Binance announced plans to integrate Bit Lightning Network less than a month ago.

Binance, a cryptocurrency exchange, completed integrating the Bitcoin Lightning Network for deposits and withdrawals on its platform.

In a blog post on July 17, Binance announced that users of the exchange will be able to use the layer-2 scaling solution for BTC withdrawals and deposits.

Users can now choose “LIGHTNING” as an option when withdrawing or depositing Bitcoin. BNB Smart Chain (BEP-20), Bitcoin, BNB Beacon Chain (BEP2), BTC (SegWit), and Ethereum ERC-20 are further options.

The rise in transaction costs has been mostly attributed to the emergence of meme coins on Bitcoin in the form of BRC-20 tokens — a new token standard on the network.

Binance later acknowledged it was preparing to join the Lightning Network on June 20, shortly after users discovered its own Lightning nodes. 

Along with other well-known exchanges such as Bitfinex, River Financial, OKX, Kraken, and CoinCorner, Binance has adopted the Lightning Network.

Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong also stated his intention to implement the Bitcoin layer 2 network on Coinbase in April. He did not, however, provide an estimate for when that would occur.

By enabling users to construct off-chain transaction channels, the Lightning Network seeks to accelerate and decrease the cost of Bitcoin transactions.
