It makes sense to play beautifully: The deal carries staking services and validator of the Galaxy, holding more than $ 4 billion in staked crypto assets, in institutional BitGo preserving, giving -up to those Investors earn staking rewards while also using assets as collateral for loans and trading on the Galaxy platform.
Galawal A deal abandoned To get a bitgo in early 2023, seeing the firm firing firing a $ 100 million lawsuit allegedly Galaxy intentionally violated the May 2021 agreement. In connection with that lawsuit and the new staking partnership, the Companies have issued a joint statement:

Thinking that staking will be enabled by the ETF products, the managers of these funds need to think carefully about the balance of the danger of liquidity, Glauber said.
