BNY to add crypto staking to its digital asset custody platform through Galaxy partnership

Bank of New York Mellon said Tuesday that it plans to expand its institutional digital asset offering by adding crypto staking to its custody platform through a partnership with Galaxy. Subject to regulatory approval, institutional clients would be able to stake digital assets held in custody directly on BNY’s platform, rather than moving tokens to an external provider. Galaxy will supply the staking infrastructure and also serve as a design partner for BNY’s blockchain products. The move is aimed at streamlining staking for large institutions, which have traditionally needed to route assets through third-party providers to earn staking yields, adding operational complexity and extra security considerations. BNY said the staking initiative is part of a broader push into blockchain-based financial services. Since launching crypto custody in 2022, the bank has continued to build out its digital asset business. It also recently said it will move its transfer agency accounting operations onto blockchain through an Onchain Ownership Ledger, with the goal of reducing reliance on layered intermediaries and improving efficiency and data consistency. The bank’s roadmap also includes 24/7 U.S. Treasury settlement by 2027 for both traditional and tokenized Treasuries, as well as private-chain testing of tokenized Treasuries before the end of this year.

BNY and Galaxy Digital team up on institutional crypto staking service

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.

BNY to add crypto staking to institutional custody platform with Galaxy

Bank of New York Mellon said it plans to add staking to its digital asset custody platform through a partnership with crypto financial services firm Galaxy, according to a report cited by CoinDesk. The setup is designed to let institutional clients earn staking rewards without moving assets out of custody, a point the report framed as especially important for firms managing compliance and safekeeping requirements. The service is still subject to regulatory approval. Under the arrangement, Galaxy will provide the staking infrastructure and also serve as a design partner as BNY expands its blockchain-related services. The move adds to BNY’s digital asset push since launching crypto custody in 2022, a business line that already includes bitcoin, ether and tokenized securities. The report also said that in June 2026, BNY partnered with Circle so clients could custody, transfer, mint and burn USDC on the bank’s platform.
