Building the world's most trusted financial institution
Our mission at River
I founded River in 2019 to build the bitcoin bank of the world.
Bitcoin is becoming the world's dominant reserve asset. As it does, it creates a new foundation for financial institutions built on sound money with trust at their core.
River is that institution.
We're building the world's most trusted financial institution with bitcoin at its core to accelerate the return to sound money.
— Alex Leishman, Founder, CEO & CTO at River
