As we close the chapter on 2025, we felt it was the right moment to pause, reflect, and extend our gratitude to the institutions, partners, and clients who placed their trust in GlobalStake and reflect on GlobalStake Year in Review 2025. What began as a year of strong momentum evolved into one of our most transformational periods of growth to date. From expanding our global presence and strengthening our security posture to deepening partnerships with leading custodians and institutional service providers, 2025 was defined by execution, reliability, and meaningful progress toward our long-term vision.
GlobalStake exists to enable institutions to participate in digital asset ecosystems with confidence, operational efficiency, and uncompromising security. This year, we demonstrated that mission with clarity—by scaling our infrastructure, strengthening governance, and building partnerships that meaningfully advance institutional participation in staking and digital asset infrastructure. At the same time, we are laying the foundation for 2026 and beyond, where we anticipate even deeper institutional engagement, more sophisticated yield solutions, and increased global demand for resilient, transparent, and compliant infrastructure partners.
2025 was not just another successful year. It was a defining one. If we make a GlobalStake Year in Review 2025, we must focus on key aspects:
Strengthening Institutional Trust Through Strategic Custody and Infrastructure Partnerships
Institutional adoption of digital assets continues to evolve, and with it comes heightened expectations around security, governance, operational rigor, and counterpart credibility. Throughout 2025, GlobalStake focused on building collaborative momentum with some of the most trusted names in institutional custody, ensuring that our clients can access staking and digital asset infrastructure through partners they already rely on.
This year, we were proudly onboarded by leading custodians and custody-enablement platforms, including:
These integrations are far more than mere checkboxes; they also represent alignment with the industry’s most stringent institutional standards. For our clients, they translate into greater optionality, secure operational workflows, and the ability to activate staking strategies using existing custody relationships without additional friction. For the ecosystem as a whole, this marks another step toward institutional maturity, where trusted, compliant, and operationally resilient service providers can collaborate to unlock scalable growth.
We also deepened strategic collaboration with key institutional partners, including MG Stover, reinforcing our position as a credible and sophisticated partner within institutional digital asset infrastructure. These relationships reflect a growing recognition: institutions are no longer exploring staking as an emerging concept; they are implementing it as a core strategic pillar, and they require partners who meet the standards they are accustomed to in traditional finance.
Elevating Security: Reinforcing the Foundation Institutions Depend On
Security remains the cornerstone of GlobalStake’s value proposition. Institutions cannot afford uncertainty, and the evolution of the industry continues to demand provable controls, verified governance frameworks, and transparent third-party validation.
In addition to maintaining our SOC 2 Type II compliance framework -demonstrating ongoing dedication to operational security, system integrity, and risk management- 2025 marked another critical milestone: GlobalStake achieved CCSS (CryptoCurrency Security Standard) Certification.
The CCSS certification represents a significant achievement, specifically focused on key management and digital asset security practices, validating that our systems, processes, and controls align with one of the most rigorous industry standards for cryptocurrency systems. For our institutional partners, this certification reinforces confidence in the safety, resilience, and governance standards embedded throughout the GlobalStake platform.
In a landscape where regulatory scrutiny continues to increase, and institutions demand greater accountability from infrastructure partners, these achievements are not simple milestones; they are commitments. They signal our dedication to providing an environment where institutions can operate with clarity, assurance, and trust. Security isn’t an added feature at GlobalStake. It is an uncompromising foundation.
Expanding Our Global Footprint: Powering the Next Era of Institutional Participation
This year, we also continued to invest in one of the areas we believe most firmly differentiates GlobalStake: our global infrastructure footprint.
As staking and digital asset participation expand globally, latency, jurisdictional flexibility, resilience, and physical infrastructure diversity increasingly matter. To support institutional clients across regions, we focused on strategic infrastructure expansion, as well as ensuring GlobalStake remains geographically distributed, operationally redundant, and prepared to support growing demand.
A cornerstone of this expansion is the opening of our newest data center in Tokyo, extending our physical presence into the APAC region. Asia continues to play a critical role in the global digital asset ecosystem, and with increasing institutional engagement across major financial centers in APAC, this investment strengthens our ability to serve clients in the region with performance, reliability, and proximity.
This development reflects a broader strategy: building a truly global platform capable of delivering local relevance, technical resilience, and institutional-grade performance, wherever our partners operate. As we enter 2026, our expansion strategy will continue, with additional infrastructure deployments planned across priority global markets.
GlobalStake Year in Review 2025: A Year Defined by Execution, Alignment, and Confidence
Looking back, 2025 was a year in which GlobalStake translated strategic ambition into measurable action. It was a year defined by strengthening institutional alignment, reinforcing trust, expanding infrastructure capacity, and investing in the certifications and partnerships that underpin global scale.
But above all, it was a year shaped by collaboration. None of these achievements would have been possible without our clients, partners, investors, and supporters across the digital asset ecosystem. Together, we navigated a year of continued innovation, evolving regulation, expanding institutional interest, and increasing operational expectations. And together, we built the next layer of institutional infrastructure.
For that, we want to express our sincere thanks.
Looking Ahead to 2026: A Year of Expansion, Innovation, and Institutional Opportunity
If 2025 was about strengthening the foundation, 2026 will be about building upward. The coming year already promises to be one of the most exciting and transformational periods in GlobalStake’s journey. Major initiatives underway will expand our capabilities, unlock new opportunities for institutional clients, and further reinforce our leadership in digital asset infrastructure.
One of the most anticipated developments on the horizon is the rollout of our institutional Bitcoin Yield offering. While we will be sharing more details soon, this initiative represents another step toward solving one of the industry’s most meaningful challenges: enabling institutions to access secure, risk-managed, and operationally efficient yield solutions backed by infrastructure they trust. As the market evolves, institutions are demanding sophisticated Bitcoin yield opportunities that combine transparency, compliance, and technology excellence. GlobalStake is prepared to meet that demand.
At the same time, we will continue to scale our global data center footprint, extending coverage into additional strategic locations worldwide. Infrastructure resilience, jurisdictional diversification, and physical presence remain core to our strategy, and 2026 will see GlobalStake deepen that commitment with continued expansion and optimization.
We will also continue to enhance partnerships, strengthen governance frameworks, and advance platform capabilities. This ensures that institutions have the tools, confidence, and infrastructure needed to participate in digital asset ecosystems at scale.
Entering 2026 with Confidence and Commitment
As we step into the first moments of 2026, we do so with gratitude, optimism, and unwavering focus. The digital asset landscape continues to evolve rapidly, and institutions require partners who are prepared not only to navigate change but to lead confidently through it. GlobalStake remains fully committed to building secure, scalable, and future-ready infrastructure designed specifically for institutional needs.
On behalf of the entire GlobalStake team, thank you for your trust, collaboration, and partnership throughout 2025. We look forward to continuing to work alongside you in 2026 and beyond, supporting your strategies, powering your participation, and building the next era of institutional digital asset infrastructure together.
The journey ahead is exciting. And we’re just getting started.
