Polychain Capital has led a $16 million seed round for Lombard, a Bitcoin restaking protocol. Lombard is excited to bring the trend of restaking to Bitcoin, which is a significant development in decentralized finance. The funding round saw participation from several other investors, including Babylon Chain, DAO Five, FTI Global, Foresight Ventures, Mirana, 0xMantleEco Fund, Nomad Capital, and OKX Ventures. Lombard plans to use the funds to kick-start the Bitcoin restaking ecosystem. Once a user stakes Bitcoin via Babylon, Lombard issues a liquid and yield-bearing representation of staked Bitcoin using the token LBTC to unlock liquidity.
