Originating from the Lugano Plan ₿ initiative backed by the City of Lugano and Tether, Luganodes secures over $2.5B in staked assets while maintaining 99.9%+ uptime and a zero slashing record. The company holds ISO 27001: 2022, SOC 2 Type II, and GDPR certifications, and serves 60+ institutional clients including BitGo (digital asset custodian), Anchorage (regulated crypto bank), Hex Trust (licensed digital asset custodian), Bitfinex (crypto exchange), Tether (stablecoin issuer), Ledger Enterprise (institutional custody), and CoinList (token issuance platform).
Luganodes competes in the institutional staking space alongside providers such as Figment, Chorus One, and Kiln, and differentiates through its compliance-first Swiss operations, zero slashing record, and genesis validator positions across major chains.
Luganodes provides a fully integrated institutional infrastructure stack:
- Non-custodial staking across 40+ PoS networks
- Unified Staking API: stake, unstake, redelegate, claim, and withdraw
- Enterprise RPC services: dedicated, single-tenant, bare-metal
- Managed and white-label validator nodes
- Fixed-rate ETH staking aligned with the CESR™ (Composite Ether Staking Rate)
- Protocol engineering: testnet participation, tooling, and debugging
- Custom reporting and institutional-grade tooling
Yes. Luganodes is one of the most credentialed institutional staking providers in the industry. It holds ISO 27001: 2022, SOC 2 Type II, and GDPR certifications, and was among the earliest node operators globally to obtain all three simultaneously. Additional safeguards include:
| Trust Layer | Detail |
|---|---|
| ISO 27001: 2022 | Information security management |
| SOC 2 Type II | Security, availability and confidentiality |
| GDPR | European data protection compliance |
| Quantstamp Audit | Independent slashing risk assessment |
| Chainproof Insurance | Institutional coverage against slashing losses |
| Slashing History | Zero, across all networks and market cycles |
Most staking providers are either built for retail users or are large generalist infrastructure firms that treat staking as a commodity service. Luganodes occupies a distinct position: institutional-grade, non-custodial, compliance-first, and deeply integrated across protocols.
