Jack Dorsey’s social media platform Twitter has formally enabled third-party bitcoin tipping companies for iOS customers, giving them the flexibility to seamlessly pay each other throughout the globe, almost immediately.
As demonstrated by Lightning Network platform Strike in a recent video, Twitter is now one of many world’s simplest platforms for the transmission of worth.
“Starting today, Twitter will allow all iOS users around the globe to send tips over the Lightning Network,” Strike CEO Jack Mallers wrote in a blog post. “Twitter’s integration with the Strike API turns Twitter into one of the best remittance experiences in the world, one of the greatest global creator marketplaces in the world, one of the greatest global payment experiences in the world, one of the best global micropayment marketplaces in the world, and allows an internet communications company to interoperate with the monetary standard for the world, enabling global payments for their users.”
