SatLayer is building the economic layer for Bitcoin: Transforming BTC from sitting idle into a productive and programmable asset for DeFi, RWA, stablecoins and even TradFi.
SatLayer does this with the core innovation of restaking: fully programmable slashing. Unlike traditional staking implementations where the slashed collateral is burned, SatLayer allows the slashed Bitcoin to be programmatically redistributed.
With onchain and offchain based programmable slashing at its core, SatLayer is the link between Bitcoin and the rest of crypto (DeFi, RWA, stablecoins), as well as TradFi (insurance and yield for Bitcoin treasury companies).
We’re backed by leading investors including Hack VC, Castle Island Ventures, OKX Ventures, Mirana Ventures, and Franklin Templeton.

SatLayer is founded by serial entrepreneurs and former VC’s from MIT and Stanford. Together, we have decades of experience operating and investing, built 3+ teams, and operated across multiple cycles in crypto.
