About

Erebor is a nationally chartered digital bank built for AI, defense, crypto, and deep-tech companies — filling the void left by Silicon Valley Bank's 2023 collapse. Co-founded by Palmer Luckey (Anduril, Oculus) and Joe Lonsdale in 2025, Erebor received OCC conditional approval in October 2025 and began operating in February 2026 after receiving FDIC insurance and a full national bank charter. The bank offers stablecoin integration, crypto-collateralized loans, and traditional banking services via API, with specialized underwriting for AI hardware, robotics, and defense contractors. It raised $350M at a $4.35B valuation and is headquartered in Columbus, Ohio.
