Overview

Greg Hamilton Stevens is Founder and Chairman of Dark Fusion Technologies and Co-Founder of Orobit.ai, where he is building the next generation of Bitcoin-native financial infrastructure. His work focuses on programmable finance, digital asset issuance, settlement, and tokenization: institutional-grade systems that operate directly on the Bitcoin network.

A supporter of Bitcoin since 2011, he has built his career around identifying transformative technology trends before they reach the mainstream. From pioneering esports and digital gaming businesses to developing blockchain infrastructure, his focus has stayed on the technologies reshaping global markets and financial systems.

Early life

Born and raised in South Africa, Greg developed an entrepreneurial mindset early. His career has since taken him across several continents, including significant time in Australia and the United States, where he built technology companies while gaining experience in capital markets and emerging technologies.

He is currently completing a Master of Business Administration, deepening his work in business strategy, finance, and innovation.

Career

Greg is a serial entrepreneur whose career spans technology, capital markets, gaming, and blockchain innovation. As Founder and CEO of Stream Play, a publicly listed esports company in which he was the majority shareholder, he led the build-out of mobile and esports gaming products that reached more than 100 million gamers worldwide, culminating in a $150 million exit volume.

After becoming a Bitcoin supporter in 2011, he turned toward decentralized technologies and the future of financial infrastructure. Through Dark Fusion Technologies he leads development of Orobit.ai and the Simple Contract Language (SCL) Protocol, a Bitcoin meta-protocol built to enable deterministic smart contracts, programmable settlement, and real-world asset tokenization. It requires no additional blockchains and no compromise to Bitcoin’s security model.

Orobit.ai bridges traditional financial systems with Bitcoin-native infrastructure, letting institutions issue, settle, and manage programmable digital assets directly on Bitcoin. The aim is to expand what Bitcoin can carry while preserving the decentralization, security, and sovereign ownership that have defined the network since its inception.

Philosophy

Greg believes the strongest technology platforms are built on security, transparency, and simplicity. His approach combines entrepreneurial execution with long-term infrastructure thinking, favouring solutions that answer real institutional problems while staying faithful to Bitcoin’s core design principles.

Financial infrastructure where trusted settlement, programmable assets, and sovereign ownership converge, opening new markets without sacrificing decentralization.
