Sentiment and the balance of points
Rhea-AI Sentiment reads the wording of the document, how positive or negative its language is on a 1 to 5 scale. The balance of points shown with the takes weighs what the document actually discloses, so the two can disagree, for example when a trial that missed its main goal is described in upbeat language.
Eligible institutional clients will be able to stake through BNY’s existing Digital Asset Custody service, utilizing Figment validator infrastructure
The collaboration combines BNY’s custody and servicing model with Figment’s validator infrastructure, providing eligible institutions with a secure, integrated way to participate in staking, the process that allows eligible digital assets to earn rewards. By working with Figment, the largest non-custodial staking provider across both Ethereum and Solana, BNY is adding validator infrastructure to support its staking offering.
BNY’s offering will bring Digital Asset Custody and staking together within a single institutional servicing model. With Figment’s validator infrastructure, asset managers, ETF issuers, corporates, wealth management firms and other eligible institutional clients will be able to access staking for supported digital assets held on BNY’s Digital Asset Custody platform.
“As institutional participation in staking grows, the focus is shifting from simply accessing staking to how it is delivered. Offering staking with Figment in a trusted custody framework can give institutions greater confidence in how they participate, while supporting the standards of security, oversight and accountability they expect from a global custodian,” said Ralf Roth, Head of Digital Asset Custody, BNY.
“BNY’s continued expansion of its staking offering represents an important step in diversifying institutional participation in staking. By working with BNY, Figment is bringing its validator infrastructure and staking expertise to BNY’s Digital Asset Custody platform, giving institutional clients another way to participate in staking using their existing platform and servicing workflows. BNY continues to lead as a true pioneer, and Figment is honored to help support their vision,” said Josh Deems, Head of Revenue, Figment.
