Our latest video walks you through our new Claude skill for setting up a Lightning node.

Get started with building on bitcoin for agentic (and human) payments in a matter of minutes.

AI moves fast and so does Lightning! ⚡

Bitcoin had the discipline to stay focused on what matters. ETH decided to add everything but the kitchen sink to the blockchain. It's much easier to say yes to every shiny new thing than it is to focus.

L402 is the standard for agentic commerce on Lightning. A machine-scale protocol built for the AI economy.

In this video, we show how agents can use L402 to pay for API access. No intermediaries, no logins, just bitcoin-native authentication. And no humans required. 🤖

LN is a small miracle of decentralization and the irony is that before it launched it was seen as a centralizing force. The paradox of decentralization is also that if you do it right you are making a platform someone else can come along and build some centralized thing on top of

@arbitrum Nothing says "decentralized" quite like freezing the funds

📢 LND v0.21.0 rc1 is ready for testing.

Basic Onion Messaging support lands in this release, along with the Payments store migrating to native SQL. Production Simple Taproot channels are also finalized.

Sometimes LN nodes lose all their state or have some other problem and they need to invoke the SCB process where they use a backup file to ask their peers to force close and get their funds back. One way we could improve it is an option to just cooperatively restore the channels.

Bitcoin is an agent's best friend. With L402 SDK, agents can discover an API, pay 1 sat on Lightning, and get access. All from a single prompt.

Devs, vibe coders, and agents are building the AI economy with Lightning. You can too. ⚡

Lightning Terminal is a web dashboard for managing Lightning nodes at scale. Automatically manage routing fees and channel opens. Visualize routing data. Monitor your node from anywhere.

We just shipped passkey support for device-based auth and persistent sessions. Authenticate once. Stay logged in across page reloads. No passwords needed.

Connect your node and build the future with bitcoin. https://t.co/ZwdQUa7kTM

Agents want money. Bitcoin makes it possible. And now it works with agent-native workflows. Today we're releasing L402 SDK as part of our suite of AI tools, a client SDK for agentic payments on Lightning with L402.

Embeds directly into library-based agent frameworks. TypeScript and Python bindings. Works with Vercel AI SDK and LangChain.

📖 Import a library instead of using a CLI
🛡️ Per-request, hourly, daily, and per-domain budget controls
🌐 WASM for browsers, serverless functions, edge environments

Start building the agent economy with machine-scale payments on Lightning.

Bitcoin is an agent's best friend. Now your OpenClaw can have a budget and start paying for things. 💸

Learn how to have your OpenClaw quickly spin up a Lightning node with @hmichellerose. It's the first step to giving agents economic agency. 🤖

@kurtwuckertjr Woah, haven't looked at the BSV price in ages, it looks like its cracking 10 USD at some point. When is Greg Wrigth picking up work on it again?

[Alex Bosworth @alexbosworth]

LLM vibe coding in BTC can be a double edged sword in a lot of ways. It can make it easy to add a lot of new interesting features super quickly, but every feature also potentially has security implications you need to think about and LLMs are increasingly good at finding exploits

Running a Lightning node in production means managing configs, upgrades, secrets, and scaling. Helm charts package all of that into a single deployable unit on Kubernetes. One command to install, one file to customize.

Today we're releasing the LND Helm chart, which we use to run our own bitcoin infrastructure. Production-ready defaults, available on GitHub Container Registry.

Aperture is a payment gateway for your app. Per-request access with no signup required. The perfect model for agents that need to discover and pay for services on the fly. Powered by Lightning. ⚡

Aperture now includes a built-in MCP server so vibe coders can spin up paid services managed by agents and supports the Machine Payments Protocol (MPP by @tempo @stripe) alongside L402 agentic payments.

The AI + bitcoin convergence is happening. Start building. https://t.co/IU08JLPxI9

Static Loop In is a good way to eliminate some of those spare UTXOs you have laying around and consolidate your funds into your channels. The flow is pretty easy, just spend the entire UTXO into the address it shows you and then "Loop In". Poof the balance appears in your channel

402 Index launched just five days ago, and the response frankly has been overwhelming. The paid endpoint dev community is on fire 🔥🔥

We smashed through 16k total endpoints, 6k verified endpoints, and 250 verified providers. We're adding 100+ verified endpoints per day! 🤯
