Komainu has entered a partnership with staking infrastructure provider P2P.org to expand its institutional staking services for digital assets. The integration connects Komainu’s custody platform with P2P.org’s validator infrastructure, allowing institutional clients to participate in Proof of Stake networks while maintaining custody of their assets.
The collaboration introduces an additional validator option within Komainu’s staking service and extends the number of supported assets available for staking through the platform.
The partnership reflects continued institutional interest in staking services linked to digital asset custody infrastructure.
Staking Through Custody Infrastructure
Komainu launched its institutional staking service in 2022 as part of its digital asset custody offering.
The service allows institutional investors to participate in Proof of Stake networks by locking digital assets to support blockchain validation processes.
Participants receive network rewards in exchange for staking their assets.
Through the new integration, Komainu clients can delegate staking operations to validator infrastructure operated by P2P.org.
The assets remain stored within segregated custody wallets while being used to support blockchain validation.
This structure allows institutions to participate in staking without transferring custody of their assets.
Validator Infrastructure Integration
P2P.org operates validator infrastructure used to support blockchain networks that rely on Proof of Stake consensus mechanisms.
The company maintains validator nodes across more than forty blockchain networks.
Through the partnership, this infrastructure becomes available to Komainu clients through the custody platform’s interface.
The integration allows institutions to access staking services while maintaining control over their digital asset custody arrangements.
Validator performance metrics including uptime and slashing history are part of the infrastructure evaluation used by institutional participants.
P2P.org stated that its validator network maintains a record without slashing incidents.
Custody and Staking Participation
Institutional investors often require custody solutions that allow assets to remain under regulated storage conditions.
Staking services integrated with custody platforms allow assets to remain in segregated wallets while participating in blockchain networks.
This model is designed to maintain custody integrity while enabling participation in on chain validation processes.
The integration between Komainu and P2P.org operates through a non custodial staking structure.
Under this model, Komainu clients retain ownership and control of their assets while delegating validation activity to external infrastructure.
The system also provides on chain transparency regarding staking activity and reward distribution.
Expansion of Supported Assets
The partnership introduces additional digital assets available for staking through Komainu’s platform.
Among the supported assets is HYPE, which becomes available to institutional clients through the validator infrastructure.
Proof of Stake networks require validators and delegators to secure blockchain operations.
Institutional participation in staking has expanded as custody providers integrate validator infrastructure with their platforms.
This approach allows asset managers and financial institutions to generate network rewards while maintaining operational controls required by institutional custody frameworks.

Participants receive network rewards for performing these functions.
Institutional investors typically require custody systems that maintain regulatory compliance and operational safeguards.
Staking services integrated with custody platforms allow these investors to participate in blockchain networks while maintaining custody controls.
The integration between Komainu and P2P.org illustrates how custody providers and validator infrastructure operators collaborate to provide staking services for institutional digital asset investors.
