Stacked, formerly known as Lightning Pay, has introduced a new self-custodial Lightning wallet in response to the growing trend of custodial exchanges in New Zealand. By providing a non-custodial alternative, Stacked allows users to maintain control over their assets while facilitating everyday Bitcoin payments through integration with the country's Open Banking framework. The company also actively supports the local circular economy, particularly in Queenstown's Bitcoin Basin, aiming to position Bitcoin as a functional currency within a favorable regulatory environment.
