BitGo Now Supports Custody and Staking of Tezos’ XTZ

BitGo Now Supports Custody and Staking of Tezos’ XTZ

BitGo has added custodial and staking services for the Tezos blockchain’s native token, XTZ.

  • Investors who store their XTZ with BitGo will earn an annual staking return of around 6% across BitGo’s hot and cold wallets, the custodial firm told CoinDesk on Thursday.
  • Cryptos native to proof-of-stake consensus blockchains generate returns for their holders as a reward for them lending their personal computing power (or that of a delegated validator, such as BitGo Trust) toward securing the network. 
  • Upon entering the staking space in October 2019, BitGo added support for proof-of-stake tokens dash and algo. XTZ’s market cap of around $2.4 billion at press time dwarfs those tokens.
  • BitGo intends to add custodial support for Tezos blockchain-based tokens in the coming months, the firm said.
