Republic Technologies has initiated the use of institutional services from Kraken to support its Ethereum infrastructure, including validator management and attestation operations.

On July 29, 2025, the integration was officially announced. This move is intended to enhance operational efficiency in treasury deployment associated with Republic’s blockchain activities. Kraken, a digital asset exchange established since 2011, caters to institutional clients across more than 190 countries. The platform undergoes regulatory oversight in the United States, Canada, and Europe, and it holds SOC 2 Type II certification. Additionally, Kraken adheres to standard AML and KYC protocols and offers independently audited proof-of-reserves.

Support for the Attestation Platform

Republic’s infrastructure depends on Ethereum validators to generate cryptographic attestations. These attestations, in the form of on-chain proofs, are used to verify data, actions, or identities within decentralized systems. Representatives from Republic state that the integration with Kraken has made the efficient deployment of the company’s ETH-denominated treasury possible, which funds the validator operations. This supports the reliability of Republic’s attestation network.

Officials from Republic noted that partnering with Kraken allows for more robust support for its validator infrastructure while aligning with its compliance and operational standards.

This move is part of Republic’s broader strategy to expand its Ethereum-based infrastructure, which includes a proprietary attestation platform aimed at providing verifiable data integrity for decentralized applications.

Republic Technologies Inc. operates validator and attestation networks designed to maintain data integrity across Ethereum-based systems.
