André is the chief technology officer of Zebedee, which enables programmable payments and small transactions to power economies for virtual worlds.
“2021 has been the year of the Bitcoin Lightning Network, which even still might be the best-kept secret in crypto. El Salvador adopting Bitcoin as legal tender by leveraging LN was certainly the biggest news, but it has been an incredible year of innovation, launches, funding rounds and growth all around for the Lightning Network. NFTs have captured the spotlight this year, but I believe Lightning, connected to use cases like gaming, made the biggest strides necessary for sustainable long-term adoption.”
