The Challenge
Fireblocks currently supports a limited number of blockchain networks for native staking. This means institutional stakers may be limited in the choice of networks they can stake using Fireblocks’ native interface.
“We are pleased to assist EVG in their staking needs via our dashboard product. Stakin strives to provide our institutional clients with a secure and seamless non-custodial staking experience. We look forward to supporting EVG in further staking opportunities in their investor journey, and we thank them for their trust in delegating their assets to us.”
– Edouard Lavidalle, CEO, Stakin
The Solution
To assist institutional clients in taking advantage of Fireblocks’ MPC and patent-pending chip isolation technology without being limited by the choice of blockchain networks they can stake on, we have built a custom Fireblocks integration on our institutional staking dashboard.
In doing so, we’ve taken advantage of Fireblocks’ most powerful feature: raw signing. This feature allows a user to sign a transaction on a blockchain that Fireblocks doesn’t currently support.
With Stakin’s Fireblocks integration, EVG can utilize our outstanding staking infrastructure directly from the Fireblocks dashboard in just a few clicks. This means that Everest Venture Group can stake network tokens not currently supported by Fireblocks in a non-custodial way directly from Fireblocks's easy-to-use interface.
"We've been working with Stakin, and we are pleased with their service. Stakin has proven that it genuinely listens to the needs of institutional investors and supports new networks. Their integration with Fireblocks matches our security requirements while providing access to emerging opportunities. "
– Ruby Cheng, Cofounder & Chief Controller, EVG
