Bitcoin Organisations
Foundations, policy bodies, industry associations, and community organisations advancing Bitcoin globally. A directory of the institutional Bitcoin ecosystem.
Why This Directory Exists
Bitcoin's institutional maturation depends on a distributed network of credible organisations — foundations, policy bodies, and industry associations — working across jurisdictions to establish clarity, legitimacy, and governance standards.
The House of Bitcoin maintains this directory as a public resource, linking to organisations whose work we consider substantive and whose focus is Bitcoin specifically, rather than the broader digital asset industry. We believe that the Bitcoin ecosystem benefits from visible, interconnected institutional presence.
Listing here does not imply endorsement of every position held by a listed organisation, nor does it imply any commercial relationship. This directory is curated on the basis of quality and relevance.

Is Your Organisation Missing?
This directory is actively maintained and expanded. If you represent a Bitcoin-focused foundation, policy body, or industry association that is not listed, we welcome outreach. Listing criteria are: exclusive or primary focus on Bitcoin (not crypto broadly), substantive public activity, and verifiable institutional presence.
We also welcome reciprocal links from listed organisations. Our goal is a densely connected, high-quality institutional Bitcoin web.

The House of Bitcoin may add, remove, or amend listings at its discretion, based on the continued relevance and quality of the listed organisation's work. This is not a paid directory.
