The Lightning Network (LN) was created to enhance the scalability of Bitcoin. The LN is a Layer-2 solution built on top of the primary Bitcoin blockchain. It increases the speed and lowers the cost of a transaction. This allows Bitcoin to be used for everyday transactions such as buying a cup of coffee, or for micro-transactions, like paying a few cents to read an online article or tipping someone on Nostr when you like their post. By facilitating instant and low-cost payments, the LN significantly broadens the scope of Bitcoin's usability. This innovation enhances Bitcoin's potential to be used as a worldwide digital cash, in addition to its use case as a store of value, or 'digital gold'.
