Theya is building the UBS for #Bitcoin and is aiming to simplify Bitcoin self-custody. Join us as we chat with Smeet Bhatt, co-founder of Theya (https://theya.us/), a startup simplifying Bitcoin self-custody through easy-to-use multisig wallets. Smeet shares how his background in trading and tech startups led him to Bitcoin and inspired him to start Theya. Ushering in the next wave of #selfcustody and #bitcoinadoption. Not your keys, not your coins. And all of that good stuff.

We're hanging and talkin' bout:

- Getting into Y Combinator's Winter 2023 batch as one of the only Bitcoin-native companies ever funded by YC

- How Theya is tailoring its multisig wallet specifically for affluent households holding 0.1-1 #btc

- Their goal of becoming "the UBS of Bitcoin" and add future products like #lightningnetwork implementations, #lending, and #investing - Launching their private beta and rolling out to early users over the next months before a full public launch

- Open-sourcing parts of their wallet architecture for transparency- How they differ from competitors like Unchained Capital by focusing on smaller BTC holders

- Raising funds and getting support from top VCs despite the bear marketFounders like Smeet are building key infrastructure to simplify Bitcoin self-custody for the next wave of users. Stay tuned for their public launch!
