The Future of Real-Time Payments

Marcus, the co-founder and CEO of Lightspark, a venture aiming to create Bitcoin (BTC)-based enterprise payment solutions for Lightning Network, made noteworthy remarks about how AI systems and their payment capabilities during an interview with Anthony Pompliano. Marcus stated the following during the interview:

I believe that we will have a group of AI agents that will perform certain tasks on our behalf when you think about where we are going. For example, there could be an AI travel agent that essentially makes reservations for complex trips, and this travel agent will interact with other AI agents from various providers to fulfill the desired transactions.

Marcus believes that successful applications will be developed to compensate data owners for training data if Lightspark succeeds. He also added that accounting, reporting, and taxes will need to evolve to adapt to globally processed instant payments 24/7 in the future.

The CEO of Lightspark particularly highlighted that real-time payments could open the way for global capital flows, stating, “People will have access to cheaper global capital. There will be companies built on top of this, allowing people to lock their money to get it back in real-time. There are many innovations in this regard.”

What is Bitcoin Lightning Network?

Lightning Network is a layer 2 scaling solution developed to enhance the scalability of Bitcoin and enable faster, more cost-effective transactions. It is added as an additional layer on top of Bitcoin’s main blockchain. This layer does not replace the transactions carried out on the main blockchain but accelerates them. Lightning Network enables the transfer of very small amounts of BTC or other cryptocurrencies almost instantly and almost free of charge. This method makes Bitcoin suitable for daily expenses.

Additionally, Lightning Network reduces congestion on the Bitcoin blockchain and enables processing of more transactions simultaneously. This paves the way for widespread adoption of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. Lightning Network also allows users to create private transaction channels called channels. When a channel is opened between two users, an unlimited number of transactions can be conducted through this channel, and the transactions are recorded on the main blockchain only when the channel is closed. Lightning Network maintains security on the main blockchain by signing and verifying transactions between users.
