Digital prime brokerage GCEX will now provide its institutional and professional investors with access to digital asset custodian Komainu’s staking services.
GCEX began its partnership with Komainu in February 2023, in order to offer a wider range of regulated custodians to its clients.
The expansion of the partnership will allow clients to earn rewards on their digital assets while remaining under secure and segregated custody, GCEX says.
Lars Holst, GCEX CEO, says: “[Extending] our partnership with Komainu gives our clients access to secure and compliant staking services, enabling them to participate in staking rewards for digital assets. We are committed to providing our clients with the best possible service and this partnership is a testament to that.”
Darren Jordan, head of sales at Komainu, comments: “Adding staking was a natural next step in our suite of offerings for GCEX clients. Offering custody alone doesn’t cut it anymore, the market demands more innovative solutions, clients require utility of their assets. That is why Komainu built a suite of services including regulated custody, staking and collateral management.”
