NEW YORK, NY – Puffer, a restaking protocol, and Anchorage Digital, a digital asset bank, have announced a strategic partnership aimed at integrating institutional settlement infrastructure into Puffer UniFi. The collaboration intends to enhance the capabilities of Puffer UniFi, a protocol designed for restaking, by incorporating advanced settlement solutions tailored for institutional clients.
