Unocoin, one of India’s leading bitcoin and crypto exchanges, has integrated the Lightning Network, a second-layer protocol for fast and low-cost bitcoin transactions.
The integration is powered by Voltage, a U.S.-based infrastructure provider known for its enterprise-grade Lightning solutions.
The move reinforces Unocoin's position as an innovative leader in India's bitcoin and crypto sector, despite regulatory challenges.
By adopting the Lightning Network, Unocoin aims to offer instant bitcoin settlements and future transfers of Tether (USDT) via the same network.
