Anchorage Digital Launches Native TRX Staking for Institutional Clients

Anchorage Digital, the first federally chartered crypto bank in the US, has added native TRX staking for its institutional clients. This move completes a multi-phase integration that started with basic custody and allows big-money players to earn yield on Tron's native token without leaving a regulated platform.

The supply of USDT on Tron has surpassed $85 billion as of early 2026, making it one of the largest stablecoin networks. Anchorage decided to follow where the money flows, providing compliance infrastructure for institutions that want to tap into this high-volume network.

The staking component is available through a concierge service, requiring clients to coordinate with a Relationship Manager to execute operations. There's also a 14-day unbonding period for unstaking, which prevents validators from rapidly exiting during network stress.
