Moonstake Partners With FIO To Support FIO Staking

SINGAPORE, Feb 15, 2022 - (ACN Newswire) - Today, Moonstake is happy to announce our partnership with FIO Protocol, a leading blockchain protocol that aims to enable a better way of sending and receiving crypto. Through this partnership, Moonstake will collaborate with the FIO development team to enable staking functionality for FIO tokens on our wallets as an official Block Producer for the FIO network.

Moonstake launched its staking business in 2020 with the aim to create the largest staking network in Asia. Since then, it has developed the most user-friendly Web Wallet and Mobile Wallet (iOS / Android) with support for over 2000 cryptocurrencies. After a full-scale operation launched in August 2020, Moonstake's total staking assets have grown rapidly to reach $1.8 Billion, allowing Moonstake to become one of the top 10 staking providers globally. Currently, Moonstake supports staking of 14 high-demand PoS coins, 2 high-demand NFT standards ERC-721 and Cardano.

Meanwhile, FIO (short for Foundation for Interwallet Operability) was founded in 2020 and aims to enable easier, safer and more joyful crypto transactions on any type of token or coin. The FIO Protocol is designed to ensure the cryptocurrency user experience is uncomplicated and lays the foundation for cryptocurrency mass adoption. Long complex addresses have been replaced with user-customized FIO Addresses such as "user@fio"; that enable decentralized sending, receiving and payment requests (invoices, order carts, etc.), as well as, cross-chain end-to-end encrypted metadata (the information for those invoices, order carts, etc.) that can work across all blockchains.

Currently, FIO staking is live on their Mainnet, but the official Staking Activation is not until 22nd February, 2022. Moonstake aims to enable FIO staking prior to this activation date so that our users can enjoy the greatest amount of earning potential per token staked. With seasoned development teams and robust enterprise partnership networks across the globe, the collaboration between Moonstake and FIO Protocol promises to bring about a satisfactory staking experience for FIO holders on Moonstake Wallet.

Mitsuru Tezuka, Founder at Moonstake says:

"We're excited to partner with FIO, a leading blockchain protocol that aims to simplify and enhance user experience with digital assets. Sending and receiving are the most basic activities of any crypto owner and we believe that FIO's solution of a simplified, memorable crypto handle for everyone will significantly improve the experience of using crypto. We look forward to bringing the great ecosystem of FIO to our user community worldwide through this strategic partnership as well as opportunities for deeper collaboration with the team to deliver greater value to the crypto community at large."

Luke Stokes, Managing Director at FIO Protocol, says:

"We're excited to see the FIO Protocol join the family of excellent token projects currently supported by Moonstake's staking ecosystem. Just as we focus on improving the usability of sending and receiving cryptocurrency, Moonstake is making the process of staking your tokens easier as well. We're looking forward to continuing to work together to make cryptocurrency easier for everyone."
