BOB’s $9.5M Funding Surge Supercharges Bitcoin DeFi Infrastructure Buildout
Bitcoin's DeFi ecosystem just got a turbocharge—BOB, the cross-chain liquidity project, hauled in another $9.5M to cement its position as BTC’s missing infrastructure layer. Forget ‘wrapped’ bandaids—this is about native yield on the OG crypto.
Why TradFi should sweat: BOB’s hybrid approach (part bridge, part smart contract platform) lets Bitcoiners finally deploy their dormant stacks without begging centralized custodians for permission. The Series A haul suggests VCs now see BTC DeFi as the next nine-zero play.
The cynical take: Wall Street’s still trying to tokenize T-bills while builders are busy turning Satoshi’s creation into a yield engine. Somewhere, a Goldman Sachs MD just spilled his $28 cold brew.
