October 7 — According to Chainwire, Bitcoin Life Insurance Company Meanwhile announced the completion of a $82 million funding round to meet the growing demand from individual and institutional clients for inflation-resistant savings, retirement, and insurance products.
This round of financing was led by top global investment firms Bain Capital Crypto and Haun Ventures, with participation from Pantera Capital, as well as other contributors including Apollo, Northwestern Mutual Future Ventures, and Stillmark. The funds will be used to further promote Bitcoin-denominated life insurance, annuities, savings, and insurance bond products through institutional partners, helping global policyholders combat inflation and currency devaluation risks.
Meanwhile is regulated by the Bermuda Monetary Authority, a leading global financial regulatory body, providing savings and protection products priced in Bitcoin, integrating the world’s leading “store of value” asset into the traditional insurance framework for the first time.
With a surge in demand from individuals and businesses for Bitcoin-denominated savings and corporate financial management products, Meanwhile's Bitcoin assets under management (BTC AUM) have achieved over 200% growth.
Innovative Products and Market Position
Meanwhile's products combine the security and predictable returns of traditional life insurance and annuities with the scarcity and anti-inflation characteristics of Bitcoin, providing global policyholders with new tools to combat inflation, engage in long-term financial planning, and facilitate intergenerational wealth transfer.
This round of financing brings Meanwhile's total funding to $122 million by 2025, following a $40 million Series A round earlier this year led by Framework Ventures and Fulgur Ventures. Investors in this round include both crypto-native institutions and traditional financial giants, reflecting that Bitcoin is increasingly becoming the underlying asset foundation of mainstream financial products.
Meanwhile's Industry Breakthrough
Meanwhile is entering the next phase at the intersection of Bitcoin and the insurance capital markets, with innovations including:
• The world's first life insurance company priced in Bitcoin;
• Bermuda's first long-term insurance license, setting a precedent for global regulation;
• The world's first audited Bitcoin financial statements, establishing trust and transparency;
• The world's first Bitcoin life insurance product system, transforming an industry that accounts for about 3% of global GDP;
• Generating Bitcoin returns through robust lending and private credit, becoming one of the largest long-term BTC lenders globally (with lending periods exceeding 6 months).
Meanwhile CEO Zac Townsend stated, “Life insurance companies have always been long-term capital providers that drive stability in financial markets. We aim to bring this role into the Bitcoin space—helping families save and preserve value in BTC while providing institutions with new revenue channels and compliant financial products linked to Bitcoin. This financing allows us to scale our successful model and partner with global collaborators for further expansion.”
He added, “Bitcoin needs more than just short-term speculation; it requires long-term financial solutions supported by real economic activity. Meanwhile offers Bitcoin-denominated savings and protection products, enabling families and institutions to achieve sustainable returns while preserving value. We have operated as a licensed, well-regulated insurance institution since our inception, meeting the highest global standards for solvency and reserves.”
Haun Ventures partner Chris Ahn remarked:
“Our core belief is that the Bitcoin economy needs more than just trading platforms and DATs; it needs the foundational building blocks of capital markets. Just as the U.S. economy is built on insurance, pensions, and mortgages, the Bitcoin economy also requires its own long-term financial products. Meanwhile is a pioneer in this field, and we believe it will spark a new wave of innovation in the Bitcoin-denominated market.”
Bain Capital Crypto partner Stefan Cohen added:
“Meanwhile is building simple, compliant, and sustainable Bitcoin financial products that allow both individuals and institutions to use Bitcoin more practically. We are excited to support the team in scaling and collaborating with traditional insurers to bring Bitcoin-linked savings and retirement products to market in a secure, global manner with institutional-grade standards.”
