The move strengthens bbSOL’s position as a trusted, institutional-grade liquid staking token (LST) in the Solana ecosystem.
It provides a compliant pathway for regulated entities to participate in decentralized finance with confidence.
Anchorage Digital Brings Bank-Level Security to Solana Staking
Liquid staking allows investors to earn rewards for securing a blockchain while keeping their tokens available for other uses. bbSOL, Bybit’s version of a staked SOL token, lets users enjoy Solana staking rewards without locking up their funds. With Anchorage Digital’s integration, bbSOL holders can now store their assets under bank-grade custody, benefiting from both federal oversight and institutional compliance standards.
This partnership represents a major milestone in the merging of traditional finance and decentralized innovation. Bybit’s Head of Spot and Founder of Byreal, Emily Bao, called the collaboration “a major leap in bbSOL’s evolution as an institutional-ready product.” She added that combining liquidity with regulatory assurance gives institutions “a compliant and transparent entry point into Solana’s DeFi landscape.”
