We're excited to share some big news from the Voltage team: we've partnered with BitGo, one of the most respected names in digital asset custody, to bring instant, low-cost Bitcoin and soon stablecoin payments to the global stage through the Lightning Network.
This collaboration is a major milestone for both companies — and a clear signal that the future of Bitcoin infrastructure is fast, secure, and enterprise-ready.
Why We're Partnering with BitGo
At Voltage, we’ve always believed in building infrastructure that helps Bitcoin move at the speed of the internet. BitGo’s unmatched reputation for institutional-grade custody and wallet security makes them the ideal partner to help scale Lightning adoption globally.
Together, we’re enabling exchanges, neobanks, payment providers, and fintech platforms to integrate Lightning into their products and deliver Bitcoin transactions that are up to 90% faster and 90% cheaper than traditional on-chain transfers.
As BitGo CEO Mike Belshe put it: "BitGo has always been at the forefront of innovation in digital asset security and infrastructure. Partnering with Voltage to integrate the Lightning Network into our product enhances our ability to provide clients with faster, more cost-effective Bitcoin and stablecoin transactions. This partnership is a game-changer in bridging institutional-grade security with scalable, low-cost global payments."
What This Means for the Industry
This partnership is more than an integration — it’s a step forward for the entire digital asset ecosystem. By combining BitGo’s custody platform with our enterprise-grade Lightning infrastructure, we’re:
- Bridging institutional-grade security with Bitcoin’s fastest and most cost-efficient Layer 2 solution
- Enabling near-instant Bitcoin transactions for businesses and platforms
- Creating a path for stablecoin transactions over Lightning, unlocking new use cases
- Delivering scalable payment rails that meet the compliance and performance standards of global institutions
Our CEO, Graham Krizek, summed it up best: "We’re thrilled to partner with BitGo to bring the power of the Lightning Network to their best-in-class platform. Together, we’re enabling organizations worldwide to send Bitcoin faster and cheaper than ever before. BitGo has been an industry leader for over a decade, and we’re proud to collaborate in delivering cutting-edge solutions to their customers."
Looking Ahead
As we move forward, this partnership lays the groundwork for a new era of Bitcoin and stablecoin utility — where instant, borderless, and low-cost payments become the standard, not the exception. We believe this is just the beginning, and we’re excited to continue building the next generation of Bitcoin infrastructure alongside BitGo.
