Colossus Digital is a blockchain technology provider based in Rome, Italy, that develops infrastructure to facilitate institutional investment in digital assets. The company was founded in 2022 by Gianni Pelosi, Andrea Calandruccio, and Lorenzo Barbantini Scanni. The founders bring a range of experience to the venture: Pelosi has over 29 years in the technology field, including roles as CEO and fundraiser; Calandruccio has 15 years of experience in quantitative investment strategies; and Barbantini Scanni is a serial entrepreneur and crypto angel investor since 2011.
The firm's core business revolves around providing regulated, institutional-grade services for the blockchain industry. This includes secure digital asset custody, custodial staking, and digital payment solutions. Colossus operates as a node validator on numerous Proof-of-Stake (PoS) blockchains, such as Ethereum, Cosmos, and Solana, among others. The company is regulated by the Organismo Agenti e Mediatori (OAM) in Italy, ensuring compliance and security for its clients.
Colossus has developed a proprietary platform named the Institutional Hub, which allows institutional clients to stake digital assets directly from their custody solutions. This bridges the gap between custodians and validators, enabling clients to generate yield while retaining control over their assets. The platform features multi-chain support for over 20 networks and integrates with leading custody technology providers like Fireblocks and Ledger Enterprise. A key feature is the "Transaction Lens" tool, which provides transparency and eliminates blind signing by allowing users to verify transaction details before approval.
