[PRESS RELEASE \u2013 Miami, FL, June 19th, 2025]<\/strong><\/p>\n

Everstake<\/a>, a leading global non-custodial staking provider serving institutional and retail clients, has partnered with Zodia Custody<\/a>, a leading institutional digital asset custodian backed by Standard Chartered, SBI Holdings, Northern Trust, and National Australia Bank. Through this collaboration, Everstake will support institutional staking for Zodia Custody clients by providing validator infrastructure across multiple Proof-of-Stake (PoS) networks.<\/p>\n

To align with institutional expectations, Zodia is introducing staking with Everstake. The first tranche brought support for Polkadot (DOT), Cardano (ADA), and Solana (SOL), with Everstake serving as a trusted validator partner across these networks. In the second tranche, the infrastructure will also extend to Ethereum (ETH), NEAR Protocol (NEAR), and Babylon (BABY), with support scheduled to go live in the coming months\u2014further expanding staking capabilities for Zodia clients.<\/p>\n

Staking is playing an increasingly prominent role in institutional digital asset strategies, but slashing risk, compliance, and infrastructure reliability remain key barriers. This partnership addresses those challenges by combining Zodia\u2019s secure, institutional-backed custody platform with Everstake\u2019s institutional-grade validator infrastructure, offering 99.9% uptime and full compliance with ISO\/IEC 27001:2022, SOC 2 Type 2, and GDPR. Together, they provide a natural solution for institutions seeking secure, compliant staking at scale.<\/p>\n

By integrating directly into Zodia\u2019s custody platform, Everstake enables staking without requiring clients to compromise custody. Assets are staked through Zodia\u2019s internal API infrastructure and routed to Everstake\u2019s whitelisted nodes. Everstake never accesses customer keys or assets; all operations remain auditable, transparent, and aligned with institutional governance.<\/p>\n

\u201cInstitutions are looking for ways to put their digital assets to work without compromising on security or compliance,\u201d said Julian Sawyer, CEO of Zodia Custody. \u201cBy partnering with Everstake, we\u2019re enabling clients to stake assets like SOL and NEAR directly from custody while maintaining full oversight, control, and governance over the process.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe believe staking will underpin the next wave of institutional adoption in digital assets,\u201d said Bohdan Opryshko, co-founder and COO of Everstake. \u201cOur partnership with Zodia reflects the growing demand for compliant staking infrastructure built to institutional standards. We\u2019re proud to support this new tranche of their program and help deliver institutional-grade staking to their clients.\u201d<\/p>\n
