1018: Coinbase Highlights Bitcoin Lightning Network’s Potential Disruption of the $150B Payments Industry!

Crypto exchange Coinbase says that the Bitcoin Lightning Network has the potential to disrupt the massive $150 billion payments industry. Lightning Network is a layer-2 scaling solution built on top of Bitcoin that aims to enable instant and cost-effective transactions for BTC. “Humble beginnings aside, the potential to turn crypto’s most valuable asset into a true medium of exchange has the power to bring greater financial inclusion to anyone with a smartphone. The ability to cost-effectively route fiat transactions over Lightning rails without users ever knowing they’re using Bitcoin can disrupt $150B+ a year industries. What Visa/Mastercard is for fiat currencies, Lightning can be for Bitcoin. The combination of a universally accessible payment network atop the world’s first open-source protocol for money can help Bitcoin evolve into a true global reserve currency.” Learn more about your ad choices.
