Wesatoshis Labs: Building the first decentralized Bitcoin card

Breaking Boundaries with Bitcoin Utility. Without the Middlemen.

 

Wesatoshis Labs is bringing a bold new vision to life: a decentralized Bitcoin card that cuts out tech monopolies like Apple and Google and brings Bitcoin back to its roots; open, sovereign, and unstoppable.

 

By leveraging Rootstock and pushing toward full decentralization with innovations like BitVMX, Wesatoshis Labs is creating an alternative to today’s closed financial infrastructure. Their Bitcoin-native card will let users spend, interact, and live on Bitcoin,  without ever compromising on privacy or self-custody.

 

Meet the builders: Moti Joseph & Yossi Yossef

Wesatoshis Labs was co-founded by Moti Joseph and Yossi Yossef, two crypto-native developers and decentralization advocates operating fully on-chain.

 

They describe themselves as builders of the Bitcoin DeFi underground, and their mission is simple: “Separate Bitcoin from the evil.”

What Is Wesatoshis Labs building?

At a time when most crypto cards rely on centralized infrastructure, Wesatoshis Labs is creating the first fully decentralized Bitcoin card built on Rootstock.

 

This isn’t just another fintech product. It’s a:

  • Bitcoin-native solution for daily payments
  • Decentralized card that avoids Apple Pay or Google Pay integrations
  • Protocol that gives users control, anonymity, and direct BTC settlement

Who is it for?

Bitcoiners, DeFi users, and anyone tired of the Web2 gatekeepers.

 

The project is currently in initial sales, with early adoption helping to fund further development and premium upgrades.

 

Why did Wesatoshis choose Rootstock?

According to the team, Rootstock was the obvious choice:

    • The most secure Bitcoin Layer 2
    • EVM compatibility for easier development
    • Support for full decentralization, including BitVMX
  • Community of Bitcoin-first builders

 

Wesatoshis aren’t just building a product, they’re building a movement. And Rootstock gives them the rails, vision, and community to do it.

 

Their journey into the Collective

“Rootstock Collective helped us go from idea to traction with real people backing our vision.”

 

Wesatoshis Labs first engaged with RootstockCollective through the grants program. Once they saw how the wider ecosystem could amplify traction and support their mission, joining the Collective was a no-brainer.

 

“Being part of the DAO means being part of the cyberpunk future of Bitcoin DeFi.”

 

Through the DAO, they received:

  • Funding for development and launch support
  • Feedback and product testing from DAO contributors
  • Ideas and signal from Rootstock community members

 

They’ve also formed early-stage collaborations with other builders.

 

What’s next for Wesatoshis?

The future is all about refinement, reach, and luxury.

 

Upcoming milestones include:

  • A premium ‘luxury’ edition of the Wesatoshis Card
  • Wider access and onboarding for Bitcoin-first users
  • Further decentralization through BitVMX integrations

 

Wesatoshis Labs is bringing Bitcoin utility to life,  not by compromising with centralized rails, but by building its own.

 

With RootstockCollective, they’re turning bold ideas into reality.
