+About

Mirko is a pioneer in the digital asset landscape, researching Proof-of-Stake networks and yield-bearing assets since 2013. His expertise is rooted in hands-on operational experience; while managing a Bitcoin mining operation in Southeast Asia, he witnessed the high barriers to entry inherent in Proof-of-Work consensus.

Recognizing that Staking offered a more inclusive path for contributing to financial infrastructure, he founded Staking Rewards. Today, as the world’s leading data provider for the staking economy, Mirko leads a team of 15 professionals dedicated to bridging the gap between complex protocol mechanics and institutional capital. His mission is to democratize access to digital yield, providing financial institutions with the transparent, safe data required to participate in the future of decentralized finance.
