About button
In December 2025, Button closed a $5.1M seed round led by Blockchain Capital, with participation from Coinbase, Auros, FalconX, etc., positioning itself as a Bitcoin prime brokerage built on Hyperliquid, aiming to turn BTC into yield-bearing, borrowable on-chain collateral.
In April 2026, Button's Vault went live, introducing on-chain BTC-backed credit and strategy execution, entering closed beta; the team had previously established risk and collateral standards. These milestones mark its shift from funding to live product operation, advancing Bitcoin from passive holding to active yield generation.
