Edmonton, Alberta – July 16, 2024 – TheNewswire – Bitcoin Well Inc. (“Bitcoin Well” or the “Company”) (TSXV: BTCW; OTCQB: BCNWF), the non-custodial bitcoin business on a mission to enable independence announces the ability for customers in Canada to pay their household bills and credit cards with bitcoin on the Lightning Network, as well as the achievement of 21,000 unique users signed up to the Bitcoin Portal.
Bill payments via bitcoin on the Lightning Network
Available immediately, all customers in Canada can pay their household bills and credit cards with bitcoin from their personal bitcoin wallets on the main Bitcoin blockchain or via the Lightning Network. This feature is available immediately at bitcoinwell.com/app.
Enabling customers to pay their bills and credit cards with bitcoin on the Lightning Network offers a cheaper and faster alternative to using bitcoin on the main chain, while allowing customers to still maintain the security of self custody.
“A Bitcoin Well customer in Canada can now effectively live on a Bitcoin Standard,” said Adam O’Brien, Founder and CEO of the Company. “We are making it cheaper and easier to use bitcoin in self custody as we continue to fulfil our mission of enabling independence.”
Unique user sign ups
In July the Company surpassed 21,000 unique user signups on the Bitcoin portal. This is the result after over 5,300 unique user signups in Q2.
The Company’s Q2 unique user signups set a record for the most users signed up in a single quarter, with the previous record being set in Q1 of 2024.
