December 15, 2025 – Komainu, the institutional gateway for digital assets backed by Laser Digital and Blockstream, announces custody support for HYPE on HyperEVM, and staking for HYPE via HyperCore, marking a significant step in expanding institutional access to one of the fastest-growing DeFi ecosystems.   

Hyperliquid is a high-performance Layer-1 blockchain designed for on-chain trading and decentralized finance, featuring a fully on-chain order book and EVM compatibility through HyperEVM. Its native token, HYPE, underpins the network’s Proof-of-Stake consensus and rapidly expanding liquidity infrastructure. 

Through this integration, Komainu’s institutional clients can now: 

  • Securely custody HYPE in segregated, on-chain wallets with full transparency 
  • Participate in staking via Komainu’s trusted validator partners, earning daily rewards with automatic compounding 
  • Receive whiteglove support from Komainu’s team, offering bank-grade governance and operational standards 

“Komainu’s mission is to bridge the gap between traditional finance and digital assets with secure, regulated solutions,” said Sebastian Widmann, Head of Dubai at Komainu. “By supporting Hyperliquid, we’re enabling institutions to participate in a next-generation DeFi protocol without compromising on compliance, custodial integrity, or operational control.” 

This launch builds on Komainu’s broader staking infrastructure, which is purpose-built for institutional investors, allowing clients to earn blockchain rewards while their assets remain in secure, regulated, segregated wallets. Komainu automates delegation and reward compounding, enabling active participation in Proof-of-Stake networks. This solution maintains custodial integrity and full on-chain transparency, ensuring all activity meets institutional standards.
