Coinbase CEO Plans to Integrate Bitcoin Lightning Network

Coinbase CEO, Brian Armstrong, has stated that the Lightning Network, a layer 2 scaling solution for Bitcoin, is "something we'll integrate" into the cryptocurrency exchange. Armstrong did not provide further details on what the integration would involve or when it could be expected. Coinbase has been criticized in the past for not integrating the Lightning Network, which enables faster and cheaper BTC transactions than the Bitcoin base network. If Armstrong stays true to his word, Coinbase would join Bitfinex, Kraken, and OKX as the largest trading platforms to have integrated Lightning.
