Anchorage Digital, a San-Francisco-based digital platform that owns the first federally chartered crypto bank, will open an option for institutions to stake Ethereum (ETH). This move comes in anticipation of the Ethereum network’s long-promised shift from proof-of-work (PoW) to the proof-of-stake (PoS) protocol.

sidrište objavio on Tuesday its intention to introduce ETH staking — a practice of earning rewards for serving as a transaction validator in the Ethereum blockchain — for institutions. Diogo Mónica, co-founder and president of Anchorage Digital, called staking a win-win for institutional investors and the ecosystem:

“Utirajući put institucijama da ulože svoj Ethereum, pružamo povećanu legitimnost tržišno testiranoj imovini – i u tom procesu eliminiramo sve rizike od vrućeg novčanika za institucije koje žele ostvariti novu zaradu od kriptovaluta.”

The announcement emphasizes Anchorage’s high expectations for the upcoming upgrade of the Ethereum network, which will connect its mainnet with the PoS system, coordinated by the Beacon Chain. This feature should allow investors to collect rewards on their ETH in custody by staking with an Anchorage validator. After the Merge, validators would earn not only the block rewards but also the transaction priority fees, which were previously going to miners.

The Beacon Chain was pokrenut as a part of Ethereum’s transitory roadmap in December 2020. In June 2022, Ethereum opened the Sepolia testnet, which would begin reaching consensus using PoS rather than PoW. The official merge date on the Ethereum mainnet has been pushed back several times. It is now slated for completion by August 2022, but that date could be delayed further due to a odvojeno kašnjenje u bombi težine.

Last month, Anchorage formed an exchange custody network with five digital asset trading platforms — Binance.US, CoinList, Blockchain.com, Strix Leviathan and Wintermute — to segregate institutional client funds from exchanges into regulated asset vaults.
