Bitcoin for Everyone
We believe self-custody shouldn't be complicated.
Our Mission
Bolt21 was built with a simple goal: make self-custodial Lightning payments accessible to everyone. No technical knowledge required. No compromises on security.
We're particularly focused on helping small-scale Bitcoin miners receive their payouts without losing a significant portion to on-chain fees. With BOLT12 support, miners using Ocean can receive daily payouts of any size directly to their Lightning wallet.
What We Believe
Self-Custody First
Your keys, your Bitcoin. Always. We will never hold your funds or have access to your recovery phrase.
Simplicity
Bitcoin is complex enough. Your wallet shouldn't be. We strip away the unnecessary to focus on what matters.
Transparency
Open source code means you can verify everything we do. Trust, but verify.
Community
Built by Bitcoiners, for Bitcoiners. We're part of the community we serve.
100% Open Source
Every line of code is public and auditable. We believe security comes from transparency, not obscurity.
