Winklevoss Twins’ Gemini Brings Ethereum Staking to the UK with Gemini Staking Pro

Winklevoss Twins Introduce Gemini Staking Pro in the UK

Gemini, the cryptocurrency exchange backed by the Winklevoss twins, expands its global footprint with the introduction of Ethereum staking in the UK. The Gemini Staking Pro allows institutions and affluent individuals to become Ethereum validators by locking up a minimum of 32 Ether (ETH), approximately $60,000 at the time of this report.

Service Exclusive to the UK

The staking service, an initiative of Gemini Trust Company, is immediately available on the Gemini web interface. Gemini Staking Pro debuts as the only staking product in the UK, with the platform running institutional staking exclusively in the region. The service is also currently live in several countries, including the US (excluding New York), Singapore, Hong Kong, Australia, Brazil, and over 30 others.

Unregulated by the Financial Conduct Authority

The UK’s Financial Conduct Authority does not regulate Gemini’s staking services, as per the announcement. Despite this, the platform has guaranteed to reimburse stakers for certain penalties imposed in connection with staking. The firm promises to simplify the staking process, operating the validator nodes to help users avoid small mistakes leading to network penalties and loss of staked tokens, known as “slashing.”

Ethereum’s Increased Validator Requirements

As Ethereum developers contemplate raising the maximum Ether requirement for becoming a validator to 2,048 ETH, roughly $3.9 million, Gemini’s service retains the minimum staking requirement at 32 ETH. This move comes amid the US-based exchange facing a lawsuit from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission over alleged violations related to offering unregistered securities via its lending platform, Gemini Earn. Despite this, Gemini plans to further expand into the Asia-Pacific region.

Facing Challenges and Expanding Horizons

Despite the looming lawsuit from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, Gemini remains undeterred and continues to innovate and expand. The introduction of Gemini Staking Pro in the UK underscores the company’s commitment to making the staking process more accessible and streamlined for institutions and high-net-worth individuals. While staking comes with its own set of challenges, Gemini promises to shoulder the technical aspects, providing a safe environment for users to stake their Ether.

As the cryptocurrency landscape continues to evolve, Gemini’s proactive approach to offering new services and expanding to new regions is indicative of its ambition to remain at the forefront of the crypto revolution. Only time will tell if these strategic moves will secure its position in the ever-competitive world of cryptocurrencies. But for now, with the debut of Ethereum staking in the UK, it seems that Gemini is making all the right moves.
