For institutional Bitcoin holders, the math has been frustrating: watch your BTC sit idle, or navigate a maze of wrapped tokens, conversion risks, and operational complexity that makes compliance teams nervous.
Babylon changed the game. By introducing native Bitcoin staking, it created a breakthrough that unlocked real utility for BTC without requiring wrapping or conversion. Through Babylon, institutions can delegate their Bitcoin directly and earn rewards from Bitcoin-Secured Networks (BSNs), marking a fundamental shift in how BTC can generate value while staying on its native chain.
Now, P2P.org builds on this foundation by helping institutional clients receive their rewards directly in Bitcoin. This removes the need for conversions, simplifies reporting, and keeps everything in the asset they already hold and trust — Bitcoin.
Bitcoin staking that works like Bitcoin should
Your BTC participates in network security through Babylon's protocol, earns staking rewards, and those rewards settle directly in BTC. No wrapped tokens. No manual conversions. No explaining to your CFO why your Bitcoin position suddenly includes three other assets.
Built for institutional operations from day one
SOC 2 Type I controls, that make compliance reviews smooth instead of stressful.
Proven at scale
Our infrastructure secures $10B+ across 40+ networks. We've handled the edge cases, optimized for uptime, and built the monitoring systems that institutional volumes demand.This added layer removes the need for internal teams to manage swaps, navigate low-liquidity assets, or reconcile multiple tokens across wallets. Instead, institutions can stake BTC and receive BTC — no manual conversions, no complex custody workflows, and no added compliance overhead. It’s a clean, simplified path that aligns with internal risk and treasury management policies, especially for funds and custodians that are unable or unwilling to hold long-tail assets like BSN tokens.
Security posture: SOC 2 Type I controls, segregated key management, role-based access protocols, and 24/7 monitoring. The same security standards we apply to our $10B+ in secured assets.
Operational reliability: targets backed by redundant infrastructure, automated failover systems, and incident response playbooks refined across 40+ networks.
White-glove support: Dedicated onboarding, SLA-backed response times, and the custom reporting formats your finance team needs.
This product is built for institutions: custodians, exchanges, ETF issuers, and other large-scale Bitcoin holders, that want to offer staking without the operational complexity of managing altcoin rewards. By delivering rewards directly in BTC, it removes the need to support or custody BSN-native tokens, simplifies internal workflows, and eliminates the hassle of reward conversions and reconciliations. This makes it easier to integrate Bitcoin staking into existing infrastructure, while enabling institutions to offer a clean, BTC-native experience to their users, even if they don’t support the underlying BSN tokens. The result is a more attractive, scalable, and compliant product offering with none of the usual overhead.
Over the next quarters, we'll expand this foundation:
We’re just getting started. As more Bitcoin-native protocols emerge and institutional interest deepens, our goal is to provide the foundation and tooling needed to support this next chapter of Bitcoin utility — secure, scalable, and truly native.
For institutions: Our team is ready to walk through implementation, SLA structures, and reporting requirements. The onboarding process is designed to fit your existing operational framework.
For platforms and builders: Bitcoin staking infrastructure can become a clean building block for institutional products. Let's explore integration opportunities.
For Bitcoin treasuries: Start with a pilot allocation to understand the operational flow and reporting outputs before scaling to larger positions.
Ready to explore Bitcoin staking that actually works for institutional operations?
Is this through Babylon?
Yes - initial support is via the Babylon protocol, operated by P2P.org.
How are rewards paid?
Under the standard non-custodial flow, rewards settle in BTC (no client-side conversions).
Do you custody assets?
No. Custody remains with the client (self/MPC/qualified custodian).
Is this lending or wrapped BTC?
No. This is protocol participation with BTC-denominated settlement; it does not rely on lending or wrapped assets.
Will you support other protocols?
Babylon is first; additional integrations may be added based on demand and due diligence.
Rewards are variable and not guaranteed. Settlement, timing, and amounts depend on protocol and network conditions. This material is informational and not an offer, solicitation, or recommendation. Availability and terminology may vary by jurisdiction. P2P.org operates validators and does not provide interest-bearing accounts, lending, or brokerage services.
