The Babylon Genesis1 blockchain—the first Bitcoin Secured Network (BSN)—is preparing for its Phase-2 mainnet launch in April, bringing a new era of utility to the Bitcoin ecosystem. By enabling BTC staking without the use of bridges, wrapped assets, or smart contracts, Babylon Genesis introduces a secure, on-chain method for BTC holders to participate in staking and earn rewards.
As an Institutional Finality Provider and trusted custody provider, Hex Trust is proud to support this milestone and offer institutional clients seamless access to the Babylon staking protocol through Hex Safe, our institutional-grade custody platform.
Babylon Genesis introduces an innovative approach to Bitcoin staking—eliminating the need for bridges, wrapped BTC, or smart contracts. Instead, staking is achieved natively and securely on the Bitcoin network. Here’s how it works:
Beginning with the Babylon Genesis Token Generation Event for the BABY token in April 2025, Phase-2 introduces new functionality that allows Hex Safe users to stake BTC directly from custody—without bridging or moving assets off the Bitcoin network—by delegating to Hex Trust as an Institutional Finality Provider. This marks a significant milestone in unlocking native Bitcoin staking for institutions.

These features are now fully accessible through Hex Safe’s institutional-grade interface, delivering seamless, secure access to the Babylon protocol’s staking ecosystem—all within Hex Trust’s regulated infrastructure.
