BitcoinOS Demystified: Unleashing the Power of Crypto, Financial Freedom and AI With CEO Edan Yago

Edan Yago is CEO and Co-founder of BitcoinOS, the smart contract operating system for Bitcoin. He recently joined the Bitcoin.com News Podcast to talk about the technology. Yago shares his visionary insights on how Bitcoin is set to achieve in two years what Ethereum has accomplished in a decade. He discusses how BOS will unleash the creativity of entrepreneurs and dApp developers, facilitate the launch of ICOs in the short term, and integrate trillions of AI agents into the crypto ecosystem in the long run.

Edan is also an early core contributor to Sovryn, a decentralized Layer 2 Bitcoin trading and lending and asset management platform. Earlier in his career, he founded several other companies in the Bitcoin and crypto space, including CementDAO and Epiphyte, which provided global remittance services. As an anti-finance financier and radical optimist, he is a passionate advocate for the mass adoption of open, borderless and incorruptible finance.

BitcoinOS is the operating system that brings smart contract functionality to Bitcoin. With the introduction of BitSNARK and Grail, BitcoinOS enables trustless and interoperable rollup bridges, connecting Bitcoin’s mainnet to general-purpose execution environments without altering the core protocol. This extension allows developers to unlock Bitcoin’s potential for high-throughput, secure transactions while preserving the network’s decentralization, resilience, and purity. The BitSNARK Verification Protocol is now open-source to bring further understanding and experimentation to Bitcoin, ensuring everyone gets to benefit from Bitcoin’s original promise.
