Fireblocks, a leader in crypto custody technology, has officially announced its support for Soneium, a new Ethereum layer-2 blockchain developed through a partnership between Sony and Startale Labs. The addition of Soneium to Fireblocks’ platform opens the door for institutional players to securely store and manage digital assets on this cutting-edge blockchain, which aims to integrate Web2 with Web3.
As a trusted provider of crypto custody services, Fireblocks serves numerous major institutional clients, including top-tier banks. Institutional adoption of digital assets relies heavily on secure custody solutions, which are essential for hedge funds, family offices, and other capital managers who need to meet regulatory and insurance requirements.
Launched in January 2025, Soneium currently holds a total value locked (TVL) of $33.6 million and is powered by Optimism’s OP Stack. It is designed to support decentralized applications (dApps) in sectors such as gaming, entertainment, and finance. With this integration, Fireblocks will enable its clients to manage and store digital assets on the growing Soneium network.
Omer Amsel, Fireblocks’ Head of Web3, stated, “Fireblocks is excited to support Soneium’s vision of creating an open and boundaryless internet. Our collaboration will provide users and creators with secure, decentralized digital experiences while fostering innovation across the blockchain ecosystem.”
