  • Saturn Credit

    Participated · Seed · May 2026

    Saturn Credit is building a Bitcoin-compatible digital credit protocol and stablecoin system slated to launch in March 2026. The protocol is reported to be built on Strategy's STRC. It uses a dual-token design: USDat, a non-interest-bearing stablecoin backed by tokenized U.S. Treasuries and permissioned to maintain a 1:1 peg with USDC, and sUSDat, an ERC-4626 interest-bearing vault that accumulates STRC dividends. sUSDat features an exit queue with a reported 3- to 7-day withdrawal period. The company raised $2 million in a seed round led by The Spartan Group with participation from Anchorage Digital and Susquehanna Crypto. No revenue, user metrics, or prior funding rounds were reported in the articles.

    Midas enables asset managers to convert institutional-grade investment strategies into regulatory-compliant tokens that offer transparency, liquidity, and composability across decentralized finance protocols. The company has developed Midas Staked Liquidity (MSL) to deploy dedicated staked liquidity that enables instant redemptions without affecting underlying yield or composability. Midas integrates with DeFi protocols such as Morpho and Pendle and provides technical documentation and live products through its platform. The company plans to expand into a broader range of institutional asset classes and deepen ecosystem integrations. Its recent funding round and prior seed raise have increased available capital to support continued product development and partnerships.

  • Arkade

    Participated · Seed · Mar 2026

    Ark Labs, based in Lugano, Switzerland, is building Arkade, an execution layer on the Bitcoin network designed to enable instant, programmable transactions and to support issuance, transfer, and settlement of stablecoins like USDT. The startup aims to allow developers and institutional users to construct payment and financial applications on Bitcoin by enabling more complex transaction logic than the base layer currently supports. Ark Labs announced a $5.2M seed round that brought its cumulative funding to $7.7M, with participation from Tether's investment arm, Sats Ventures, Contribution Capital, and Anchorage Digital. Funding will be used to expand the infrastructure and execution-layer capabilities of Arkade to improve efficiency for stablecoin operations on Bitcoin. The company has not disclosed commercial metrics such as revenue or user counts in the announcement. Ark Labs' product sits amid broader industry efforts to expand Bitcoin's utility beyond simple value transfer into payments and financial services.

  • Ark Labs

    Participated · Seed · Mar 2026

    Ark Labs is developing Arkade, an open, neutral execution layer that brings real-time, programmable operations—such as authorizations, holds, conditional terms, and escrow—to the Bitcoin network. Launched in October 2025, Arkade lets partners issue stablecoins, move digital assets, and settle payments natively on Bitcoin, supporting use cases in commerce, lending, and cross-network settlement. The platform is positioned to power autonomous commerce where AI agents transact under enforceable constraints. Ark Labs’ technology is aimed at fintechs, brokerages, asset managers, and payment companies seeking non-permissioned on-chain infrastructure. Headquartered in Lugano, Switzerland, the company has now secured more than $7.7 million in institutional backing. While revenue or user figures were not disclosed, the new capital will expand developer relations, product, and partner onboarding as Ark Labs scales stablecoin and Bitcoin liquidity at production levels. Its investor base includes prominent digital asset funds and industry operators, underscoring confidence in its vision for programmable finance on Bitcoin.
