Tether Launches USDT On Taproot Assets
Taproot assets have been out for some time; Lightning Labs rolled it out in July 2024, but the uptake has been less than stellar. Apart from Nostr assets, which have gone radio silent, I have yet to see anyone openly speaking about using the protocol. A protocol that allows you to create third-party assets as […]
Earn Fees As A Boltz Liquidity Provider
When it comes to the idea of earning a yield on your Bitcoin, one should always trend towards the side of caution; it’s been well documented that trying to lend out Bitcoin to earn a spread using a custodian ended pretty badly, with Billion Dollar businesses like Celsius, BlockFi and Voyager going tits up in […]
What Is ZapPlanner?
We all spend crazy amounts of time on the internet consuming content, reading articles, watching videos, listening to podcasts, diving into research papers and more.

The Issue With Stablecoins On Lightning
The Bitcoin Lightning Network (LN) has emerged as the most promising solution to Bitcoin’s scalability issues. It’s the only layer two offering unilateral exit and multiple implementations that anyone can run on their node without too much hassle. This peer-to-peer network enables faster and cheaper transactions, making it ideal for everyday micropayments. The Lightning Network lets any […]
What Is Nostr Wallet Connect?
As a modern internet user, we’ve become accustomed to certain user experiences, slick one-click logins, signing off payments perhaps with a 2FA for added security, and connecting our credit cards to applications for subscription payments, and this is the standard; no one will accept anything more complex. When sites and services are centralised, it’s easier […]
Beware Of Fake Bitcoin Wallets
Many of us find our way to Bitcoin with the idea that we’re going to make some money in this market, and without a doubt, there have been many success stories of people becoming Bitcoin millionaires.

How Do You Deal With Custodial LN Wallet Caps?
Lightning, the scaling solution for Bitcoin, promised fast and cheap transactions with a few trade-offs. Instead of providing the same UI as on-chain transactions, Lightning offers an entirely new ecosystem filled with its own technical competencies and learning curve. The many hurdles, like remaining online, managing liquidity and channel sizes, and more, have limited the […]
