About Galoy

At Galoy, we build Bitcoin-native core banking software for regulated financial institutions. Our platform enables banks and financial organizations to offer Bitcoin-backed lending, payments, stablecoins, and exchange, either as a primary core system or integrated with their existing infrastructure.

We maintain several open source components that power key parts of the platform, while other modules remain proprietary. Our flagship product is Lana, a Bitcoin-backed lending platform designed specifically for institutional clients.
