Bison, a company owned by the Stuttgart Stock Exchange, has announced the launch of a new Ethereum (ETH) staking insurance service, allowing investors to protect their assets against various risks. The initiative was made possible through a partnership with the international insurance company Munich Re and Staking Facilities, a company specializing in staking services.

Risk Protection and Opportunities for Investors

Bison’s new offering covers a range of risks associated with staking Ethereum on the platform. Investors can insure against operational errors, technical failures, fraud, as well as «slashing»—a situation where validators are penalized for improper actions, which can lead to the loss of a portion of staked assets. The minimum stake available on the platform is just 0.005 ETH (around $12), making the service accessible to a wide range of users who can earn rewards for staking.

Insurance Coverage Provided by Munich Re

The insurance coverage is provided by Munich Re, one of the world’s largest insurance companies, specializing in risk management related to digital assets and blockchain technology. Bison emphasized that the partnership with Munich Re ensures clients can be confident in the reliability and security of their investments. The insurance covers all major risks that may arise during staking, offering additional protection and enhancing the appeal of the service.

Additionally, in March, Germany’s largest stock exchange, Deutsche Börse, launched its own cryptocurrency spot trading platform aimed at institutional clients, indicating the growing interest in digital assets among traditional financial institutions.
