P2P.org Appoints Betsabe Botaitis as Chief Financial Officer

<h2 id="at-a-glance"><strong>At a Glance:</strong></h2><ul><li>Tangem app now connects users to P2P.org’s validator infrastructure for ADA staking.</li><li>ADA (the native token of Cardano) holders can now stake Cardano seamlessly via Tangem — secure keys, easy UX, and enterprise-grade reliability.</li><li>The collaboration is a blueprint for wallets, custodians, and fintech platforms to integrate staking without building infrastructure in-house.</li><li>Cardano is the first step — more networks and integrations are on the way.</li></ul><h2 id="cardano%E2%80%99s-vision-of-decentralization"><strong>Cardano’s Vision of Decentralization</strong></h2><p>Cardano has earned a reputation as one of the most research-driven and sustainable blockchains in the world. Its methodical, peer-reviewed approach has helped it build a network that prioritizes decentralization, scalability, and long-term adoption. Unlike projects that chase short-term hype, Cardano has consistently focused on building infrastructure that can stand the test of time.</p><p>At the heart of Cardano’s design is staking. By delegating ADA to validators, holders play an active role in securing the network, processing transactions, and sustaining decentralization. It’s one of the most community-centric models in blockchain — the foundation of governance and alignment across the Cardano ecosystem.</p><h2 id="why-staking-matters-now"><strong>Why Staking Matters Now</strong></h2><p>Staking has become one of the most critical mechanisms for ensuring trust and accountability in proof-of-stake networks. It aligns validators and token holders, strengthens network security, and allows participants to support the networks they believe in directly.</p><p>For ADA holders, staking represents not just participation, but contribution in Cardano’s long-term vision. Yet for many, the process has often been fragmented — requiring multiple apps, unfamiliar interfaces, or trust in validators they don’t fully know.</p><p>This is the problem the Tangem–P2P.org integration solves.</p><h2 id="tangem-hardware-simplicity-meets-staking-power"><strong>Tangem: Hardware Simplicity Meets Staking Power</strong></h2><p>Tangem has long been recognized for making self-custody straightforward. Its credit-card-sized hardware wallet lets users securely hold and transact crypto without technical complexity. Private keys remain locked inside the secure chip, while the wallet’s design makes it usable by anyone.</p><p>Now, Tangem users can go further: <strong>staking ADA directly from within their wallet by delegating to P2P.org’s validators.</strong></p><p>It’s a major step forward in accessibility and convenience:</p><ul><li><strong>Simplicity:</strong> Stake ADA in just a few taps, without needing external apps or interfaces.</li><li><strong>Security:</strong> Assets remain fully under user control, with keys stored on Tangem’s secure hardware.</li><li><strong>Accessibility:</strong> Both first-time users and experienced holders can participate without barriers.</li></ul><p>With this integration, Tangem expands its comprehensive self-custody ecosystem, adding a direct gateway for Cardano participation.</p><h2 id="p2porg-institutional-grade-validation-now-integrated"><strong>P2P.org: Institutional-Grade Validation, Now Integrated</strong></h2><p>Behind Tangem’s seamless UX lies P2P.org’s validator infrastructure. With over <strong>$10 billion staked across 50+ networks</strong>, P2P.org is a leading staking infrastructure provider used by exchanges, custodians, and fintech platforms worldwide.</p><p>For Tangem users, this integration means:</p><ul><li><strong>Proven Reliability:</strong> P2P.org maintains industry-leading uptime and validator performance.</li><li><strong>Institutional Trust:</strong> The same infrastructure that powers staking for institutions now supports Cardano users on Tangem.</li><li><strong>Multi-Chain Expertise:</strong> Experience running validators across Ethereum, Solana, Polkadot, and dozens of other networks now extends to ADA staking inside Tangem.</li></ul><p>The result: ADA holders can delegate to experienced validators, without ever leaving their Tangem wallet.</p><h2 id="why-this-collaboration-matters-for-cardano"><strong>Why This Collaboration Matters for Cardano</strong></h2><p>The integration arrives at an important time. Cardano adoption is expanding across DeFi, governance, and enterprise applications. As more ADA enters staking, the ecosystem needs solutions that combine accessibility with reliability.</p><p>The Tangem–P2P.org collaboration strengthens Cardano by:</p><ul><li><strong>Lowering barriers to staking:</strong> Secure, hardware-level delegation in a few taps.</li><li><strong>Boosting decentralization:</strong> Broadening the base of participants strengthens the validator set.</li><li><strong>Bridging retail and institutional staking:</strong> Bringing consumer hardware wallets and enterprise-grade infra into alignment.</li></ul><h2 id="beyond-tangem-a-blueprint-for-wallets-custodians-everywhere"><strong>Beyond Tangem: A Blueprint for Wallets &amp; Custodians Everywhere</strong></h2><p>This is also a model for how wallets, exchanges, and custody providers can add staking to their own platforms.</p><p>The integration shows that partners can:</p><ul><li><strong>Easily embed staking via P2P.org’s API or validator endpoints.</strong></li><li><strong>Offer multi-chain staking</strong> (Ethereum, Solana, Polkadot, Cardano, and more) without building infrastructure themselves.</li><li><strong>Rely on established validators</strong> with extensive experience securing large-scale staking networks..</li></ul><p>Tangem sets the standard. It demonstrates how a user-first wallet can integrate staking quickly, securely, and at scale — setting a precedent for the wider industry.</p><h2 id="a-future-of-inclusive-staking"><strong>A Future of Inclusive Staking</strong></h2><p>The future of staking will be defined by accessibility and trust. Users need tools that are intuitive and secure, while networks and institutions need validators that are reliable and professional.</p><p>Tangem and P2P.org are showing how these two requirements can come together. For ADA holders, the result is a seamless way to stake directly from their wallet. For the industry, it’s evidence that staking can be integrated into any product without sacrificing user experience or operational standards.</p><p>With Tangem, P2P.org has delivered more than just a new staking flow — it has shown the path forward for wallets and custodians everywhere.</p><p>Together, we are setting the stage for a staking ecosystem that is inclusive, reliable, and ready to scale.</p><p><strong>Disclaimer: </strong>Staking rewards are not guaranteed and may vary. They depend on blockchain protocol changes, validator performance, and network-specific rules outside of P2P.org’s control. Participation in staking carries risks, including protocol issues, slashing, and technical failures. Users should conduct their own research, seek professional advice where necessary, and ensure they fully understand the risks before participating.</p>
