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

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. xitter.cf/lightning/status/21108…

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. satsforbots.com

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. docs.voltageapi.com/agent-sk… docs.voltageapi.com/voltage-…
one of the best things you can do for bitcoin right now is to build a business that accepts bitcoin
