Bitcoin Lightning-as-a-Service for the future of payments

The Lightning Network is enabling instant cost-effective payments on the most decentralized and secure monetary network: Bitcoin. It is the ability to send payments over a protocol, instantly and 1000x cheaper than Visa, without having to trust 3rd parties. Like sending an email over the internet. Innovation like this in payments doesn’t happen often. So, a race for businesses to leverage the ‘Internet of Money’ has started.
But, it’s not so simple to just “connect” to the Lightning Network. Its participants require some expertise in running infrastructure and providing liquidity (bitcoin) to the network. For a deeper dive into how the Lightning Network works, read here. Thankfully, there does exist a way for businesses to leverage a ‘Lightning Service Provider’ (much like an Internet Service Provider) to be a user of the network and reap its benefits, without having to manage the infrastructure.
Lightning-as-a-service (LaaS) allows businesses and users to leverage this technology immediately without technical expertise, time, or liquidity (bitcoin). Better yet, with LaaS providers such as Neutronpay, your business doesn’t even need to hold Bitcoin but can settle in local currency. Get integrated into the Lightning Network within days to weeks, instead of spending months trying to catch up.
Why integrate with the Lightning Network? Businesses connected to the ecosystem include Cash App and Coinbase, with a total of over 300 million users having access to Lightning, each able to convert or settle to their local currency. Besides adding a new payment option and product feature, Bitcoin and Lightning are a revenue-generator. Since 2021, Block (NYSE: SQ) added between $4.5 to $10 billion in revenue from Bitcoin each year, confirmed by the SEC.
So, it’s time to get serious about Bitcoin and Lightning. And, to move as fast as the pace of financial innovation happening, partner with Neutronpay to get the immediate benefits of Lightning, but also the inside scoop of future features coming to Lightning in the long-term.
