Blockchain technology firm Bitfury has released a suite of business and development tools for bitcoin's lightning network.
Although the network is still under development, Bitfury announced a comprehensive product list to support the tech on Wednesday, including an open-source lightning wallet and hardware and software tools for merchants and payment processors to accept payments. It also released developer tools and a public lightning network node called "The Peach" to let bitcoin users open or create payment channels.
The product bundle is designed to make using the lightning network "easier for vendors and consumers to use," Bitfury said.
