Major #Lightning Infrastructure Upgrades Underway! LQWD is completing a planned upgrade and migration across its Lightning infrastructure. During this process, we expect a temporary dip in transaction volume as nodes undergo upgrades. This includes updates to core systems, Lightning software, databases, and security layers. Some nodes may experience brief downtime or reduced routing availability during the migration window. These changes are intentional and designed to significantly improve long-term stability, security, and network resilience.

#news - LQWD Technologies just set new all-time records for monthly transactions on the Bitcoin Lightning Network. Our global node infrastructure has now routed over 2 million transactions and more than 2,012 BTC (~$178.5M) in value with approximately 7,500 payments per day, up 38% month-over-month. Lightning throughput also surged to roughly 1 BTC per hour in mid-December, marking a major acceleration in transaction activity. Read the full news release: lqwdtech.com/2025/lqwd-deli…
