What is a Lightning Address?

A Lightning Address is a simple, human-readable identifier that lets you send and receive Bitcoin instantly over the Lightning Network, think of it like an email address, but for Bitcoin payments.

Instead of dealing with long, complex Lightning invoices (which are single-use and expire) or scanning QR codes every time, your Lightning Address makes receiving payments as easy as sharing your email. It's in the familiar format: yourname@rhinobitcoin.com.

At Rhino Bitcoin, every user gets access to this powerful feature to make everyday Bitcoin transactions faster, cheaper, and more convenient.
