Fireblocks Expands Crypto Custody Services to Sony’s Soneium Blockchain

EMBARGO: Feb 12, 9 AM HK TIME

Fireblocks, a leading provider of crypto custody solutions, has announced the addition of support for Soneium, an Ethereum layer-2 blockchain developed by Sony in collaboration with Startale Labs. This strategic move paves the way for institutions to securely manage digital assets on the emerging blockchain, which seeks to bridge the gap between Web2 and the growing Web3 ecosystem.

Fireblocks counts a range of major institutions, including top banks, as clients. The company’s custody services are integral to the adoption of digital assets by institutional players, offering secure storage solutions that protect their investments. Hedge funds, family offices, and other large capital allocators often require these services to meet insurance and regulatory requirements.

Launched in January 2025, Soneium currently holds $33.6 million in total value locked (TVL) and is built on Optimism’s OP Stack. It is designed to support applications in gaming, entertainment, and finance. Through this new integration, Fireblocks will enable its clients to store and manage assets on Soneium, supporting the network’s mission of fostering a decentralized and open internet.

“We are committed to helping Soneium realize its vision of creating a seamless and open Web3 experience,” said Omer Amsel, Fireblocks’ Head of Web3. “This collaboration will bring secure and decentralized digital ownership to users while maintaining the integrity and security needed for innovation in the digital space.”
