Partners
The first batch for the Codefi staking Pilot Program includes : Binance, Crypto.com, DARMA Capital, Huobi Wallet, Matrix Port, and Trustology.
With staking on Binance, users can receive staking rewards without needing to set up nodes, or worrying about minimum staking amounts, time lengths, or any catches. Users deserve the rewards that their coins can earn them. With the eventual launch of Ethereum 2.0, we are excited to support staking for all of our ETH holders on Binance,” said Changpeng Zhao (CZ), CEO at Binance
Ethereum’s upgrade to proof-of-stake will be a pivotal moment for both Ethereum and the Web 3.0 ecosystem. We look forward to teaming with ConsenSys as they support the technological progression and DARMA addresses the financial impact of ETH locked assets and rewards staking through staking-swaps and collateralization,” said James Slazas, CEO of DARMA Capital.
Alex Batlin, CEO of Trustology “We believe that ETH2.0 represents a step change for decentralised finance, both in terms of performance and scalability, that will spearhead the long awaited mass adoption, along with the opportunity to earn interest on ETH via staking. ETH2.0 brings to the forefront the need for bank-grade secure, but lightening fast, custody solutions. Thanks to our custom HSM firmware in HSM, we are able to lead the market in offering a fast and scalable custodial wallet solution both for investors looking to stake on ETH2.0, and for validators involved in staking operations.
