Let's Keep Track of the Exchanges, Neobanks, and Wallets That Support Lightning Network
The Lightning Network (LN) is a structure of payment channels open between private individuals and/or companies, representing a significant scaling solution for Bitcoin. Often referred to as Bitcoin's Second Layer, the Lightning Network allows for hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of transactions per second, enabling near-instantaneous global payments.
The Lightning Network embodies a true peer-to-peer (P2P) network, aligning with the vision outlined in Satoshi Nakamoto's Bitcoin whitepaper. While the Base (Settlement) Layer of Bitcoin operates more like a broadcast system, with transaction finality ensured by miners through the blockchain, the Lightning Network offers a decentralized and scalable alternative.
With new companies like Lightspark, founded by David Marcus (former co-creator of Diem and former president of PayPal), already onboarding major players like Coinbase, Nubank, and Xapo, we can expect many more exchanges, neobanks, and wallets to follow suit.
