Abu Dhabi-based Brevan Howard Digital announced on Monday that it has deployed $20 million in assets on Kinto, an Ethereum-based network, participating in the firm’s mining program.
This deployment positions Brevan Howard Digital as one of the first major financial firms to use digital assets within Kinto’s system.
Kinto: The Ethereum-Based On-Chain Portal for Institutional Investors
Kinto is an Ethereum-based on-chain financial portal designed to provide institutional investors with access to opportunities in DeFi.
The portal is built on a specialized blockchain and with a custom smart contract wallet.
Kinto allows financial institutions to deploy capital on-chain while meeting stringent legal and compliance requirements.
It is a Layer 2 network that integrates Know Your Customer (KYC) and Anti-Money Laundering (AML) protocols at the blockchain level, while also providing default wallet insurance and security features.
Brevan Howard Digital and Kinto’s Mining Program: How It Works
According to the announcement, one key reason for Brevan Howard Digital’s investment is Kinto’s mining program. This is designed to reward active participants who deposit assets on-chain.
The mining program distributes token emissions over a 10-year period, with rewards gradually decreasing over time. This model encourages long-term participation and liquidity within the network.
Mining programs have been gaining popularity within the DeFi space, but strict security, technical, and compliance requirements have limited participation from traditional financial institutions.
Brevan Howard Digital claims to be one of the first major financial firms to use digital assets to engage in such a program.
Kinto’s CEO and co-founder, Ramon Recuero, said he expects similar institutions to become more prominent within the ecosystem over the coming months.
“Institutions have been waiting for two things: regulatory clarity and compliance features. Now, through Kinto, financial institutions don’t need to wait any longer,” said Recuero.
Last year, defi-focused Layer 1 blockchain platform Berachain, announced it secured $100 million in a funding round led by Brevan Howard Digital and Framework Ventures.
Berachain was founded by anonymous developers Smokey the Bear, Homme Bera, and Dev Bear.
Brevan Howard Digital’s entry into Kinto shows that robust oversight and open blockchain protocols can work together more seamlessly than many expected.
This step isn’t just about short-term yields; it reflects a greater movement toward regulated yet transparent digital finance.
If you’ve been unsure about diving into Decentralized Finance (DeFi), this may offer enough real-world assurance to make a calculated move.
