Executive Summary
Utila partners with Everstake to deliver institutional staking infrastructure directly within Utila’s enterprise platform. The integration combines Everstake’s validator expertise across proof-of-stake networks with Utila’s MPC custody, policy controls, and operational infrastructure. Institutions can now stake assets like Solana through the same secure console they use for treasury operations – eliminating operational complexity while maintaining institutional security standards and enabling digital assets to generate native yield without workflow disruption.
Unlocking Institutional Access to Staking
Staking is a foundational element of many blockchain networks, ensuring security, decentralization, and sustainable network incentives. Yet, for many institutional players, the path to participation has been hindered by operational complexity, security concerns, and fragmented tooling.
Utila addresses this by integrating staking into the same console already used by institutions and enterprises to manage and scale their digital asset operations. With MPC wallets, policy controls, and APIs, Utila makes it seamless for institutions to embed staking within their current workflows. Utila’s infrastructure is trusted by over 200 firms processing more than $15+ billion in monthly transactions.
Through this partnership, Everstake’s validator services are directly integrated with Utila’s platform. This integration enables Utila’s clients, ranging from asset managers to fintechs and stablecoin issuers, to stake Solana (followed by other supported networks) without leaving their existing operational environment.
Why This Partnership Matters
The partnership between Everstake and Utila addresses a fundamental gap in the institutional adoption of proof-of-stake networks, like Solana and Ethereum. While staking offers incentives and strengthens blockchain ecosystems, institutional players have traditionally faced certain challenges, such as operational complexity, security concerns, and integration with treasury systems.
By combining Everstake’s track record in validator operations with Utila’s enterprise-ready infrastructure, these challenges are effectively solved. Institutions can now enjoy exposure to staking through the same secure platform they use for custody, treasury, and tokenization.
A Strong Foundation for Institutional Blockchain Participation
The collaboration indicates a broader trend toward institutional-grade staking infrastructure. By joining forces, Everstake and Utila are making staking accessible to players who manage billions of dollars in digital assets, helping bridge the gap between decentralized networks and traditional finance.
Bohdan Opryshko, Co-Founder and COO of Everstake, said:
Staking is becoming a core digital-asset operation for forward-thinking institutions. Together with Utila, we’re aligning decentralized yield generation with the same operational discipline and compliance standards that institutions already apply to custody and settlement – turning staking into a natural extension of existing infrastructure.
Bentzi Rabi, Co-Founder and CEO of Utila, added:
Institutions are asking how to make their balance sheet productive without adding complexity. By integrating Everstake into Link, we’ve turned native yield into part of the existing treasury workflow – same console, same controls, no engineer overhead. One governed process now unlocks staking across multiple networks, making yield generation for institutions as streamlined and scalable as settlements or payouts.
Building the Infrastructure of Modern Finance
Proof-of-Stake blockchains like Solana and Ethereum are fast becoming foundational to modern digital asset infrastructure. By integrating institutional staking directly into the platform enterprises already use and trust, Utila and Everstake transform a technical challenge into a seamless operational advantage.
Integrated solutions like this are key to unlocking the next wave of institutional participation in the staking economy. Utila is proud to partner with leaders like Everstake to make institutional staking simple, secure, and fully integrated.
