September 17, 2025 — Last week, Fireblocks hosted the “Fireblocks’ Network Awards”, alongside the annual SPARK 2025 event. These awards recognize customers and partners who are pushing the forefront of blockchain innovation and exemplifying the highest industry standards.
Fireblocks recognized Figment as the Security Champion of the Year, accepted by COO & Chief Security Officer, Annalea Sanders. This award reflects Figment’s unwavering commitment to upholding the strongest security practices and setting a benchmark for excellence across the industry. It also reinforces Figment’s role as a trusted partner to the world’s largest exchanges, banks, and asset managers.
“Figment has consistently demonstrated that world-class staking requires more than just scale; it requires security, compliance, and operational excellence at every layer. At Fireblocks, we’re proud to recognize Figment as Security Champion of the Year, not only for their technical leadership but also for setting the benchmark that enables institutions to stake with confidence.” – Adam Levine, SVP Corporate Development & Partnerships, CEO of Fireblocks Trust Company.
At Figment, security is foundational. As the digital asset ecosystem matures, institutional allocators increasingly demand not just strong uptime or rewards, but infrastructure that delivers on compliance, operational resilience, and technical assurance.
Too often, the importance of security and compliance is overlooked in favor of marginal performance gains. Figment operates hundreds of validators across 40+ networks, optimized for uptime, security, and compliance. In a market where risk management is central to institutional adoption, our SOC 2 certification, slashing insurance coverage, and OFAC-compliant relay infrastructure provide a truly differentiated proposition.
Recent industry security incidents underscore Figment’s guiding principle: “safety over liveness” is non-negotiable.
Looking Ahead
Recognition from Fireblocks, a trusted custodian and infrastructure partner to thousands of institutions, affirms Figment’s leadership in staking security. As institutions expand into staking, tokenization, and broader blockchain applications, Figment remains committed to leading with transparency, resilience, and operational excellence.
As part of our ongoing commitment to security, Figment continues to monitor potential threats and industry incidents. The most recent was the security attacks on September 8, 2025, including both the NPM Supply Chain and SwissBorg incidents. For more information, read the full update here.
