Peer-to-peer, open-network finance holds the promise to change the world for the benefit of all. Blockstream is proud to be making this a reality. Our Services An Open Financial System, on Bitcoin The Liquid Network is a Bitcoin layer-2 enabling the issuance of security tokens and other digital assets. Execute trustless swaps using non-custodial orderbooks and protect your financial privacy through confidential transactions. In a hyperbitcoinized future, having financial products and services on Bitcoin layer-2 is the only way to achieve the same trust minimization in centralized financial actors that bitcoin has achieved for central banks. Our CEO and co-founder, Dr. Adam Back, invented the algorithm that Bitcoin mining is based on, proof of work (cited in the Bitcoin whitepaper). Blockstream Mining provides enterprise-class Bitcoin mining services to institutions and investors around the world. Our mining services reduces risk and lower the barriers to entry, making it easier for you or your business to participate in Bitcoin’s proof of work, improving the network’s decentralization. ABOUT DR. ADAM BACK Co-founder and CEO of Blockstream, Dr. Adam Back, invented Hashcash, the proof-of-work algorithm cited by Satoshi Nakamoto in the Bitcoin whitepaper, as the future basis for its mining function. Throughout his twodecade-long vocation as an applied cryptographer and security architect, he has held senior roles with a number of technology companies, including Microsoft, EMC, PI, VMware, and Zero-Knowledge Systems, as well as advised many more companies on cryptography and peer-to-peer finance. Dr. Adam Back holds a computer science Ph.D. in distributed systems from the University of Exeter. A new frontier for Bitcoin mining investments The Blockstream Mining Note (BMN) provides qualified investors with access to Bitcoin hashrate at our enterprise-grade facilities. Normally, Bitcoin mining involves high-risk investments in specialized hardware and facilities. The BMN lowers the barriers to entry for qualified investors, providing exposure to Bitcoin mining through a simple token purchase. By securitizing hashrate on the Liquid Network, investors can adjust their exposure to Bitcoin mining based on market conditions by trading the BMN tokens on the secondary market. Your mining investment is in safe hands. Blockstream’s highly-optimized and secure facilities are already trusted by some of the Bitcoin industry’s leading institutions for their mining colocation needs. Finance Monthly FinTech Awards 2023.
