Announcing Wavelength, the easiest way to integrate bitcoin for agents and humans. 〰️⚡

With a simple non-custodial API, anyone can integrate Lightning into their app and get instant, high volume, low fee transactions. Machines can pay machines. Humans can pay humans. Anywhere.

The future of agentic money is ours to build.

@stephanlivera @LuganoPlanB @bitschmidty @knutsvanholm @roy_breez @_benkaufman @MoritzKaminski @bitgould @cultured Heading to Lugano! See you there. Going to talk about L402 from @lightning

[Graham Krizek @gkrizek]

People working across borders should be able to keep more of what they earn.

@HiglobeOfficial is using @voltage_cloud to add Lightning payments for professionals receiving money from the U.S.

This is the kind of practical problem I want us solving with Bitcoin.

LIGHTNING LABS URGES SECURITY UPDATES

New releases from @lightning for lnd and other tools block trust in compromised certificate keys. Operators must replace binaries or rebuild; updating Go alone does not patch installed software.

🚨

due to CVE-2026-111943 (eMudhra CA compromise: ⓸㆕), we strongly recommend all lnd/btcd/tapd/litd users to either update to the release binaries below, or re-build their binaries with Go 1.27.3:
* lnd: https://t.co/nASK8lSYdU
* tapd: https://t.co/EgsAOpiqPS
* btcd: https://t.co/5hGvEAI6Mg

[Bobby Shell 🇺🇸 @iBobbyShell]

Building a payment feature should start with a working payment. 🤝

Too often, it starts with infrastructure setup, scattered documentation, and translating examples into your app.
We’re building Voltage to shorten the distance from an idea to a Lightning payment you can verify. 🧵

[Voltage ⚡ @voltage_cloud]

Build Lightning payments with the AI tools you already use.

Our Agent Pack gives Claude Code, Codex & Cursor the Voltage API context to build invoices, checkout & webhooks.

Describe the flow. Test a payment. We handle the Lightning infrastructure.

Tool 1/24: Lightning Agent Tools by @lightning

Lightning Labs' 7 open-source agent skills plus an MCP server: run a node, pay L402 APIs and host your own paid endpoints.

A solid starting point if you want an agent that earns and spends sats ⚡

Soap has added Lightning payments through Voltage.

Merchants can now offer Lightning in Soap's checkout while Voltage handles the infrastructure behind the experience.

A practical path for payment platforms to add an open payment rail.

[Filip Michalsky @FilipMichalsky]

We’ve added Lightning payments through @voltage_Cloud, giving @paywithsoap merchants a simpler way to offer Lightning-enabled checkout without building the infrastructure themselves.

LayerTree from @roasbeef can be fully implemented with just these general-purpose opcodes, with rather good performance.

OP_TX is not needed in the CCV tier.

[Ryan Gentry @RyanTheGentry]

If ya don’t know, now ya know, bitcoiner!

So excited to see this released. Congrats to the team at @lightning for continuing to push the envelope and enable self-custodial bitcoin transactions for all!

💥 NEW: Lightning Labs Unveils Layertree: Millions Could Share One Bitcoin Output

> Lightning Labs CTO Olaoluwa Osuntokun published a 103-page paper on the design

> One shared output holds everyone's funds, tracked in a Merkle-sum tree off-chain

> Anyone can exit alone in one transaction, the operator cannot block it or seize funds

> Joining in a group of about 1,000 costs less than 1 virtual byte per member

> The catch: it needs Bitcoin opcodes that are proposed but not yet activated

Ciao a tutti!

Se ve lo foste persi, sabato è uscito l'undicesimo numero de Il Gazzettino Cypherpunk!

In questa puntata parliamo delle prime grant per sviluppatori impegnati in attività di red-teaming. Parliamo anche di due nuovi L2 presentati questa settimana, Zark e LayerTree.

[bitcoin++ Insider Edition @btcinsider__]

NEW: Olaoluwa Osuntokun (@roasbeef) launches LayerTree, a new, Merkle-tree based scaling proposal for bitcoin

It requires a suite of opcode additions to Bitcoin which would make tx introspection and Merkle sums feasible

[Bitfinex @bitfinex]

One Bitcoin output, shared by many users. Each can exit independently in a single transaction.
LayerTree explores a new approach to scaling Bitcoin.

We've supported Lightning since the beginning. Credit to the team for the open research.

⚡️Lightning Labs presentó LayerTree, solución de escalabilidad de bitcoin:native en la que un UTXO podría ser compartido por 1 millón de usuarios.

👉Más detalles: https://t.co/kcP54BpqOr

[The Block @TheBlockCo]

THE BLOCK: Lightning Labs introduced LayerTree, a proposed Bitcoin $BTC scaling solution designed to let up to 1 million users share a single UTXO.

The non-custodial design connects to Lightning but requires Bitcoin protocol changes before deployment.
