About

We're a nimble, global team bringing open source software and bitcoin to banking.

We believe a financial system built on open source benefits all.

We're focused on bitcoin and core banking

Bitcoin is open source money that can benefit every person in the world. The banking system, however, is largely run on closed software. This motivates us to build a core banking platform that's both open source and bitcoin native.

Our mission is to bring banking into the Bitcoin Age.

We're working towards a vision where the global financial system runs on open source money and open source software.

A distributed team of builders

Our world-class engineers and business minds are hyper-focused on building software designed for enterprise scale deployments.
