About Trust Machines

Trust Machines is a startup that operates in the Bitcoin network, aiming to maximize the value of Bitcoin through the development of a vast ecosystem of Bitcoin applications. The company is not limited to any specific Bitcoin layer, currently utilizing Stacks, Lightning, and DLCs, and is open to exploring other tools. The team at Trust Machines comprises engineers, builders, researchers, and operators, all working towards the common goal of expanding the Bitcoin economy.

The company believes that by harnessing the potential of Bitcoin layers, they can help Bitcoin reach a billion users. Bitcoin layers allow for the scaling of Bitcoin transactions and the addition of new functionalities, such as privacy and new use cases. This makes Bitcoin the secure settlement foundation for a future web. Trust Machines is tapping into the $400B of BTC capital that is largely idle, representing a massive untapped market for new decentralized apps.

Trust Machines is developing a range of end-user products aimed at mainstream users, including a Bitcoin web wallet and BTC lending apps. They are also contributing to the necessary underlying infrastructure for Bitcoin and Bitcoin layers. The company's products and technologies aim to leverage Bitcoin's value as a decentralized final settlement layer for a wide range of use cases. By using Bitcoin layers, they can unlock the secure, trustless benefits of the original blockchain without limiting the innovative potential of decentralized applications.

In summary, Trust Machines is a Bitcoin-focused startup that develops applications and infrastructure to maximize the value and potential of the Bitcoin network.
