New York City, October 9, 2025 — Figment, the leading independent institutional staking provider, has been selected as a staking partner for Grayscale Investments® in the first U.S. launch of staking in Ethereum (ETH) ETPs and a Solana (SOL) Trust.
Grayscale’s staking launch in ETPs marks a significant milestone for staking adoption in the U.S. Figment is proud to partner with Grayscale, bringing security, compliance, and performance expertise to support the continued growth of staking at an institutional scale.
The Grayscale funds leverage Figment’s institutional-grade infrastructure to integrate Proof-of-Stake rewards directly into its ETPs. This provides investors access to staking within regulated, familiar investment vehicles – while they participate in a critical security mechanism for blockchains.
As a genesis validator on both Solana and Ethereum, and with prior experience supporting staking in ETPs across Canada, Europe, and Latin America, Figment brings proven infrastructure to support Grayscale’s funds.
Staking is now live in the Grayscale Ethereum Trust ETF (ETHE), Grayscale Ethereum Mini Trust ETF (ETH), and Grayscale Solana Trust (GSOL).
“Beyond returns, staking in ETPs enables holders to participate in securing and processing transactions for the blockchain. Figment provides institutions like Grayscale the trust, transparency, and feasibility to bring staking to their customers”, stated Lorien Gabel, CEO and Co-Founder of Figment.
Figment is advancing scalable staking solutions tailored to the evolving needs of funds, asset managers, and institutional investors. This innovation underscores the accelerating momentum behind institutional adoption, ushering in a new era for digital assets defined by trust, transparency, and innovation.
