Maple was one of the few crypto lending platforms safe and robust enough to weather the storms of 2022 and the collapse of FTX. It’s now interesting to see a platform like Zodia Custody, with its bank and institutional affiliations, edging closer to crypto lending.

The Zodia Custody/ Maple Finance integration is targeted to go live by early Q3, the companies said in a statement.
