Zurich-based Future Holdings AG (FUTURE) has raised CHF 28 million (approximately $34 million) in a funding round intended to support the development of its Bitcoin-focused financial platform.

The round was led by Fulgur Ventures, Nakamoto, and TOBAM, investment firms involved in both traditional finance and the Bitcoin ecosystem. 

FUTURE describes itself as a “Bitcoin Treasury Company” and says its business model is built around a Bitcoin-based balance sheet supporting its financial and advisory activities.

According to the company, the funds will be used to expand operations and strengthen its position in Europe’s growing Bitcoin and digital asset infrastructure sector.

FUTURE’s leadership team includes Chairman Richard Byworth, Managing Partner at Syz Capital and former CEO of Diginex, and CEO Sebastien Hess, a fintech entrepreneur who previously worked with Rocket Internet and Bitcoin mining startup Block Green. 

Other co-founders include Marc Syz (CEO of Syz Capital), Julian Liniger (CEO of Swiss Bitcoin app Relai), and Adam Back, the inventor of Hashcash and CEO of Blockstream.

“This round brings together leading venture investors who share our conviction in Bitcoin and in the strength of the team we’ve built at FUTURE,” said CEO Sebastien Hess. 

“Their commitment reflects confidence in our execution and our vision to build Europe’s premier Bitcoin treasury company — a trusted institutional gateway that connects Bitcoin with global capital through financial discipline, technology, and transparent governance.”

Chairman Richard Byworth noted that Switzerland’s macroeconomic environment supports the firm’s goals.

“The calibre of investors in this round, and the strong interest we’ve seen in a challenging environment, highlight the demand for a Swiss Bitcoin Treasury Company,” he said.

FUTURE reports that its business spans four main areas: Bitcoin treasury operations, institutional research and analytics, infrastructure and custody solutions, and advisory services. 

The company also intends to organize the Future Bitcoin Forum 2026 in Switzerland.

Vice-Chairman Marc Syz said the firm aims to build on Switzerland’s long-standing reputation for financial stability and innovation.

“Switzerland has a long tradition of financial innovation and trust. It’s time for the country to continue on that path and lead in Bitcoin by building institutional infrastructure that meets the highest global standards.”
