Kiln and Fireblocks team up to offer enterprise-grade staking on PoS blockchains
We are thrilled to announce that Kiln has joined the Fireblocks partner network to provide enterprise-grade staking natively integrated in Fireblock’s products, on all major PoS blockchains starting first with ETH and SOL.
Thanks to this partnership, Fireblocks’ 1,300+ clients can now participate in the security of these PoS blockchains, earning staking rewards while doing so. As of today, this is supported on Solana and Ethereum, with additional protocols to follow.
Additional protocols, including smaller emerging ones, are planned to be added in the future to expand the offering.
Fireblocks is a trusted enterprise crypto management platform that exclusively collaborates with top-tier partners like Kiln to offer the best staking services integrated in its platform.
The staking opportunity
Staking cryptocurrencies involves locking native tokens within a Proof-of-Stake blockchain to earn the right to participate in its security for a given period.
Fireblocks' top priority is to create easy-to-use, enterprise-grade solutions with the highest level of security. In partnership with Kiln, Fireblocks is now offering a native staking solution that allows users to earn rewards while contributing to the decentralization of the network.
It is the most natural reward feature in crypto as the value derives from the blockchain native currency inflation and a share of transaction fees. For those reasons, more and more institutions are choosing to stake their assets and put their treasuries to work.
‘Joining the Fireblocks partner network is a major milestone for Kiln, and we are thrilled to offer enterprise-grade staking natively integrated in Fireblocks' products. This partnership allows us to provide secure and accessible staking solutions to a wider audience. We are excited to start with Solana and expand to other major PoS blockchains, including Ethereum.’ — Laszlo Szabo, co-founder and CEO at Kiln
