Anchorage Digital Supports Pharos Network TGE With Institutional-Grade Infrastructure

Anchorage Digital, home to America’s first federally regulated crypto bank, today announced support for Pharos Network, an EVM-compatible Layer 1 network purpose-built for real-world assets (RWAs), beginning at token genesis. 

As part of Pharos’ upcoming token generation event (TGE), Anchorage Digital will support token minting, asset distribution, and custody for Pharos’ venture investors, providing regulated infrastructure at one of the most critical moments in the network’s lifecycle.

Institutional infrastructure at genesis

As institutional participation in token launches continues to mature, expectations around launch-day readiness are rising. Institutions increasingly seek to engage at genesis, but only when assets can be minted, distributed, and secured within familiar regulatory, risk, and operational frameworks.

By supporting the Pharos Network’ TGE end-to-end, Anchorage Digital helps bridge the gap between protocol innovation and institutional participation, bringing regulated infrastructure to token minting, distribution, and long-term custody from day one.

‍Supporting an RWA-focused ethereum scaling network

Pharos Network is building an EVM-compatible Layer 1 designed to support real-world asset issuance and onchain financial activity at scale. As RWAs continue to move onchain, infrastructure requirements around custody, compliance, and operational control become increasingly critical, particularly for early stakeholders and long-term ecosystem participants.

Real-world asset networks are designed with long-term participation in mind. Ensuring these assets are minted and distributed within regulated, proven infrastructure from the outset helps reduce operational risk and sets a stronger foundation for ecosystem growth as usage scales.

Anchorage Digital’s involvement at launch ensures that Pharos’ early supporters and institutional stakeholders can participate with confidence, without compromising on security or governance.

A Regulated Partner for Protocols at Launch and Beyond

“Our mission is to support protocols at their earliest stages and provide the institutional rails they need to scale responsibly. Pharos is building critical infrastructure for the next phase of onchain finance, and we’re proud to support their TGE with regulated minting, distribution, and custody from day one.”— Nathan McCauley, Co-Founder and CEO, Anchorage Digital

“Launching a network focused on real-world assets requires infrastructure that institutions already trust. Anchorage Digital gives us the ability to execute our TGE with the operational rigor, security, and regulatory alignment our investors expect, while allowing the Pharos ecosystem to scale from day one.”— Wish Longer, Pharos Network

Anchorage Digital’s support for the Pharos Network TGE reflects a broader commitment to serving protocols and institutions across the full lifecycle of digital assets, from genesis through growth and beyond. By delivering secure, regulated infrastructure at launch, Anchorage Digital enables institutions to participate in emerging networks while maintaining the operational rigor they require.
