BitcoinOS startup raises $10 million from investors to expand its institutional BTCFi solutions
BitcoinOS (BOS), a platform focused on developing decentralized finance infrastructure based on Bitcoin (BTC), has completed a $10 million funding round. The funds are being used to scale tools for institutional investors and developers, as well as to develop protocols that ensure the programmability of the Bitcoin network without changes to the source code.
This round was led by venture capital firm Greenfield Capital. FalconX, DNA Fund, Bitcoin Frontier Fund, and a number of private investors participated, including Anchorage Digital CEO Nathan McColley and Spartan Group CEO Lior Groen. According to project representatives, the funds raised will accelerate the implementation of institutional solutions and support partner integrations.
The BitcoinOS developers aim to transform Bitcoin into the foundational layer for the digital economy, ensuring programmability and interoperability with other networks. The project previously gained notoriety after conducting the first-ever zero-knowledge proof (ZK-proof) verification on the Bitcoin mainnet. This event opened the door to the creation of complex financial instruments based on BTC without the need to change the protocol.
The investment will be used to develop products for the institutional sector. This includes the Grail Pro infrastructure—a Bitcoin yield protocol that is already undergoing pilot testing with custodial providers. The project is also developing cross-chain bridges for interaction with the Ethereum and Cardano ecosystems, while maintaining decentralization and security principles. Greenfield Capital co-founder Yasha Samadi called BOS technology a “fundamental shift in blockchain architecture.” According to him, the company's solution transforms Bitcoin into a secure and flexible foundation for digital finance, removing barriers between BTC liquidity and other assets.
