Key Takeaways
- Caliber has staked 75,000 LINK to support Chainlink node operations, marking its first direct involvement in Chainlink's infrastructure.
- Staking LINK aligns with Caliber's Digital Asset Treasury strategy, aiming for transparent exposure and yield for public equity investors.
Nasdaq-listed Caliber announced Thursday it has staked 75,000 LINK tokens with a Chainlink node operator, marking its direct involvement in the Chainlink Network’s core infrastructure.
The move is part of Caliber’s Digital Asset Treasury strategy aimed at supporting Chainlink’s growth by providing financial support to node operators, ensuring transaction validation on the network.
Caliber anticipates earning token-denominated yields from its staked LINK, enhancing both network strength and shareholder value. The entity also plans to stake more LINK in the future.
“This is Caliber committing capital to support the infrastructure that’s going to make the future of money work better,” said Chris Loeffler, Co-Founder and CEO of Caliber. “There is a high level of excitement about tokens, but we are committing in a way that can directly benefit our shareholders through yield and long-term appreciation.”
Launched in late August 2025, Caliber’s DAT prioritizes expanding its LINK holdings. Treasury funds sourced from a mix of credit arrangements, cash, and equity securities have been committed to acquiring LINK and keeping it for extended appreciation and staked returns.
According to Loeffler, Caliber’s direct LINK-staking approach gives the firm access to economic rewards that individual investors usually cannot capture. The firm believes it’s supporting a critical routing mechanism for the next era of global financial infrastructure.
“Our legacy in private equity for 16 years has been to find misunderstood opportunities, underwrite the cash flows, and then lean in early,” Loeffler noted. “In this case, we’re helping secure what we believe is the core routing layer for the modernization of global finance.”
