16 years ago, Bitcoin set the foundation for the onchain revolution, inspiring DeFi, stablecoins, and the tokenization movement. Yet today, BTC sits idle and its ecosystem remains dormant.

Lombard exists to change this. Over the past year, we proved demand for BTC onchain. LBTC, Bitcoin's leading liquid-staking token, brought over $2 billion net-new liquidity onchain, and was adopted by leading DeFi protocols, catalyzing a new wave of Bitcoin developer adoption.

Our vision is clear: be the driving force for Bitcoin onchain, just as Circle and Tether were for stablecoins. We aren’t just building the infrastructure, we’re creating the liquidity flywheels, distribution engines, and onboarding mechanisms that power industry-wide growth.

The Lombard team was assembled from leaders at Polychain, Coinbase, Ripple, Maple, Argent and bring deep expertise across crypto, finance, and engineering — united by the belief that a permissionless Bitcoin economy isn’t just possible, it’s necessary.
