BitGo is pleased to announce support for Initia (INIT) across both qualified custody and self-custody cold wallets, reinforcing our commitment to providing secure access to emerging Layer 1 networks and top digital assets. Staking for INIT will be available soon, enabling institutions to participate in network governance and earn rewards through BitGo’s secure infrastructure.
Initia is a Layer 1 blockchain built with the Cosmos SDK that serves as the coordination layer for a modular stack of Layer 2 rollups. Designed to simplify app-chain development, Initia offers a unique blend of high performance, interoperability, and developer flexibility through its OPinit stack—a VM-agnostic framework that supports MoveVM, WasmVM, and EVM environments.
With features like:
-
500ms block times and up to 10,000 TPS via Minitia (Initia’s Layer 2s)
-
Seamless Inter-Blockchain Communication (IBC) for cross-chain value and data transfer
-
Built-in support for staking, governance, and classic token utility
Initia is quickly gaining attention as a foundational layer for scalable, interoperable blockchain ecosystems. BitGo’s support for INIT enables projects and institutions building on Initia to safely secure their assets with industry-leading custody solutions. Stay tuned for staking availability and more updates as we continue expanding access to innovative Layer 1 and Layer 2 ecosystems.
