BadgerDAO builds infrastructure and products to integrate Bitcoin into decentralized finance (DeFi).

Launched in September 2020, BadgerDAO was founded by Chris Spadafora, with contributions from Ameer Rosic, Albert Castellana, and Alberto Cevallos. This team recognized Bitcoin’s untapped potential as prime collateral in the nascent DeFi ecosystem. Their insight established a community-driven framework leveraging Bitcoin’s value in diverse financial applications.
BadgerDAO serves Bitcoin holders seeking yield from assets in DeFi, and developers expanding the Bitcoin-DeFi interface. Its long-term vision cultivates a robust, open ecosystem significantly enhancing Bitcoin’s utility and integration across decentralized finance. It strives to broaden Bitcoin's capabilities within the global financial system.
