El Salvador, the first country in the world to adopt Bitcoin as legal tender, is strengthening its position as a hub for digital finance with the rapid growth of NexBridge, a company pioneering regulated Bitcoin-native capital markets.
Founded in El Salvador with the mission of bridging traditional finance and Bitcoin, NexBridge has made significant progress in just two years. The company launched USTBL, the first public, regulated U.S. Treasury-backed digital asset issued on Bitcoin’s Liquid Network, reaching $30 million in issuance. It also secured an A rating from Particula and closed a successful Series A funding round to scale operations.
NexBridge’s team has expanded from just one member to 29 professionals and continues to grow, with new hiring underway. To mark its second anniversary, the company hosted a team-building offsite event, celebrating achievements and setting the stage for future milestones.
Looking ahead, NexBridge plans to expand its offerings with an OTC Desk launch and new centralized exchange (CEX) listings, further integrating traditional assets with Bitcoin infrastructure.
By building regulated and trusted blockchain-native markets, NexBridge is helping El Salvador solidify its role as a leader in digital assets, Bitcoin innovation, and financial modernization.
