Figment Expands into Middle East, Amidst Rising Institutional Demand for Digital Assets

LONDON, June 30, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Figment, the leading independent provider of institutional staking infrastructure, is deepening its presence in the Middle East as digital asset adoption accelerates across the region. 

As part of this expansion, Figment has appointed Christoph Richter as its first Head of Business Development in the Middle East and announced a key partnership with UAE-based custody provider Tungsten, a trusted name in institutional digital asset services. This collaboration leverages Tungsten’s well-established industry position and existing licensing within the Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM), enabling them to offer enhanced, non-custodial staking options to clients via Figment’s infrastructure. 

The move marks a major step in expanding compliant staking access across the UAE and the broader MENA region and Christoph will be Figment’s first on-the-ground hire in the region.

“Staking can be understood as earning the risk-free rate on proof-of-stake networks like ETH and SOL,” said Christoph Richter. “With inflation beating rewards and rising institutional digital asset allocations, staking is becoming a core strategy – and the MENA region is ready.”

A Strategic Regional Push

Figment’s formal entry into the region is driven by growing demand for compliant, reward-generating solutions aligned with long-term digital asset investment strategies.

“The Middle East is uniquely positioned to benefit from institutional staking,” said Eva Lawrence, Figment’s Head of EMEA & Regional MD. “With Christoph’s deep background in traditional finance and digital assets, he’s perfectly placed to lead our growth in this high-potential market.”

Christoph will lead business development and strategic partnerships, reporting to Eva Lawrence, the Head of EMEA. He brings nearly two decades of traditional finance (TradFi) derivatives experience, including senior roles at JP Morgan, Barclays, BNP Paribas, and UBS. In his most recent TradFi role, he led derivative solutions for Southern Europe and DACH at MUFG. Since entering the digital asset industry in 2017, he has advised top-tier firms and co-founded the proprietary BTC and ETH trading venture Vol Capital, building market neutral quantitative investment strategies.

Christoph brings a wealth of experience of working on major infrastructure Public Private Partnerships transactions across the Middle East, particularly in Saudi, building strong ties to the region’s major players and capital markets. Now based in the UAE and fluent in five languages, he brings a truly global perspective to Figment’s regional growth.

Continued Global Investment, Local Leadership

This move builds on Figment’s global expansion across EMEA, the Americas, and APAC, reflecting increased institutional demand for secure and regulatory-aligned staking solutions and cementing Figment’s leadership as the most trusted institutional staking provider. Christoph’s appointment and the partnership with Tungsten underscore Figment’s commitment to investing in local leadership and strategic infrastructure tailored to the needs of the region.

Elliptic’s ‘Data Fabric’ transforms access to digital asset data and intelligence with Industry’s first ‘data as a service’ (DaaS) model

‘Elliptic Data Fabric’ enables customers to embed data directly into their own data lakes, workflows and AI models for real-time digital asset decisioning

LONDON, June 27, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Elliptic, the global leader in digital asset decisioning, has announced an industry first, offering direct access to its market-leading datasets and intelligence, ‘Elliptic Data Fabric,’ via subscription. 

As the digital asset industry undergoes exponential growth, traditional SaaS solutions delivered through apps or API feeds are no longer meeting the needs of all our customers — particularly when it comes to managing risk exposure, intelligence operations, and compliance requirements. To address this, ‘Elliptic Data Fabric’ offers customers the ability to ingest and subscribe to data streams directly, enabling access to Elliptic’s data and intelligence in the format, schema, and delivery method that best meets their specific needs. Elliptic’s data and intelligence feeds the customer’s internal data lakes, customized workflows and AI models — accelerating decision-making, modernizing connectivity and letting enterprises and agencies directly query the data, run internal analytics and compose leaner data workflows.

The challenge facing governments, exchanges, crypto businesses and banks is today twofold.  Firstly, increased adoption of digital assets is marked by transaction growth, increased asset issuing, faster innovation and expanding multi-chain activity. Whilst at the same time, threat actors no longer operate in isolation — sanctioned entities, fraudsters, and money launderers blur together using new technologies to obfuscate their interconnected webs of illicit activity at a much faster pace than seen before. These challenges require the digital asset ecosystem to find new approaches to compliance obligations and criminal investigations.

“Elliptic Data Fabric gives us high-fidelity, richly structured blockchain intelligence that fits directly into how we work. The data is normalized across chains, it’s flexible enough to deploy in our own environment. It enables us to build threat models, connect actors, and get ahead of behavior, not just react to it. As illicit actors become more sophisticated, we’re asking more complex questions than ever before — and now we have the data to actually answer them, fast.” Program Manager, US central government.

Elliptic Data Fabric has use cases for multiple industries which are actively in the market today including:

Elliptic Blocklist is a direct plug-in data and intelligence subscription service that provides access to Elliptic’s continuously updated list of sanctioned and high-risk entities.  Used by exchanges, stablecoin issuers, and payments providers, the Blocklist is regularly updated with the latest intelligence. This enables customers to directly query data to either permit or block withdrawals to unhosted wallets without adding friction to the transaction flow.  When milliseconds matter, blocklist ingestion gives a crucial first line of defence, ensuring users can safely and efficiently send funds. Screening is then carried out for compliance and reporting purposes.

Elliptic made a free version of its Blocklist available globally to the crypto community during the Bybit exploit. This was instrumental in helping the ecosystem, whether customers or otherwise, easily identify DPRK funds from the exploit, reduce risk of exposure to them, and help in some cases to freeze those funds.

Elliptic Counterparty Risk is being used by banks and financial institutions to help them easily assess indirect digital asset risk stemming from their customers by enriching their fiat transaction screening workflows with custom intelligence on thousands of VASPs. By seamlessly integrating Elliptic’s VASP data into internal screening workflows, organizations uncover hidden risks by detecting when customers interact with high-risk or unregistered crypto platforms. Customers are also optimizing their operatioal efficiencies by automating risk assessments and reducing manual investigations into crypto-related fiat transactions.

Government agencies are already leveraging Elliptic Data Fabric to access operation-ready blockchain data and intelligence, seamlessly integrated into their environments, mission-specific use cases, and analyst workflows. The data is pre-structured into actionable formats — such as value transfer events (VTEs) and actor clusters — and is immediately queryable across Elliptic’s 54 supported blockchains.

Because this data is ingested directly within the agency’s secure infrastructure, it remains completely air-gapped, ensuring no vendor visibility into sensitive mission-related queries. This enables agencies to confidently use and share the data in investigations and effectively collaborate with other departments, supporting the multi-agency nature of investigative operations such as the USSS take down of Garantex.

“As the digital asset industry evolves, we recognize that traditional solutions need to mature in order to adequately support the internal investigation and analytics requirements of organizations striving to meet compliance obligations and government agencies to meet their mission objectives. Modern data and intelligence platforms must be adaptable, providing solutions in all formats — apps, APIs, and, as we’re announcing today with ‘Elliptic Data Fabric’, through subscriptions to data and intelligence. Many of our enterprise and government customers run sophisticated, large-scale internal analytics programs that require direct access to our trusted data and insights to power their operations. As the industry continues to evolve, Elliptic’s platform is built to stay flexible, ensuring it delivers the dynamic solutions needed in today’s fast-moving market,” commented Jackson Hull, CTO Elliptic.

About Elliptic

Elliptic is the leader in digital asset decisioning, we have built the most comprehensive platform for efficiently extracting crypto data and intelligence across blockchains with the greatest accuracy.

Our platform’s unrivalled uptime, scalability, depth and breadth of our data and intelligence means exacting organizations choose Elliptic for their compliance, risk management, intelligence operations and blockchain infrastructure needs.

Founded in 2013, Elliptic is headquartered in London with offices in New York, Washington D.C., Dubai, Singapore and Tokyo. To learn more, visit www.elliptic.co and follow us on LinkedIn and X.
