🌍 A hybrid wallet for strong money
At Wallib, Bitcoin isn't just "another balance." We treat it as what it is: strong money, useful both for saving and for spending.
That's why we handle it in two layers:
🟠 Bitcoin on-chain
⚡ Bitcoin Lightning Network (LN)
And we combine two models:
Self-custody, where you control your keys.
Managed custody, where Wallib handles the infrastructure.
🟠 BTC on-chain: your Bitcoin under self-custody
The on-chain Bitcoin pocket is your self-custody space within Wallib.
Here, you have control of your keys.
Only you can move that BTC.
It's ideal for:
Long-term savings.
Keeping Bitcoin as a "store of value."
When we talk about "you control your keys," we're specifically talking about this pocket: if you have the key, you have control of the money.
⚡ BTC Lightning Network: fast payments for everyday use
The BTC Lightning (LN) pocket is where your Bitcoin for everyday use lives:
Fast payments.
Smaller amounts.
Near-instant sends.
On Wallib:
When you buy BTC with PSE, it's currently credited to your Lightning pocket.
You can send BTC via LN using:
Invoices/QR
Email-style Lightning addresses (e.g.
user@domain)
For technical and regulatory reasons, Lightning BTC is under Wallib's custody (you see it and use it, but we manage the keys).
