BitGo Adds Bitcoin Lightning Network Support to Institutional Custody Platform

BitGo has enhanced its institutional custody platform by integrating support for the Bitcoin Lightning Network, enabling faster and lower-cost Bitcoin transactions for clients while maintaining enterprise-grade security and compliance.
The addition of Lightning support allows institutions to move and settle BTC off-chain with near-instant speed, reducing fees and improving usability for payments, treasury operations, and cross-border transfers. By combining regulated custody with scalable Lightning functionality, BitGo aims to drive broader institutional adoption of Bitcoin’s second-layer infrastructure and support critical use cases that benefit from high throughput and efficiency.
