This raise lets us build on what\u2019s working and expand it with partners around the world.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Bitcoin needs more than short-term speculation. It requires dependable, long-duration solutions backed by real economic activity. Meanwhile delivers bitcoin-denominated savings and protection that families and institutions can rely on while generating sustainable yield through conservative private credit and long-term lending to high-quality counterparties. Built for trust from day one, Meanwhile operates as a licensed, prudentially regulated carrier, meeting solvency and reserve standards on par with the world\u2019s most established insurers.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cAt Haun Ventures, our thesis is that the Bitcoin economy needs more than trading platforms and DATs\u2014it needs the core building blocks of capital markets. Just as the U.S. economy was built on insurance, pensions, and mortgages, the Bitcoin economy will require its own long-duration financial products. Meanwhile is the first mover in this category, and we believe it will unlock a new wave of innovation across Bitcoin-denominated markets,\u201d said Chris Ahn, Partner at Haun Ventures.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cMeanwhile is building simple, compliant, and lasting products that make Bitcoin practical for both people and institutions,\u201d said Stefan Cohen, Partner at Bain Capital Crypto. \u201cWe\u2019re excited to back the team as they scale and work with established insurers to bring bitcoin-linked savings and retirement products to market\u2014safely, at institutional grade, and globally.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>About Meanwhile Incorporated<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile\u2019s mission is to enable anyone, anywhere to save, protect, and build wealth across generations.
