The newly established Citrea Foundation will oversee the growth and decentralized governance of Bitcoin’s application layer through research and grants. Oh, sure, because who doesn’t want to be part of a “decentralized governance” that’s probably just a bunch of guys in the Cayman Islands sipping rum and deciding the future of Bitcoin?
On March 2, 2026, the Citrea Foundation was introduced as an independent organization dedicated to supporting the evolution of programmable Bitcoin. Based in the Cayman Islands, the Foundation is led by a Board of Directors including Orkun Kilic and Murat Karademir, both co-founders of Chainway Labs. Because nothing says “independent” like being based in a place where the only thing more transparent than their tax laws is their commitment to decentralization.
The entity focuses on funding cryptographic research to build trustless Bitcoin bridges and managing grant programs to empower developers. By stewarding decentralization, the Foundation aims to lower adoption barriers and establish capital-efficient ways for the global community to engage with the Bitcoin economy. Because nothing says “capital-efficient” like a foundation that’s so decentralized, it’s probably run by a robot named Steve.
