Bitcoin Suisse, Switzerland’s crypto finance service provider providing trading, staking, custody, and lending services, is participating in the token sale of Aztec Labs alongside Swiss institutional staking partner Solstice. This move reinforces their commitment to supporting fundamental infrastructure development that supports the smart contract powered Ethereum ecosystem.

Bitcoin Suisse provides custody and staking services under Swiss regulatory oversight, providing the “compliant infrastructure institutions need to engage with privacy-preserving blockchain tech.”

By offering regulated access pathways for clients, Bitcoin Suisse will enable market participants “to engage with privacy-enhancing blockchain tech while meeting their security and compliance requirements.”

Solstice, a Swiss institutional staking infrastructure company with deep expertise in Ethereum operations, will “leverage its own validator infrastructure to support Aztec’s transaction-ordering systems, ensuring the privacy network operates with institutional-grade reliability and performance. ”

By participating in the Aztec token sale, Bitcoin Suisse and Solstice are acting as ecosystem partners and “as early supporters of the network, backing the protocol’s growth from Switzerland with both capital and operational expertise.”

Yves Holenstein, Head of Custody & Staking, Bitcoin Suisse said that they are eager to “participate in the Aztec token sale and join forces with Aztec Labs and Solstice to accelerate the evolution of Ethereum infrastructure from Switzerland.”

This collab leverages Switzerland‘s position as a hub for blockchain adoption, bringing together the country’s “regulatory clarity, technical expertise, and institutional infrastructure. Switzerland’s deep cultural appreciation for privacy makes it a home for tech that enables institutions to maintain confidentiality around business activities and on-chain interactions.”

By supporting Aztec’s mission to build programmable privacy into Ethereum applications, Bitcoin Suisse continues its “tradition of backing transformative blockchain technology that solves real-world adoption challenges. ”

As covered, Bitcoin Suisse is one of Switzerland’s crypto finance service providers.

Founded back in 2013 by crypto-native professionals, it offers a suite of trading, staking, custody and lending services that are said to be “geared towards private and institutional clients.”

The firm is reportedly headquartered in Zug and says it has built a team of more than 200 qualified professionals working out of locations based in Switzerland, Europe and the Middle East.
