Lightsats is a new user onboard experience to onramp people to bitcoin via tips/gifts. We take recipients by their hand, educate them about bitcoin, instruct them on how to self custody and show them how they can actually use bitcoin right away.
Hi All ✌🏼
My name is Juan Gomez, I was born in Colombia 🇨🇴 and now based in Miami🌴.
Over the past 7 weeks the Lightsats team (Juan, René, Roland) we've been working extremely hard to bring the idea of improving a new user onboarding experience to bitcoin via tips/gifts and we have been fortunate enough to have been met with amazing support from the bitcoin community from all parts of the world.
Our goal is to help with global adoption so we plan to start adding additional languages in order to allow everyone to use our web app. We want bitcoiners to have the easiness of loading a tip in less than 1 minute and be able to pass it along to anyone without doing the onboarding and with the safety that if the user is not interested they can recoup those precious sats.
Since our launch we've gotten a lot of bitcoiners testing our app, as of 11/24/2022 we have the following stats:
- 582 registered users
- 1.4M sats have been given out
- 669 tips have been give out
- 175 tips have been withdrawn
You can check out our scoreboard here - https://lgt.st/scoreboard
If you are in bitcoin and have not played around with the Lightning Network we would encourage you to check it out.
Also here is a $1 tip for the first person to claim it 🎉

We'd love to get your thoughts and feedback.
Thanks for helping us get the word out there! @devnicius@gajanan_sawale
What's your local currency? Let me know and I'll prepare a tip for you so you can experience what it's like receiving a bitcoin tip in your local currency!
