We provide enterprise-grade validator operations across leading blockchain networks and help institutions access decentralised finance with trustless, transparent, and secure technology.
Our mission is to build resilient staking infrastructure that upholds decentralisation and empowers institutions to participate safely and at scale.

Over the past years, Blockscape has established a proven track record in running validators and staking infrastructure across Ethereum, Cosmos, and a lot of other ecosystems.
We operate both stand-alone and integrated infrastructure stacks, offering custom SLA-backed non-custodial staking solutions for enterprise clients.
