Galaxy Digital said on Aug. 4 that it has entered a strategic partnership with Bank of New York Mellon, or BNY, to build out digital asset infrastructure for institutional clients. The arrangement is set to support digital asset services including staking, which the company described as a mechanism that lets eligible digital assets earn reward income.
Under the partnership, BNY’s digital asset custody platform will be combined with Galaxy’s expertise across proof-of-stake, or PoS, networks. The two firms said the goal is to bring custody and staking into a single institutional service model, giving clients an integrated way to take part in staking through a process designed to be secure and simplified.
Galaxy will also serve as a design partner to help refine the infrastructure behind BNY’s digital asset platform. The planned staking service from BNY, along with related infrastructure upgrades, remains subject to regulatory review.
