The weight
behind Bitcoin
Qualified custody · audited quarterly
Ballast is the institutional Bitcoin treasury that turns idle BTC on the balance sheet into steady, fully collateralised yield.

by design
Collateralised lending, covered-call income and strict custody, run as one desk, so every coin on the books works without leaving cold storage.

Five plates under every coin
- Leadership
Ballast is run by former bank treasurers, market makers and Bitcoin core contributors who have moved size through every cycle.
- Custody
Multi-party cold storage across three jurisdictions. Every withdrawal needs a hardware quorum and clears a 24-hour time lock.
- Yield
Yield comes from fully collateralised lending and covered calls. We never lend a coin we can't recall inside a day.
- Capital
Issuance and buybacks are timed to raise Bitcoin per share when conditions favour holders, never to fund growth for its own sake.
- Clarity
Every holding is published on-chain and reconciled against our books at each block, so no one has to take our word for it.
Bitcoin is scarce by design
Twenty-one million coins on a fixed issuance schedule, with no central party able to print more or dilute holders.
Bitcoin settles without permission
Final settlement in minutes, any hour, any border, secured by the largest computing network ever built.
Bitcoin earns when it is managed
Held carefully, BTC can back short, overcollateralised loans and options income without ever leaving cold storage.
Bitcoin has institutional tailwinds
Spot funds, fair-value accounting and clearer custody rules keep moving corporate treasuries toward a Bitcoin reserve.
A public-markets vehicle that holds Bitcoin on behalf of its shareholders, giving them regulated exposure with institutional custody, audit and reporting.
Coins held on an exchange or in a wallet sit idle. Ballast keeps every coin in cold storage and earns fully collateralised yield on top, and 100% of that yield accrues to shareholders.
Spot funds track the price and charge a fee. Ballast aims to grow the amount of Bitcoin behind each share over time, through yield and well-timed capital markets activity.
Short-dated loans to vetted institutions, always overcollateralised, and covered-call options written against a portion of reserves. No leverage and no lending of coins we cannot recall within a day.
Every wallet we control is published, and our reserves are reconciled on-chain at each block. The live figures are on the treasury dashboard.
