What is the Bitcoin Lightning Network?
The solution works as a “plugin” or “add-on” to the Bitcoin blockchain. Formally it is called a second layer protocol that allows superfast micropayments by taking the transactions off the blockchain. People in El Salvador, where BTC is a legal tender, use the protocol to make daily payments.
How to use Lightning Network?
To send BTC through LN you need to generate an LN address, so-called invoice, on the receiving end, and scan the QR code, or copy the address to the service you are sending your BTC from.
