What Simply Staking does

Simply Staking (legal entity: Simply VC Limited) is a Malta-based blockchain infrastructure provider founded in 2018 that operates non-custodial validator nodes across 30+ proof-of-stake networks, including Ethereum, Cosmos Hub, Polkadot, NEAR, Chainlink, Polygon, EigenLayer, Lido, and emerging L1s such as Berachain, Monad, and MegaETH. The platform self-hosts hardware in Tier 3 data centers in Malta with backup sites in the Netherlands and Canada, targeting 99.99% uptime and a 99%+ uptime record, and serves retail users, institutional stakers with 100K+ positions, protocols (including a Chainlink Oracle Operator role), and developers.

The product portfolio centers on the Multichain Staking Dashboard (enabling wallet-connected staking across 20+ networks from a single interface), supported by three sub-brands: Spectrum (high-performance RPC-as-a-service for developers), Rubik (decentralized password manager), and the Berachain Faucet (developer testnet tooling). Beyond infrastructure, the company sells professional services including smart-contract security audits, blockchain consulting, governance advisory, and Nodes-As-A-Service offerings. Distribution combines product-led growth (self-serve dashboard, Keplr/Polkadot-JS integrations) with event-driven and community-led marketing (Paris Blockchain Week, EthCC, Consensus Hong Kong, Token 2049 Dubai, Proof of Talk) plus ecosystem partnerships with Chainlink, Lido, Infura (Consensys), Microsoft, Chainstack, Agoric, Ledger, and Binance (affiliate).

The business model is anchored in validator commissions charged on staking rewards distributed through the platform, augmented by usage-based RPC fees, project-based audit and consulting fees, and referral commissions from token-purchase and hardware-wallet partners. The company cites $900M+ in Total Value Locked (with some sources referencing over $1B), an AAA Verified Staking Provider rating from StakingRewards.com, and an AICPA SOC attestation supporting its institutional positioning. Ownership is private with no disclosed external investors, and the company operates with a headcount of 11-50 employees.
