Recruitment of "Satoshi Lab" Genesis Ecosystem Partners: Co-creating a New Era for the Bitcoin Ecosystem

Bitcoin, as an elder statesman in the world of blockchain, has seen remarkable developments since its inception. On October 31, 2008, Satoshi Nakamoto published a groundbreaking paper titled "Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System." On January 3, 2009, the first Bitcoin genesis block was created. After more than ten years of development, Bitcoin has grown into a digital asset with a market value of hundreds of billions of dollars, gaining widespread recognition in global mainstream markets.

In the past, Bitcoin faced skepticism for its limited applicability, but it is exciting to note that in recent months, the Bitcoin ecosystem has experienced a resurgence. This revival has been particularly driven by innovations such as the Ordinals protocol, which has introduced unique features to the Bitcoin network, including inscriptions, Brc20 tokens, BTC NFTs, and more. These developments have rekindled interest in the Bitcoin ecosystem.

This is a special time as we celebrate the 15th anniversary of the Bitcoin whitepaper. On the eve of a potential global Bitcoin ecosystem boom, Satoshi Lab has emerged, calling upon Bitcoin builders from around the world to join this wave and collaboratively shape the future of the Bitcoin ecosystem.

Satoshi Lab is a laboratory jointly initiated by Web3Labs and Waterdrip Capital, focusing on research and development within the Bitcoin ecosystem. In the future, Satoshi Lab will place a strong emphasis on areas such as Ordinals, BTClayer2, Lightning Network, RGB, and Nostr, covering in-depth industry research, project incubation, knowledge dissemination, and organizing relevant theme conferences. The mission of Satoshi Lab is to drive global development within the Bitcoin ecosystem, with its headquarters based in Hong Kong, extending its influence to the global Bitcoin community.

At the inception of Satoshi Lab, we sincerely invite venture capitalists, project founders, the Bitcoin community, media representatives, developer communities, and other individuals who are optimistic about the Bitcoin ecosystem to join us as founding ecosystem partners.

1. Support from top-tier investors' funding: Satoshi Lab plans to establish a Bitcoin ecosystem special purpose vehicle (SPV) fund to provide early-stage financing to accelerate projects.

2. Comprehensive innovation and technology services: Satoshi Lab will offer qualified projects all-in-one support, leveraging the advantages of innovation hubs such as the Cyberport and Hangzhou-Hong Kong Science and Technology Building to help projects successfully expand internationally.

3. Regular invitations for industry experts: Satoshi Lab will regularly invite industry experts, including Bitcoin core developers, founders, and partners from investment firms, for closed-door discussions, providing professional guidance to accelerate projects.

4. Networking with outstanding members of the Bitcoin ecosystem: You will have the opportunity to connect with exceptional individuals within the Bitcoin ecosystem, helping project teams find suitable partners and developers, and building a strong team.

If you are an investment institution, by joining Satoshi Lab, you will receive:

1. Co-building with projects: Participate in joint investments and early-stage investments in future Bitcoin special purpose vehicle (SPV) funds.

2. Access to the Satoshi Lab ecosystem partner network.

3. Investment institutions will act as mentors and be regularly invited to provide insights and guidance on the Bitcoin ecosystem, aiding the acceleration and consultation of Satoshi Lab's projects.

4. Invitations to participate as judges in Bitcoin ecosystem project Demo Days and hackathon series.

If you are a Bitcoin technical expert, by joining Satoshi Lab, you will receive:

1. Participation in Satoshi Lab's series of online and offline technical discussion events.

2. Collaborative publication of Bitcoin ecosystem research reports.

3. Sharing in the future development benefits of ecosystem projects.

As part of the future plan, Satoshi Lab will organize 1-2 accelerator programs each year to provide acceleration and incubation support for new projects and hold immersive entrepreneurial Hacker House events to help founders solve real-world business challenges. In addition, participants in Satoshi Lab's event series will benefit from substantial support from various investment institutions, project founders, public blockchain communities, university blockchain entrepreneurship clubs, global KOLs, and developer communities, all of which will contribute to greater project promotion and exposure.

On the eve of a new chapter in the Bitcoin ecosystem, the "Genesis Ecosystem Partner Recruitment Program" is about to launch.

  • Crypto-Friendly Bank Erebor Seeks $1.5B Funding with a16z Participation

    On August 11, Erebor Bank, a crypto-friendly bank co-founded by Oculus and Anduril founder Palmer Luckey and Palantir co-founder Joe Lonsdale, is seeking $1.5 billion in funding, with a pre-money valuation target of $8 billion. This valuation is nearly double the $435 million valuation the company had when it completed a $350 million funding round in December 2025. Erebor has already received support from investment institutions such as 8VC and Haun Ventures, and the new funding round is expected to attract participation from Lux Capital, Andreessen Horowitz (a16z), Human Capital, Valor Equity Partners, and SV Angel, among others. As AI infrastructure investment enters a phase of rapid expansion, Erebor is targeting the financing needs of AI companies. AI companies require substantial capital to purchase GPUs, build data centers, and secure energy supplies, while traditional financial institutions are gradually exploring financing models for AI infrastructure assets. However, whether Erebor can maintain rapid growth after the AI and crypto industry cycles cool down remains a key focus for the market. The funding round has not yet been finalized and is expected to be completed within the coming weeks.

  • Vitalik Updates Ethereum Roadmap: Privacy, Post-Quantum Scaling, and Native Rollups Become New Priorities

    On August 10, Vitalik Buterin stated that he had compared the 2023 Ethereum roadmap with the current Strawmap. The overall direction still overlaps considerably, but some priorities and technical paths have been clearly adjusted, including raising the priority of quantum safety, downweighting VDF and some EVM improvements, and replacing old designs with solutions such as a unified binary tree, PBT, and new state types. He noted that the most notable change in the current Strawmap is the emergence of several new topics not included in the 2023 roadmap, reflecting a shift in Ethereum's R&D focus. These new priorities include: stronger native privacy support, aggressive scaling in a post-quantum context, specification streamlining for formal verification, Blob and Gas futures, native Rollups, and a more open design space for the future shape of the EVM. Vitalik also emphasized that Ethereum's scaling approach is shifting from 'expanding all activities comprehensively' to 'designing more scalable dedicated mechanisms for specific high-load scenarios,' and he regards STARK proofs and AI-accelerated formal verification as important foundations for the protocol's future. Overall, this update shows that the Ethereum roadmap is evolving toward quantum safety, privacy-first, censorship resistance, high performance, and simpler protocol design.
