Based on Bitcoin, built for the long run. Blockrise is a Bitcoin-only platform that offers custody, brokerage, asset management, legacy planning and lending.
@blockrise is proud to announce that @jos_lazet, CEO of Blockrise, has been invited to speak at @BtcCorpDay in Prague on 10 June.
Bitcoin Corporate Day is an invitation-only gathering of executives, institutional investors, and Bitcoin thought leaders and CEOs, CFOs, investors, and bankers tracking Bitcoin's impact on corporate finance, capital strategy, and global markets.
Jos leads Blockrise's mission to give individuals, corporations, and institutions a secure and transparent way to hold and manage Bitcoin for the long term.
The Blockrise team will be on the floor at BTC Prague from 11 to 13 June.
Blockrise spent last weekend in Belgium together.
The first five months of 2026 were full of delivery, and the team has been working hard. As a fast-growing company, we also know how important team building is.
May alone was packed with releases: Cloud Recovery to protect the safety of Blockrise clients' wallets, the bunq integration going fully operational, and the product and engineering team getting onboarding down to under ten minutes.
Month after month, the team has shipped: from product releases, platform improvements, to conference stages, and more.
The right way to celebrate? A full weekend of team activities, good food, and good drinks.
Cheers to the team.

The July 1 deadline is almost here. Unauthorised platforms in the EU will be subject to enforcement.
Blockrise holds Bitcoin for clients under a MiCAR authorisation, inside the European framework.
For people in Europe, Bitcoin is what you hold and the euro is how you measure it. Both now sit under one clear set of EU rules.
@DerEinspruch Other than all the legal and financial protection under MiCAR (such as segregated entities and 12 months availability of the software/hardware after bankruptcy), there will be disaster recovery: pre-signed UTXOs to an external address!
Introducing Cloud Recovery, a way to keep your Blockrise account recoverable without writing down the Blockrise Seed by hand.
The Blockrise Seed is generated on your device, encrypted, and stored in your own iCloud or Google Drive. The matching encryption key sits separately at Blockrise, in encrypted form. Recovery needs both halves.
Switch to a new phone, your Blockrise account is restored in under 10 seconds.

Arnhem Bitcoin City turned 12, and @SatoshiRadioPod celebrated!
Last Thursday, 70 bitcoiners gathered outside at the Foodhall in Arnhem for the Satoshi Radio meet-up.
Hosted by @bslagter, @pesla , @Bart_Mol & Mike Lelieveld made possible by Blockrise.
Topics ranged from macro developments to the long-term future of Bitcoin.
The Foodhall in Arnhem took care of the food and drinks and yes, you could pay in bitcoin.
First round was on @jos_lazet & @blockrise
The bitcoin moving out of ETFs in april is showing up in cold storage wallets.
That is not distribution, that is investors graduating from the wrapper to the asset.

That's +40% in 3.3 years, or ~10.6%/yr.
For comparison:
Eurozone ‘official’ inflation: +13% total / ~3.2%/yr
Bitcoin ‘monetary’ inflation: +4% total / ~1.2%/yr

For years, banks closed accounts at the sight of Bitcoin. Today every Blockrise client gets an IBAN in their own name.
First Dutch Bitcoin platform with full bank accounts. First on bunq's new BaaS.
@jos_lazet has been nominated for Most Impactful Person at the @DutchBlockWeek🏆
@blockrise is built on the conviction that Bitcoin should be accessible without compromising what makes it valuable. Building a team that takes both sides of that equation seriously, the integrity and the accessibility, takes a certain kind of leader.
@jos_lazet, as CEO and founder, shapes culture with intention, holds the bar high, and makes the mission feel real to the people carrying it forward.
That work started in 2017, when he founded Blockrise to help people access their Bitcoin. Eight years later, that is still the work.
Congratulations from the whole Blockrise team. #Bitcoin #DutchBlockchainWeek #Blockrise
@MadBitcoin_2026, what an event!
The @blockrise team was on the ground in Madrid as Partner to the Madrid Bitcoin Summit @MadBitcoin_ What made it count: real conversations with institutional clients, live onboarding sessions at the stand, and CEO Jos Lazet joining the panel and sitting down with Spanish media.
Now it is time to take the lessons from Madrid and channeling them into what comes next: @BTCPrague.
Blockrise is ready for you!
Thank you Madrid and see you in Prague!
Sixteen years ago today, Laszlo Hanyecz paid 10,000 Bitcoin for two pizzas.
It was the first real-world Bitcoin transaction. Those 10,000 Bitcoin are worth over $1 billion today.
Happy Bitcoin Pizza Day! #BitcoinPizzaDay#Bitcoin
