Thesis*

Thesis* is a venture studio and innovation lab dedicated to creating Bitcoin-centric financial products, protocols, and startups.

Founded by Matt Luongo, the company focuses on user sovereignty, privacy, and decentralized finance (DeFi) within the Web3 and Bitcoin ecosystems. Thesis* operates a studio model that nurtures ideas from inception to independence, aiming to replace traditional financial intermediaries with systems built on Bitcoin's principles. The company develops a range of Bitcoin-focused products and projects, including Fold, a neobank that allows users to save, spend, and earn Bitcoin. Thesis* also engages in rapid innovation events, such as "Jot," where cross-functional teams quickly develop and validate product ideas. Their services include ideation, customer validation, prototyping, and ecosystem building, along with educational content on Bitcoin and finance. Through these efforts, Thesis* supports the growth of a decentralized financial landscape.
