BitcoinOS (BOS) has raised $10 million to expand its institutional Bitcoin finance tools and developer protocol.
The round was led by Greenfield Capital, with participation from FalconX, DNA Fund, Bitcoin Frontier Fund and a group of angel investors including Anchorage Digital CEO Nathan McCauley and Spartan Group’s Lior Groen, BOS announced via email on Tuesday.
BOS aims to turn Bitcoin into a programmable base layer for digital economies. The company made headlines after verifying the first zero-knowledge (ZK) proof on the Bitcoin mainnet, a milestone that enables programmability without altering the core protocol.
The project is part of the Bitcoin decentralized finance (BTCFi) sector, which has emerged over the past few years to enable the deep wells of liquidity present in BTC to finance utility elsewhere in the digital asset ecosystem.
BeOS plans to use the funds to enhance its developer and institutional infrastructure, including Grail Pro, a BTC yield protocol that is now in pilot with custodians. The project also supports trustless bridging to other blockchain networks like Ethereum and Cardano.
Greenfield Capital’s Jascha Samadi called the breakthrough “a fundamental shift in blockchain infrastructure”, arguing that BeOS is turning Bitcoin into the secure foundation for the broader digital asset economy.
