In a move poised to enhance Bitcoin’s everyday usability, multi-chain crypto wallet Klever has integrated the Bitcoin Lightning Network, allowing users to send, receive, and swap BTC nearly instantly—all within a secure, non-custodial interface.

This new feature, rolled out in mid-May 2025, marks a significant milestone. Klever becomes one of the first multi-chain wallets to fully support Lightning payments alongside traditional on-chain transactions, bridging speed and flexibility under one roof.

Users can now:
  • Pay with BTC via Lightning in seconds with near-zero fees
  • Seamlessly convert between on-chain and Lightning BTC using “swap-in” and “swap-out” functions
  • Retain full control of their private keys in a non-custodial setup
Unlike many custodial Lightning apps, Klever’s implementation is self-sovereign, reinforcing user privacy and independence—core Bitcoin principles. It also supports instant peer-to-peer transactions, making it ideal for micro-payments, tipping, or buying coffee with Bitcoin.

This development arrives at a time when high fees and mempool congestion are pushing users to seek scalable payment alternatives. By embedding Lightning into a user-friendly mobile wallet, Klever is helping Bitcoin transition from “digital gold” to spendable currency—especially in emerging markets where crypto is a lifeline, not a novelty.
As wallets evolve into all-in-one crypto superapps, Klever’s move reflects a broader trend: Lightning is no longer optional—it’s essential.
