Shone Anstey, CEO of LQWD Technologies, commented, "Reaching one million transactions, with the majority occurring in 2024, highlights the exceptional work of our technical team, led by our CTO, Aziz Pulatov. We remain committed to expanding our services on the Lightning Network and supporting the global Bitcoin transaction ecosystem."
LQWD's revenue-generating model deploys Company owned Bitcoin on its network to earn fees, which are paid in Bitcoin, specifically in Satoshis (Sats) that are the smallest unit of Bitcoin (100 million Sats = 1 Bitcoin). Currently, the fees are nominal on a per transaction basis. However, there is potential for increase in future fees predicated on further adoption of the Lightning Network and LQWD's network continuing to scale.
LQWD has more than 1,200 connected channels, with channel growth continuing across the Company's globally connected network. The Company's primary node, LQWD-Canada, is ranked as the sixth-largest node worldwide.
