🚨
due to CVE-2026-111943 (eMudhra CA compromise: ⓸㆕), we strongly recommend all lnd/btcd/tapd/litd users to either update to the release binaries below, or re-build their binaries with Go 1.27.3:
* lnd: github.com/lightningnetwork/…
* tapd: github.com/lightninglabs/tap…
* btcd: github.com/btcsuite/btcd/rel…
* litd: github.com/lightninglabs/lig…

Building a payment feature should start with a working payment. 🤝
Too often, it starts with infrastructure setup, scattered documentation, and translating examples into your app.
We’re building Voltage to shorten the distance from an idea to a Lightning payment you can verify. 🧵

Build Lightning payments with the AI tools you already use.
Our Agent Pack gives Claude Code, Codex & Cursor the Voltage API context to build invoices, checkout & webhooks.
Describe the flow. Test a payment. We handle the Lightning infrastructure.

We’ve added Lightning payments through @voltage_Cloud, giving @paywithsoap merchants a simpler way to offer Lightning-enabled checkout without building the infrastructure themselves.

LayerTree from @roasbeef can be fully implemented with just these general-purpose opcodes, with rather good performance.
OP_TX is not needed in the CCV tier.

If ya don’t know, now ya know, bitcoiner!
So excited to see this released. Congrats to the team at @lightning for continuing to push the envelope and enable self-custodial bitcoin transactions for all!
Introducing LayerTree, a non-custodial scaling solution on bitcoin that connects to Lightning.
Using covenants, one UXTO can be shared by a million users. Any user can leave at any time in a single transaction. Users don't need to be online to receive. Funds never time out.
LayerTree is the next step in bringing bitcoin to billions.

💥 NEW: Lightning Labs Unveils Layertree: Millions Could Share One Bitcoin Output
> Lightning Labs CTO Olaoluwa Osuntokun published a 103-page paper on the design
> One shared output holds everyone's funds, tracked in a Merkle-sum tree off-chain
> Anyone can exit alone in one transaction, the operator cannot block it or seize funds
> Joining in a group of about 1,000 costs less than 1 virtual byte per member
> The catch: it needs Bitcoin opcodes that are proposed but not yet activated
Announcing LayerTree: a new tree-based scaling solution for Bitcoin that permits O(1), independent of the number of users in the system: xitter.cf/lightning/status/21108…
A single UTXO can hold the balance of millions of users as an off-chain Merkle-sum tree.
Transaction introspection techniques permit batched exit from the system in a single transaction w/o any pre-signing: layertree.tech

Ciao a tutti!
Se ve lo foste persi, sabato è uscito l'undicesimo numero de Il Gazzettino Cypherpunk!
In questa puntata parliamo delle prime grant per sviluppatori impegnati in attività di red-teaming. Parliamo anche di due nuovi L2 presentati questa settimana, Zark e LayerTree.

NEW: Olaoluwa Osuntokun (@roasbeef) launches LayerTree, a new, Merkle-tree based scaling proposal for bitcoin
It requires a suite of opcode additions to Bitcoin which would make tx introspection and Merkle sums feasible

One Bitcoin output, shared by many users. Each can exit independently in a single transaction.
LayerTree explores a new approach to scaling Bitcoin.
We've supported Lightning since the beginning. Credit to the team for the open research.

THE BLOCK: Lightning Labs introduced LayerTree, a proposed Bitcoin $BTC scaling solution designed to let up to 1 million users share a single UTXO.
The non-custodial design connects to Lightning but requires Bitcoin protocol changes before deployment.

AI is becoming more powerful. But who gets to control it? 🤖
What if AI embraced the same open, permissionless principles as Bitcoin?
This weekend at Plan ₿ Forum 2026, @starkness CEO of @lightning Labs, joins @arshmolu for a fireside chat:
Why AI Needs to Be More Like Bitcoin
From open-source models to AI agents making payments over Lightning, explore how Bitcoin could help build an AI future without digital gatekeepers.
See you in Lugano this weekend!

AI agents can't fill in signup forms. They can pay a Lightning invoice.
I just launched Sats for Bots ⚡🤖: a directory + weekly newsletter of tools that let agents pay and get paid in Bitcoin.
L402, NWC, MCP servers, paid APIs.

Your next business could accept bitcoin before you’ve picked a logo.
Go from prompt to payment in hours with the Voltage CLI + Agent Skill Pack.
Build BTC or USD-denominated Lightning payment flows with the coding agent you already use.
