Odaily Planet Daily News Bitwise Asset Management Inc. has acquired Ethereum staking service provider Attestant, aiming to expand beyond its core business. The specific terms of the transaction have not been disclosed. After the transaction is completed, Bitwise's asset management scale will reach US$10 billion. In addition, 11 employees of Attestant will join Bitwise. "We are now entering a new chapter of maturity in this field, and I think at this stage, the most useful thing for customers is that they want you to reach a certain scale and provide a wide range of functions," Bitwise CEO Hunter Horsley said in an interview. He added that although currently one in five Bitwise customers want to stake tokens to earn returns, most customers may have this demand in a few years. (Bloomberg)
