Bolt Labs is a Web3 wallet-as-a-service and cryptographic key-management infrastructure company that develops Lock-Keeper, a turnkey digital-asset security system for developers. Bolt Labs's Twitter Score is 9.9 out of 1000 as of July 2026, ranking #103,211 among 531,432 tracked accounts.
Bolt Labs was founded by J. Ayo Akinyele as CEO and co-founder. Lock-Keeper reached general availability as a flexible, policy-driven infrastructure layer that handles key generation, key sharding, and transaction signing inside AWS Nitro secure enclaves, combining that hardware-level isolation with Shamir's Secret Sharing and policy-based access controls. The system is designed to give developers a secure, private, and scalable path to managing digital-asset keys without building the underlying cryptographic infrastructure themselves.
Bolt Labs previously developed zkChannels, a chain-agnostic anonymous off-chain payment protocol built on multi-party computation and zero-knowledge techniques. The team brought zkChannels to the Tezos blockchain and had earlier designed payment flows for Bitcoin. Bolt Labs announced a seed round of $1.5 million led by Dekrypt Capital, and later closed an extended seed round at $4.3 million. A three-year, $9 million strategic partnership with Forte followed, focused on applying MPC and zero-knowledge technology to secure in-game cryptocurrency assets. Additional backers include the Zcash Foundation, Xpring, Vy Capital, Access Ventures, and Kilowatt Capital. Bolt Labs is also a member of the MPC Alliance.
Bolt Labs has remained publicly active, with its official blog publishing a Lock-Keeper article in March 2025 and its GitHub organization showing a repository update in February 2025. Bolt Labs has published 125 posts on the platform and has been mentioned by 6 accounts across 14 total mentions.
