What Digital Opportunities Group does

Digital Opportunities Group (DigOpp) is a private, founder-owned professional services firm founded in 2021 by Phill Moran and headquartered in Atlanta as a Delaware corporation. The firm specializes in operational risk auditing for digital asset infrastructure, deliberately occupying the seam between smart contract code audits and traditional SOC 2/ISO 27001 frameworks — a gap that DigOpp's own loss-categorization data places at $4.6B in operational and custody losses versus $1.17B in smart-contract losses over a two-year window ending May 2026. The practice applies the Cryptocurrency Security Standard (CCSS, currently v9.0 published December 2024 by the CryptoCurrency Certification Consortium) and references NIST SP 800-90A, NYDFS Part 200, MiCA, and the SBAI digital asset ODD framework.

The service portfolio comprises seven interconnected offerings: CCSS Audit & Readiness (Levels 1–3 plus readiness work), Operational Due Diligence (the "last mile" mapping of existing assurance coverage), Vendor Research & Benchmarking (buyer-paid independent competitive research), and four specialized operational assessments covering Stablecoin Operations, RWA Tokenization, On-Chain Credit, and Bridge Audit. A companion platform, Counterparty Catalogue (counterpartycatalogue.com), provides a structured directory of digital asset service providers for institutional buyers. Delivery is handled by two named senior practitioners — Founder Phill Moran (CFA, CCSSA, previously managing a $3B institutional portfolio) and Principal Fozia Paracha (previously operations at a credit hedge fund and institutional allocator) — supplemented by specialist contractors and partner auditors on scoped engagements.

DigOpp generates revenue through professional services engagements scoped per project via consultation calls, with contract durations typically spanning 4–12 weeks and a "multi-year contract" billing cadence noted in source materials. The go-to-market is direct and content-driven: long-form Substack writing (migrating to the company website), a website consultation form, direct email ([email protected]), Calendly booking, and a partner showcase — with no account executives between clients and the auditors who sign reports. Customer segments span custody providers, prime brokers, stablecoin and tokenization platforms, DeFi vaults and protocols, hedge funds, banks and credit unions, risk officers, and vendor selection teams, all in the digital asset and crypto-native finance ecosystem.

Core offering

Digital Opportunities Group audits and researches the operational layer of digital asset infrastructure, delivering CCSS cryptocurrency security audits, operational due diligence on digital asset operations, vendor/competitor benchmarking, and specialized operational assessments for stablecoin issuers, RWA tokenization platforms, on-chain credit providers, and cross-chain bridges. Its flagship Counterparty Catalogue is a structured directory of digital asset service providers (custody, prime brokerage, stablecoin issuance, tokenization, staking, audit firms, legal counsel) sold to institutional buyers for vendor selection.

Product overview

Digital Opportunities Group (DigOpp) offers a suite of specialized audit, due diligence, and research services for digital asset infrastructure. The core offering consists of seven interconnected consulting services: CCSS Audit & Readiness provides formal Cryptocurrency Security Standard certification; Operational Due Diligence maps existing audit coverage and identifies gaps; Vendor Research produces independent competitive benchmarking; and four specialized operational assessments cover Stablecoin Operations, RWA Tokenization, On-Chain Credit, and Bridge Audit. A companion platform called Counterparty Catalogue provides a structured directory of digital asset providers. Together, these services address the operational risk surface that exists between smart contract audits and generic SOC 2/ISO 27001 frameworks.

Functional benefit

Products and services

• CCSS Audit & Readiness Independent Cryptocurrency Security Standard (CCSS) audits at Levels 1, 2, and 3, plus readiness assessments that help digital asset custody organizations prepare for their first formal audit by building the required documentation and evidence infrastructure. Intended for custody providers, wallet operators, and digital asset service providers pursuing institutional-grade assurance.
• Operational Due Diligence (ODD) The last-mile diligence engagement on digital asset operations, mapping existing assurance coverage, identifying gaps between documented controls and operational reality, and producing tailored reports for limited partners, boards, and regulators. Sold to hedge funds, DeFi vaults, and institutional allocators.
• Vendor Research & Benchmarking Buyer-paid independent research and competitive benchmarking of digital asset infrastructure providers covering custody, prime brokerage, stablecoin issuers, and tokenization platforms, structured for institutional vendor selection with no conflicts of interest from vendor relationships.
• Stablecoin Operations Operational assessment of stablecoin issuance covering mint-and-burn workflows, issuer key custody, redemption mechanics, and the operational controls that stablecoin attestations do not cover. Targeted at stablecoin issuers, integrators, and regulated platforms.
• RWA Tokenization Audit End-to-end operational assessment of real-world asset tokenization workflows, covering the seam between off-chain custody of the underlying asset, on-chain issuance, and ongoing reconciliation between the two. Sells to tokenization platforms, banks issuing tokenized assets, and institutional issuers.
• On-Chain Credit Operational assessment of crypto-collateralized lending covering custody integrity, liquidation runbooks, oracle governance, rehypothecation risk, and reconciliation between documented loan terms and on-chain reality. Aimed at on-chain credit desks, lending protocols, and credit officers evaluating them.
• Bridge Audit Operational and custodial review of cross-chain bridging covering validator-set governance, upgrade authority, custody model, pause procedures, and the gap between documented runbooks and operational execution. Sells to bridge operators and the institutions seeking to assess them.
• Counterparty Catalogue A separately hosted structured directory of digital asset service providers covering custody, prime brokerage, stablecoin issuance, tokenization, staking infrastructure, audit firms, and legal counsel, built for institutional buyers to map, categorize, and continuously update the digital asset provider landscape.

Direct peers

• OpenZeppelin: Smart contract and protocol security auditor serving many of the same digital asset infrastructure clients. Closest like-for-like crypto audit firm, though OpenZeppelin focuses on code layer while DigOpp focuses on the operational layer above it.
• Trail of Bits: Blockchain security and smart contract audit firm with institutional digital asset clients. Competes for the same security/assurance wallet and serves many of the same protocols, custody providers, and infrastructure vendors.
• Certik: Web3 security auditor providing smart contract audits, formal verification, and security rankings for protocols and infrastructure. Overlapping client base with DigOpp across DeFi protocols, bridges, and tokenization platforms.
• Zellic: Applied cryptography and smart contract security firm auditing blockchain protocols and infrastructure. Competes for similar engagements on bridges, custody codebases, and on-chain credit protocols.
• Quantstamp: Smart contract and blockchain security auditor with a global delivery footprint. Comparable in target market (protocols, custodians, tokenization projects) and audit deliverable format (engagement-based professional services).

Broad incumbents

• Chainalysis: Blockchain analytics, AML/KYC, and forensics platform with a much larger team and broader compliance offering. Adjacent rather than direct: Chainalysis covers the compliance/forensics layer where DigOpp touches it through CCSS and stablecoin operational audits.
• TRM Labs: Blockchain intelligence and crypto compliance platform serving banks, custodians and exchanges. Competes for institutional risk/compliance budget that DigOpp also targets through ODD and stablecoin operations assessments.
• KPMG Digital Asset Services: Big 4 firm with active digital asset assurance and risk practice. Strongest large-firm competitor for tokenization, custody, and stablecoin assurance engagements with institutional buyers.

Others

• ACA Compliance Group: Independent compliance and ODD advisor for hedge funds and other alternatives. Applies the same institutional counterparty-risk discipline DigOpp applies to digital assets, and overlaps with DigOpp at hedge fund and bank clients evaluating crypto counterparties.
• Albourne: Independent alternative-investment ODD firm whose LP-facing diligence methodology DigOpp mirrors for digital asset funds. Provides a TradFi reference point for DigOpp's ODD service line and could be the firm's main cross-sell partner for TradFi allocators.
