Hex Trust, a digital assets financial service provider, has integrated with Monad, a Layer-1 blockchain.
The collaboration is said to allow Hex Trust the ability to provide its institutional clientele with access to a compliant staking infrastructure for the blockchain’s native token, MON.
Moreover, Monad’s parallel execution architecture and MonadBFT consensus are designed to address core scalability issues, stemming from its improved throughput and latency, according to the firms.
Commenting on the joint venture, Giorgia Pellizzari, chief product officer and head of custody at Hex Trust, says: “This integration is an effort to architect the necessary standards for institutional participation in next-generation DeFi.”
Co-founder at Monad Foundation, Keone Hon, adds: “Hex Trust offers a custody solution to institutional audiences in APAC interested in participating in the Monad ecosystem.”
The collaboration aims to provide regulated institutions with access to Layer-1 ecosystems and provide a means to “accelerate the flow of institutional capital into high-growth Web3 infrastructure”.
