Core Foundation, the body responsible for transforming Core, into a yield-generating asset, will widen its strategic alliance with Hex Trust.
This enhanced collaboration will incorporate Core’s dual staking solution, which will provide organisations with the ability to timelock bitcoin, to protect the Core network, and generate block rewards.
Through this partnership, financial institutions in APAC and MENA will gain entry to bitcoin rewards, the firm says.
Hex Trust, a provider of digital asset markets services, custody and staking, will incorporate Core’s dual staking into its secure custody systems.
This native integration into Hex Trust platform will allow institutional clients to stake both Bitcoin and CORE tokens, allowing a scalable and regulatory-compliant way for organisations to earn rewards while retaining bitcoin’s core attributes within a safe environment.
“This partnership with Hex Trust is a significant step in unlocking Bitcoin's utility for institutional clients,” says Hong Sun, institutional contributor at Core. “Together, we are accelerating the adoption of Bitcoin yield strategies and creating a more robust and sustainable ecosystem for Bitcoin DeFi."
