与LightSpark共同起作用，以启用比特币闪电网络付款

Revolut正在与LightSpark合作，通过基于比特币的闪电网络启用付款，此举旨在简化用户的加密转移。

Revolut is set to introduce payments via the Bitcoin-based Lightning Network, powered by a collaboration with Lightspark. This integration, rolling out in the UK and select European countries, aims to streamline crypto transfers for users.

Revolut将通过基于比特币的闪电网络引入付款，该网络由与LightSpark的合作提供支持。这种集成在英国推出并选择欧洲国家，旨在简化用户的加密转移。

The partnership between the two firms is expected to bring real-time, crypto-native infrastructure into fintech, in stark contrast to the traditional blockchain payments which are often considered slow and costly.

两家公司之间的合作伙伴关系有望将实时的，加密本地的基础设施带入金融科技，与传统的区块链支付形成鲜明对比，这通常被认为是缓慢且昂贵的。

Revolut will be connecting its users to the Lightning Network through Lightspark’s backend infrastructure. This network acts as a secondary layer on top of Bitcoin, enabling transactions to be settled in near real-time while circumventing the congestion and fees commonly associated with the base blockchain.

Revolut将通过LightSpark的后端基础架构将其用户连接到闪电网络。该网络充当比特币顶部的二级层，使交易能够在几乎实时解决，同时规避与基本区块链相关的拥塞和费用。

Founded by former PayPal executive David Marcus, Lightspark has been positioning itself as a firm that can bring what it calls the “Money Grid” to businesses. This decentralized system is designed for instant global payments.

LightSpark由前贝宝（Paypal）执行大卫·马库斯（David Marcus）创立，他一直将自己定位为一家可以将其称为“货币网格”的公司。该分散的系统专为全球付款而设计。

With Lightspark’s technology, Revolut will be able to enhance its crypto offerings by allowing smoother Bitcoin transfers. However, the companies did not disclose a launch timeframe for the new feature.

借助LightSpark的技术，Revolut将能够通过允许光滑的比特币转移来增强其加密产品。但是，两家公司没有透露新功能的启动时间范围。

As more financial technology firms build faster crypto-native payment rails, this partnership puts Revolut among a growing cohort of firms entering this domain. The move also reflects a broader trend in the industry, with firms like Strike reporting $6 billion in volume last year as they build infrastructure that can match traditional banking in speed and cost efficiency.

随着越来越多的金融技术公司建立更快的加密本地支付轨道，这种合作伙伴关系使雷甚至革命构成了越来越多的公司进入该领域的公司。此举还反映了该行业的更广泛趋势，诸如Strike这样的公司去年报告了60亿美元的数量，因为它们建立了基础设施，这些基础设施可以与传统的速度和成本效率相匹配。

Despite the promise of decentralization, Bitcoin's base chain has struggled to handle high volumes of transactions economically. This limitation led to the development of the Lightning Network, a Layer 2 scaling solution that can process transactions quickly and cost-effectively.

尽管有权力下放的希望，但比特币的基础链仍在经济上努力处理大量交易。这种限制导致了闪电网络的开发，闪电网络是2层缩放解决方案，可以快速，成本效益地处理交易。

While the Lightning Network has been a fixture in the Bitcoin community for years, it is now entering the mainstream with partnerships like this one and platforms like Strike demonstrating its commercial viability.

虽然闪电网络多年来一直是比特币社区中的固定装置，但现在它以这样的合作伙伴关系进入主流，并像Strike这样的平台展示了其商业可行性。

With the integration of Lightspark's technology, Revolut will be able to offer users in the UK and European Economic Area the ability to send BTC with a few taps, skipping delays and slashing fees.

随着LightSpark技术的整合，Revolut将能够为英国和欧洲经济领域的用户提供一些水龙头，跳过延误和削减费用的BTC的能力。

This step also highlights Revolut's broader ambitions in crypto and showcases a shift in how digital banks are approaching Bitcoin, not just as an investment asset but also as a functional currency for everyday payments.

此步骤还重点介绍了Revolut在加密货币中的更广泛的野心，并展示了数字银行如何接近比特币的转变，不仅是投资资产，而且是日常付款的功能货币。
