What Happened

• Jody Mettler, Chief Operating Officer of BitGo Holdings, sold 97 shares on 2026-08-07 in an open-market/block trade for a weighted average price of $5.02, generating roughly $486. This sale was a "sell-to-cover" to satisfy tax withholding related to the vesting/settlement of restricted stock units (RSUs), so it is a routine tax-related disposition rather than a discretionary market-timing sale.
