor side of the institutional-digital-asset ecosystem.

Open questions
- The Mike Belshe IPO letter content. Featured on BitGo's homepage but not separately ingested. SEC EDGAR S-1 filings would be a natural next-source ingest for substantive content about BitGo's regulatory posture and IPO trajectory.
