The CubeSigner WaaS “lets users request signatures through revocable signing sessions instead of giving direct access to raw keys,” according to Cubist’s press release.

The announcement also confirms that CubeSigner is in production as a key manager for Ethereum validators, expanding its accessibility to teams working on diverse applications such as wallets, consumer loyalty programs, games, trading and custody platforms, and more, across almost any chain.
CubeSigner currently supports Secp256k1, Ed25519, BLS, and Stark curve signing, and Cubist says its product can be readily extended to support new signature schemes.
The project’s website highlights CubeSigner’s “hot wallet speed” in addition to its “cold wallet security”, and already includes companies such as Ankr, Ava Labs and Everstake as part of its clientele.
