Previously, institutional investors did not stake their cryptocurrency or participate in governance because of the need to use crypto-custodians. Coinbase<\/a> Custody is changing that with support for Tezos<\/a> staking and MakerDAO<\/a> governance for its institutional clients.<\/p>\n

On Mar. 29th, Coinbase announced<\/a> support for Tezos (XTZ) baking, the protocol\u2019s equivalent to proof-of-stake staking. \u201cWe\u2019re proud to be the first full-service, regulated, and comprehensively insured, and 100 percent offline staking provider in crypto,\u201d said the release.<\/p>\n

Following staking support, the exchange also plans to offer in-custody governance options for both Tezos and Maker.<\/p>\n

Institutional Clients Can Earn Interest on Tezos<\/h2>\n

The new staking features from will allow Coinbase Custody\u2019s institutional clients to earn \u201cpassive income,\u201d or interest, on their Tezos while enjoying the security of the service. This is critical for fund managers who have financial responsibilities to their investors; previously, staking was impractical because of security risks, the lack of insurance coverage, and certain regulatory requirements.<\/p>\n

Now, institutional clients are able to earn staking rewards with their Tezos. According to stakingrewards.com<\/a>, XTZ staking currently offers an annual yield of 7.4 percent. The higher yield may result in greater demand for XTZ from institutional investors, and recent price movement may support that assumption. According to Kathleen Breitman<\/a>, co-founder of Tezos:<\/p>\n

\u201cThe launch of Tezos staking through Coinbase Custody serves an acute need that existed up until now: a way for institutional participants who rely on a secure, offline custodian to take an active role in the network.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Within 7 hours of the announcement, Tezos was up 8.9 percent while the overall market was largely sideways, with market capitalization only increasing by 0.14 percent over that same period.<\/p>\n

According to the release, Coinbase will run its own nodes and validators for staking. The service will be \u201c100 percent offline,\u201d and the exchange will post all bond requirements for Tezos bakers. Those using the custody services will not be able to opt-out of staking, with Coinbase stating the services are \u201cnon-discretionary\u201d for its clients.<\/p>\n

Governance on Coinbase Custody for Maker and Tezos<\/h2>\n

In addition to staking support, Coinbase is adding Maker and Tezos governance options in the second quarter of 2019. MakerDAO<\/a>, one of the fastest growing Ethereum<\/a> projects, uses a DAO to maintain the dollar-peg of its Ethereum-backed stablecoin Dai<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Like staking, institutional investors previously did not have access to voting privileges if they used a custodian. Coinbase will be the first exchange to introduce these features directly into a custodian service.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re working directly with the MakerDAO team to ensure our offline storage works seamlessly with their VoteProxy smart contract<\/a>. And we\u2019re excited about all of the interesting ways we\u2019ll be able to start surfacing governance opportunities direct to our clients in-app,\u201d stated Coinbase in its release.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

According to Rune Christensen, founder and CEO of MakerDAO:<\/p>\n

\u201cCoinbase Custody will provide an essential service by providing a way for institutional holders to participate in the system and vote with their MKR.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

MakerDAO is down 2.9 percent within the last 24 hours despite the news.<\/p>\n

Future Features and Listing Rumors<\/h2>\n

According to Joe DiPasquale, CEO of BitBull Capital<\/a>, while attending the \u201cThe State of Crypto\u201d event on Mar. 28th where Jeff John Roberts from Fortune\u2019s The Ledger interviewed Brian Armstrong\u2014CEO of Coinbase. Staking and voting support was mentioned there as well, and lending and earning features for deposits will be available a year or more into the future, according to the DiPasquale.<\/p>\n

He went on to say \u201cthe rumors about Tezos\/MakerDao being eventually listed are of course now strong due to the addition of custody for them,\u201d and Coinbase\u2019s past listing history may support these rumors.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
