"Life insurers have always provided stable, long-term capital to keep financial markets functioning," said Zac Townsend, CEO of Meanwhile. "We are bringing the same mission to Bitcoin – helping families save and protect their wealth in Bitcoin (BTC), while also providing new avenues for institutions to earn income and launching compliant and scalable Bitcoin index products. This funding enables us to build on our existing proven solutions and expand with our global partners."

Bitcoin needs more than short-term speculation. It requires reliable, long-term solutions backed by real economic activity. Meanwhile offers Bitcoin-denominated savings and protection that households and institutions can trust, while generating sustainable returns through conservative private credit and long-term lending to high-quality counterparties. Meanwhile, founded on trust from the outset, is a licensed and prudentially regulated insurance company with solvency and reserve standards comparable to the world's most established insurers.

"At Haun Ventures, our thesis is that the Bitcoin economy needs more than just exchanges and DATs; it needs the core building blocks of capital markets. Just as the U.S. economy was built on insurance, pensions, and mortgages, the Bitcoin economy needs its own long-term financial products. Meanwhile is a pioneer in this space, and we believe it will usher in a new wave of innovation in Bitcoin-denominated markets," said Chris Ahn, Partner at Haun Ventures. "Meanwhile is building simple, compliant, and durable products that make Bitcoin viable for individuals and institutions alike," said Stefan Cohen, Partner at Bain Capital Crypto. "We are excited to support the team as they scale and partner with leading insurance companies to bring Bitcoin-linked savings and retirement products to market securely, institutionally, and globally."
