This aims to drive institutional staking on P2P.org, providing institutions with a secure and efficient solution to participate in the blockchain economy.
P2P.org, one of the leading non-custodial staking platforms, announced the launch of a staking service for institutional investors. Partnering with Colossus Digital, a staking infrastructure provider, P2P.org will introduce a novel service that allows institutional clients to stake digital assets directly from secure custody solutions.
The service is tailored to serve the needs of institutions in the digital asset space, aiming to push more investors towards staking their tokens securely. This follows the recent surge in institutional investment in the crypto space and the growing demand for institutional-grade blockchain solutions.
On the novel innovation introduced on P2P.org, Artemiy Parshakov, VP of Institutions at P2P.org, explained that institutions will enjoy increased benefits in the blockchain ecosystem without sacrificing the security of their assets.
“Institutional staking requires both security and efficiency, and our collaboration with Colossus Digital helps meet those needs,” Parshakov added. “By integrating our validator infrastructure with Colossus’ platform, we’re making it easier for institutions to participate in staking while maintaining the highest quality standards.”
P2P.org’s institutional service will provide seamless access to staking while maintaining the highest quality of service as a SOC 2-certified company. The company will integrate Colossus Digital’s Institutoional Hub, a custodial staking dashboard specifically designed for institutions, to provide the staking service.
As more institutional investors, such as hedge funds, asset managers, etc,. pour money into the crypto market, staking will see growing demand. Institutional investors will seek staking as a means to reap yield on their crypto, maximizing their returns on digital assets. Additionally, staking provides a steady stream of income on their investments compared to traditional investment vehicles, especially in the low-interest-rate environment.
One challenge in the staking world, however, has been the need to move assets to a third-party platform to stake them. The collaboration between P2P.org and Colossus Digital solves this challenge by providing custodians, asset managers, and institutional investors with a universal staking solution. The integration enables new opportunities, allowing institutions from a technical perspective to securely stake assets without requiring asset transfers.
Terming the collaboration an “important milestone in making blockchain technology more accessible and secure for institutional clients”, Lorenzo Barbantini Scanni, CRO and Founder of Colossus Digital, believes this is the start to seeing more institutions staking in the coming years.
“By integrating P2P.org’s trusted validator infrastructure with our Institutional Hub, we’re offering a solution that simplifies institutional staking while ensuring the highest quality of service,” Barbantini added.
Starting today, the service will allow institutional investors to stake across a wide range of Layer 1 and Layer 2 blockchain networks, including Ethereum (including DVT), Babylon BTC, Celestia, TON, Sui, Polkadot, Berachain and others. More than 20 Proof-of-Stake assets are supported, with custody available from institutional providers such as Dfns, Fireblocks, and Ledger Enterprise.
As financial institutions continue to flock to the digital asset space, staking will be a key feature in their investment strategies. By offering secure and efficient staking, regulatory clarity and higher yields, P2P.org’s collaboration with Colossus Digital addresses this need and sets a new standard for institutional staking.
