This round of financing was led by top global investment firms Bain Capital Crypto and Haun Ventures, with participation from Pantera Capital and other investors including Apollo, Northwestern Mutual Future Ventures, and Stillmark.
Meanwhile will use the funds from this round to further expand the global accessibility of Bitcoin-denominated life insurance, annuities, savings, and insurance bonds through institutional partners, providing policyholders worldwide with protection against inflation and currency devaluation risks.
Meanwhile is regulated by the Bermuda Monetary Authority, a leading global financial regulatory body, offering savings and protection products denominated in Bitcoin (BTC). Bitcoin, as the leading global store of value asset, is becoming the core of Meanwhile's product system.
Driven by the surge in demand from individuals and institutions for Bitcoin-denominated savings and corporate financial products, Meanwhile's assets under management (AUM) in Bitcoin have increased by over 200% year-on-year.
Meanwhile's innovative products combine the safety and predictable returns of traditional life insurance and annuities, while introducing Bitcoin as a scarce and inflation-resistant long-term store of value, providing global policyholders with powerful tools for long-term financial planning, inflation hedging, and wealth security inheritance.
The completion of this round of financing further reflects the trend of Bitcoin becoming a mainstream financial product's underlying asset. Meanwhile, this financing also brings the total funding raised by Meanwhile to $122 million by 2025. Earlier this year, Meanwhile completed a $40 million Series A financing round led by Framework Ventures and Fulgur Ventures.
Meanwhile is entering the next phase of its development, with its innovative achievements reshaping the insurance and Bitcoin capital markets:
The world's first Bitcoin-denominated life insurance company;
The first long-term insurance license approved in Bermuda, setting a global precedent;
The first audited Bitcoin financial statements, establishing standards for trust and transparency;
The world's first Bitcoin life insurance product, reshaping an industry that accounts for about 3% of global GDP;
Earning Bitcoin returns through robust lending and private credit, becoming one of the largest long-term BTC lenders globally (with terms exceeding 6 months).
Meanwhile's CEO Zac Townsend stated:
"Life insurance companies have always been long-term, stable capital providers driving the financial markets. We are bringing this role into the Bitcoin world—helping families save and protect wealth in BTC while providing institutions with new revenue streams and compliant, scalable Bitcoin-indexed products. This round of financing will allow us to expand our validated model and collaborate with global partners to grow the market."
He added that Bitcoin needs not just short-term speculation, but reliable, long-term solutions backed by real economic activity. Meanwhile is providing Bitcoin-denominated savings and protection products, offering families and institutions stable returns while creating sustainable returns through robust private credit and long-term lending. As a regulated insurance company, Meanwhile has been centered on trust since its inception, strictly adhering to the highest global standards for solvency and reserves.
Haun Ventures partner Chris Ahn stated:
"Our investment logic is that the Bitcoin economy needs not just trading platforms or DATs, but also the foundational components of capital markets. Just as the U.S. economy is built on insurance, pensions, and mortgage systems, the Bitcoin economy also needs its own long-term financial products. Meanwhile is a pioneer in this field, and we believe it will spark a new wave of innovation in the Bitcoin-denominated market."
Bain Capital Crypto partner Stefan Cohen stated:
"Meanwhile is building simple, compliant, and sustainable products that make Bitcoin more practical for individuals and institutions. We are excited to support the team's expansion and collaborate with established insurance institutions to launch compliant, secure, institutional-grade Bitcoin savings and retirement products globally."
