What?

BOB is building the Gateway to Bitcoin DeFi, unlocking real utility for the world’s most important asset. By fusing Bitcoin’s unmatched security with Ethereum’s versatility, BOB creates the premier destination for Bitcoin DeFi liquidity, applications, and institutions.

BOB’s hybrid chain uniquely combines ZK proofs and BTC finality to create native bridges to both Ethereum and Bitcoin (BitVM). Its multichain gateway lets users swap Bitcoin into any asset or deposit directly into DeFi on any chain, powered by BTC intents. Novel Bitcoin vaults enable native BTC lending and savings accounts — together forming the foundational banking layer for Bitcoin.

With $230M+ TVL, 550K users, and tier-1 DeFi and institutional partners such as Uniswap, Anchorage, and Fireblocks, BOB has established itself as the leading hub for Bitcoin DeFi.

BOB has raised $25M from Castle Island, Coinbase, Ledger, IOSG, major BTC miners, and angels from Aave, Curve, GMX & more, as well as a community sale.
