For years, Bitcoiners pushed exchanges to adopt Lightning.
And guess what? It worked. Public Lightning volume is up 266% in about a year.
A few interesting insights from our new nostr:nprofile1qqsrtv3u6qkj6a09tnhr3l0wy67g9uw3t57ftqyqpvztpk3wmd6306s92qxwz report:
Our previous Lightning research in 2023 showed a 1212% increase in transactions.
Many of these were low value, as people experimented with new apps & business models.
Now, a new wave of bigger volume has come in, driven by exchanges.
We used the same methodology for our estimates as in 2023, but instead of having data on 52% of public capacity, we now got up to 79.4%

The Lightning industry continues to grow
Weโve updated our map, adding 46 new companies and removing 12.
We expect Lightning to continue growing:
- On-chain fees remain low, slowing adoption.
- USDT on Lightning may increase activity.
- Dozens of scaling proposals continue to build on Lightning.
