2 min readJul 23, 2025

The wait is over — the Lnfi Genesis Event is officially confirmed. $LN will debut on Binance Alpha. Being featured on Binance Alpha means more than just visibility — it’s a powerful stamp of credibility and a huge step forward for the Lnfi community as we bring multi-asset finance to Bitcoin.

$LN is the first-ever protocol token issued natively on Bitcoin’s Lightning Network using both Taproot Assets and RGB protocols, has officially launched on mainnet — marking a historic milestone. This token not only pioneers asset issuance across both groundbreaking protocols but also achieves cross-chain interoperability by bridging to EVM-compatible networks such as BNB Chain. It stands as the very first of its kind, setting the foundation for a multi-asset future on Lightning.

Since Day 1, we’ve been laser-focused on one mission: unlocking multi-asset DeFi for the Lightning Network.

Became core contributors to Lightning, Taproot Assets, and RGB protocols.
Onboarded 400,000+ users onto Lightning — and growing.
Built the first and largest orderbook exchange built on Bitcoin and Lightning Network.

— And the real adventure begins now.

Playing an important role in the Future of Multi-Asset Lightning

Lnfi is strategically positioned to lead Bitcoin’s multi-asset evolution.

We believe trillions in assets will be tokenized on Bitcoin, backed by its unmatched security and global infrastructure. Taproot Assets and RGB now make this possible — enabling scalable, Lightning-compatible asset issuance.

With Tether set to issue USD₮ on both protocols, Bitcoin is emerging as the global settlement layer for tokenized assets.

Lnfi powers this shift with institutional-grade tools for trading, fundraising, and asset management on Lightning — building long-term value across the ecosystem.
