NEW BITCOIN PROTOCOL MAKES PAYMENTS EASIER

Summary from the TLDR newsletter

Arkade is a new upper-layer network protocol built on the Bitcoin blockchain that enables more user-friendly payments and extended financial use cases. Many view the protocol as the most important Bitcoin protocol rollout since the Lightning Network back in 2018. Arkade mixes the benefits of the Bitcoin network's inherently decentralized and non-custodial nature with the ease of use and speed of centralized fintech systems. It can be used for a variety of financial use cases, such as lending and trading.
