We’re a growing, vibrant community of codes, researchers and makers. Early Bitcoiners and DeFi natives.

With the second batch of Kusama crowdloans starting in September, we’re looking for early Polkadot & Kusama followers & spokespeople, DeFi natives and anyone who is passionate about changing the centralized status quo.

About Interlay & interBTC

At Interlay, we envision a future where blockchains seamlessly connect and interact: anyone can use any digital asset on any blockchain, trustless and without limitations.

Our flagship product is interBTC — Bitcoin on any blockchain. A 1:1 Bitcoin-backed asset, fully collateralized, interoperable, and censorship-resistant, realizing the true free nature of BTC and decentralized finance. Hosted on Polkadot & Kusama, interBTC will be available on all major DeFi platforms, incl. Ethereum and Cosmos.

We live decentralization and transparency. We’re 100% remote and all our code is open source. We’re not anonymous — we stand by our product. Our projects are community-owned and backed by top-tier scientific papers. Founded by ex-Imperial College PhDs, we collaborate with leading research labs and tech companies around the world.
