Intellistake Technologies Corp. (CSE: ISTK; OTCQB: ISTKF; FSE: E41) has crossed a big milestone today: its own institutional-grade self-custody wallet and validator infrastructure are officially up and running. This puts the company squarely in the driver’s seat for blockchain-based revenue operations, with all the heavy-lifting components now in place.
“With our infrastructure now live, we’ve taken the first key step toward securely participating in blockchain networks,” said Jason Dussault, CEO of Intellistake. “We’ve established the operational capabilities to support validator activity, digital asset management, and future growth in decentralized technologies.”
Rock-Solid Security, Thanks to Fireblocks & SVH
Intellistake built its self-custody system alongside Singularity Venture Hub (SVH), tapping into Fireblocks’ industry-leading security platform. Behind the scenes, multi-party computation (MPC) and Intel SGX-protected transfer environments work together to keep private keys locked down, yet fully controlled by Intellistake and its partners at all times. In plain English: nobody else can fiddle with your assets.
“This is a critical foundation for any serious digital asset venture,” said Alessandro Spanò, Chief Operating Officer of Singularity Venture Hub. “By launching both MPC-based self-custody infrastructure and becoming a node validator, Intellistake has addressed two of the most essential components of digital asset readiness. These systems are key to enabling secure asset control, protocol-level participation, and future integration with institutional digital asset strategies.”
Joining the Fetch.ai Network
On the validation front, Intellistake’s node is now live on Fetch.ai (FET), a blockchain geared toward AI-driven applications. Validators are the engines of proof-of-stake chains: they confirm transactions, secure consensus, and in exchange, earn staking rewards in FET tokens. At today’s network parameters, that translates to roughly 6.8% APR, though exact yields will ebb and flow with network activity.
Fetch.ai itself is one of only eight AI-focused tokens boasting a market cap north of USD 1 billion, and it ranks in the top five for daily trading volume, around USD 133 million. Intellistake is now perfectly positioned to:
- Stake its own FET holdings and earn rewards;
- Invite outside token holders to delegate to its node; and
- Offer a one-stop validator solution to enterprise clients.
Anyone delegating to Intellistake’s node will pay a modest 8% commission on their rewards, an arrangement designed to reward uptime and performance for everyone involved.
An On-Ramp for Institutions
Beyond staking, Intellistake’s self-custody and validator combo provides a turnkey path for traditional financial institutions dipping their toes into crypto. The company can spin up secure wallets, deploy validators on multiple chains (think Ethereum, Polkadot or Cosmos), and deliver real-time dashboards, all while handling the gnarly details of key management, node maintenance, and compliance.
Look for a follow-up update soon, where Intellistake will share its first FET purchases and early staking stats. In the meantime, starting at 12:00 noon EST on Wednesday, August 13, 2025, FET holders can head to Intellistake’s website to delegate their tokens. The portal will feature live performance charts, audit logs, and on-chain reporting, so every delegator knows exactly what’s happening under the hood. Intellistake is carving out its niche as a trusted partner, marrying ironclad security with the revenue upside of proof-of-stake validation.
