PANews reported on October 9th that Swiss crypto bank AMINA has become the first bank in the world to offer compliant institutional staking services for POL, the native token of the Polygon blockchain. Through its partnership with the Polygon Foundation, AMINA clients can earn up to 15% in staking rewards, including base returns and additional incentives.

This service provides institutional clients, such as asset management firms and corporate treasuries, with a compliant path to participate in blockchain network security, while also expanding AMINA's existing POL custody and trading services. Polygon Labs CEO stated that this demonstrates a shift in institutions from simply purchasing tokens to deeply engaging with the blockchain ecosystem.
