O pozici
Alpen Labs is building the infrastructure layer that expands what Bitcoin can do. We’re building Alpen to become Bitcoin’s financial system, enabling users and institutions to access financial services directly on Bitcoin. Founded by MIT alumni and based in New York, the company focuses on advancing Bitcoin through innovations in zero-knowledge cryptography, scalable Layer 2 systems, and trust-minimized programmable infrastructure.
We believe Bitcoin is entering a new phase where developers, institutions, and financial systems will build directly on top of it. Alpen enables this by adding financial services, privacy, and usability layers to Bitcoin, making it practical to use as money at a global scale.
Our team includes engineers and researchers from organizations such as Blockstream, Palantir, and Nethermind, as well as contributors to major open-source cryptography and blockchain projects.
