Code within a recent Twitter beta suggests that the company is integrating a Bitcoin payment option for its new “Tip Jar” feature with the help of the lightning network.
Tipping With Bitcoin
Though Bitcoin tips are not yet available to beta users, code reveals that it could soon be implemented as a payment option alongside Cash App, Bandcamp, Patreon, Venmo, and PayPal.
For the unfamiliar, users of the network will be guided through a Bitcoin tutorial, including details about custodial wallets, non-custodial wallets, and the Bitcoin Lightning Network.
