AMINA Bank is bringing institutional-grade staking to the Polygon network.

By offering a regulated way for institutions to stake POL tokens, the bank is enabling professional investors to actively participate in blockchain networks. 

Institutional POL Staking with Up to 15% Rewards

The Swiss crypto bank regulated by FINMA, has become the first in the world to offer institutional staking services for the Polygon network’s native POL token. Through a partnership with the Polygon Foundation, clients can earn up to 15% rewards. Myles Harrison, Chief Product Officer of AMINA Bank, said the bank is proud to offer institutional clients the “most competitive rewards.”

Building on its POL custody and trading services, AMINA now gives institutional clients a regulated way to participate in one of Web3’s most widely adopted networks, placing the bank ahead of others in offering this service. 

Notably, major financial players like BlackRock, JPMorgan, and Franklin Templeton are using Polygon for their tokenization and on-chain finance initiatives.

Polygon – A Leading Institutional Blockchain

The timing could not be any better. 

Polygon is leading the way in everyday payments under $100 across all EVM chains, holding over 30% of the market. It also has a $3.4 billion stablecoin supply and dominates emerging markets, accounting for 90% of stablecoin activity.

AMINA’s staking services help support this growing demand for stablecoin payments, with all transactions secured and validated by POL tokens.

The network leads in small and micro USDC payments, and offers lightning-fast transactions at less than $0.01 per transfer. Polygon’s Proof-of-Stake chain has also crossed $1 billion in tokenized real-world assets, and hosts major institutional projects like BlackRock’s BUIDL Fund.

Institutions Actively Participate In Blockchain

Marc Boiron, CEO of Polygon Labs stressed that institutions are moving beyond just buying tokens, they want to actively support and participate in blockchain networks that matter. “POL is engineered to scale the internet’s value layer, and this initiative gives real capital a regulated, bank-grade entry point to secure it,” he added.

AMINA’s POL staking service offers secure, institutional-grade custody and risk management, allowing qualified investors, such as ultra-high-net-worth individuals, asset managers, family offices, pension funds, and corporate treasuries, to participate in blockchain network activity, while meeting all regulatory requirements.

Staking has traditionally been the domain of crypto enthusiasts. Now, as more institutions adopt blockchain technology, AMINA is giving its clients a regulated way to earn rewards while helping to strengthen the Polygon network’s security.

Polygon notes that this move marks an important step in institutional crypto adoption. With a regulated bank like AMINA joining as a staking provider, Polygon strengthens its reputation as a trusted, enterprise-ready blockchain backed by professionally managed capital.

Staking-as-a-service is now a reality for regulated banking, with AMINA Bank and POL leading the way.
