Miami, FL, December 11th, 2025, Chainwire
Everstake, one of the largest global non-custodial staking providers for institutional and retail clients, and KODA (Korea Digital Asset), South Korea’s largest institutional digital asset custodian, have announced a strategic partnership to introduce secure, compliant, and scalable staking solutions to financial institutions and enterprises in the Korean market.
In 2025, South Korea’s regulatory stance toward digital assets shifted favorably, driving growing demand from banks, corporations, and fintech companies to participate in blockchain ecosystems. The Everstake-KODA partnership will establish a transparent and compliant channel for these institutions to access staking yields in a secure way.
As part of the collaboration, KODA will launch dedicated KODA-branded nodes operated by Everstake, combining local reputation and regulatory clarity with Everstake’s white-label staking infrastructure with 99.98% uptime, supported by globally recognized security and compliance standards, including SOC 2, ISO 27001, and NIST CSF.
Through this partnership, Korean institutions will benefit from Everstake’s global security standards that help meet internal and regulatory risk-management requirements, while KODA’s domestic regulatory expertise will ensure that all staking services align with South Korea’s strict financial compliance environment.
“Institutions in Korea expect reliability, compliance, and full transparency. Everstake’s infrastructure meets these requirements at the highest level, which is why we chose them as our staking technology partner,” said Jin Seok Cho, CEO of KODA. “Through this collaboration, we will be able to offer the market a trusted staking experience under the KODA brand, powered by Everstake’s technology.”
“Our mission is to make staking secure and accessible for institutions worldwide”, said Bohdan Opryshko, Co-Founder and COO at Everstake. “Partnering with KODA allows us to bring that mission to South Korea, combining their regulatory expertise with our operational experience across global PoS networks.”
