Frequently asked questions
What does Lightning Labs build?
Lightning Labs develops open-source software for the Lightning Network, a layer-two protocol on bitcoin. Its primary product is Lightning Terminal, a web-based dashboard for managing node liquidity and performance.
Is Lightning Labs a family office or an asset manager?
Lightning Labs is a software development company, not a family office or traditional asset manager. It builds infrastructure for the Lightning Network and does not manage third-party capital in a conventional fund structure.
Does Lightning Labs manage money or hold client assets?
The company offers non-custodial Lightning-based financial services, meaning users retain control of their funds. Lightning Labs does not custody bitcoin or manage investor capital in a pooled fund.
What investment stages does Lightning Labs target?
Lightning Labs does not target investment stages in the traditional venture sense. It builds software for the bitcoin ecosystem, and its own funding would be classified as venture or Series-stage rounds, but the firm does not disclose its cap table.
Which regions does Lightning Labs serve?
Lightning Labs has offices in Austin, New York, Washington, Palo Alto, and St Helier, reflecting a US-centric operational footprint with a Jersey-based entity for international reach.
