mETH Protocol is pleased to share that Copper, a leading institutional digital asset custodian, now provides regulated custody for mETH, our Ethereum-native liquid staking token.

With Copper’s support, institutions can securely hold and manage mETH while accessing its native yield, and deploy it as capital-efficient collateral across trading, restaking, and treasury strategies, bridging both DeFi protocols and centralized exchanges.

Institutional-Grade Custody and Market Infrastructure

Copper, a licensed and insured custodian, delivers MPC-secured custody and connectivity to major exchanges, supporting infrastructure across trading, settlement, and treasury operations. With over 50 active integrations, Copper enables institutions to participate in tokenized yield strategies and deploy capital efficiently across on-chain markets.

“We’re seeing increased interest from clients building scalable yield, and the addition of mETH reflects growing demand for liquid staking assets that meet institutional standards for capital deployment.” - Ben Lorente, Strategic Alliances Director at Copper.

Advancing mETH's Role in Regulated Markets

Since 2023, mETH has steadily gained traction across DeFi and exchange platforms. Today, it is integrated on major venues such as Bybit and Kraken, supported by leading validator partners including A41, and P2P, and featured in offerings like Bybit Earn. These milestones highlight mETH’s dual function as a composable DeFi-native token and a core ETH access point for regulated yield strategies.

mETH is also embedded in DAO and corporate treasury frameworks, including NounsDAO allocations and Mantle Treasury holdings, establishing it as a versatile and trusted instrument for restaking, structured yield, and capital deployment. Copper’s custody support further extends mETH’s reach across regulated platforms, providing a reliable channel for funds and institutions to participate in Ethereum-native yield.
