Colossus Digital — An Introduction
A quick breakdown of our strategic approach to Blockchain.
First, a brief history lesson…
Colossus was one of the first programmable electronic computers in the history of computing, developed by mathematician Alan Turing to decipher the Enigma code used by the Nazis to protect correspondences between Adolf Hitler and his chiefs of staff, as well as Japanese Purple–Red communications.
Now, the curtain-raiser…
Colossus Digital develops technological solutions to facilitate investments in digital assets. We provide a wide range of digital services like Regulated custody, Custodial Staking and digital payments.
We operate as a Node Validator on some of the most prominent PoS (Proof-of-Stake) blockchains, like Eth, Cosmos, Kava, Tezos and more chains developed on monthly base. Through analysis models, we find the best opportunities in terms of returns, and our technical team studies the most suitable solutions to guarantee the security of the funds used.
Colossus provides tailored solutions for regulated custody,
safe staking and digital payments.
Blockchains, Staking & Node Validation
Validator nodes are the backbone of Blockchain networks; these nodes often use PoS consensus algorithms which require a participant to stake tokens and verify and create blocks on a blockchain.
Staking on a PoS blockchain network allows one to earn passive income on digital assets through block rewards while participating in the protocol’s governance.
Colossus focuses on direct blockchain node validation rather than delegation through other service providers.
Problem
Handling a validator node requires deep technological knowledge and continuous monitoring of adopted solutions.
Stakes and rewards are exposed to the huge volatility of cryptocurrencies, which could erase any capital invested in staking.
Solution
Colossus developed a proprietary platform to handle parallel validator nodes on multiple blockchains, allowing daily rebalancing to focus on the best staking opportunities.
We position ourselves at the crossroad between financial and technological players.
Our Competitive Advantage
Regulated Custody & Insured Staking
We are an OAM regulated custodian in Italy.
We insure all the financial risks connected to staking to provide a safe, stable, fixed-income-like return.
