Ripple announces the addition of Ethereum and Solana staking support to its institutional-grade custody platform, and through technical integrations with Securosys and Figment, provides banks and financial institutions with a more secure, compliant, one-stop digital asset management solution. This upgrade is seen as an important step for Ripple to transition from cross-border payments to a comprehensive blockchain infrastructure provider.
According to official disclosures, the new platform has integrated Securosys’s Hardware Security Module (HSM), enabling secure management of private keys in both cloud and on-premises environments, meeting high standards for asset security and audit compliance required by regulators. Additionally, with Figment’s node and staking technology, custodial clients can participate in PoS network staking without building their own validators, allowing them to earn on-chain rewards on major public chains like Ethereum and Solana.
This expansion builds on Ripple’s recent acquisition of Palisade and integration of Chainalysis risk management tools. Compliance checks are now embedded directly into the transaction process, further simplifying the technical complexity for institutions deploying custody and staking services. Ripple states that its goal is to help banks and custodians launch digital asset services more quickly while lowering operational barriers.
Headquartered in San Francisco, USA, Ripple also issues the XRP token and the RLUSD stablecoin. In recent years, the company has continuously expanded beyond payments into custody, treasury management, and digital asset infrastructure.
As PoS networks mature, institutional interest in staking continues to grow. Figment has recently expanded partnerships with multiple custodial service providers to support more mainstream public chain assets. Meanwhile, the market is also exploring Bitcoin yield products, promoting diversification of on-chain financial scenarios.
In this trend, Ripple’s custody upgrade not only enhances its institutional service capabilities but also reflects the accelerated evolution of crypto finance toward “security, compliance, and scalability.”
