In addition, wallet type availability differs by asset. You can see which wallet types are available for each asset on the Coins and Tokens table.

In addition to REST APIs, you can integrate with BitGo using:

Option	Best for
BitGo JavaScript SDK	JavaScript and TypeScript projects. Handles signing, key management, and transaction building directly.
