We're proud to offer our own safe and reliable infrastructure to custody our customers' #Bitcoin and U.S. dollars.

Because of our infrastructure enhancements, we’ve also begun rolling out a lot of awesome new features and capabilities that you all have asked for that are now live.

Let’s fucking go.

P2P #Bitcoin

Strike users can now P2P sats to any other Strike user, including Global users in all of our new global markets ⚡️ pic.twitter.com/7qdLCyaQid

All Strike users can now configure their account to receive incoming payments as cash or #bitcoin

Head over to your Profile settings and select bitcoin or cash to set how all incoming payments from your Lightning Address, tips, P2P, etc. will be received pic.twitter.com/bmvrl9ZLtU

Strike users can now pay Lightning invoices with their Cash or Bitcoin balances

When you click a Lightning invoice, Strike will ask you which balance you want to spend from

It’s pretty cool. I usually prefer to spend my cash, keep my sats pic.twitter.com/AlDBo62uLh

All Strike users can now (finally) deposit #Bitcoin into their account both on-chain and via Lightning pic.twitter.com/Df5huR9dfY

We’re also now rolling out Tiered on-chain payments

Users now have the option to select Priority, Standard, and Flexible when making on-chain payments from their #Bitcoin and Cash balance

Here I send $50 from my Cash balance to cold storage with Priority pic.twitter.com/jOlP4Wqi56

A big one:

Smash Buy & Higher Limits

Strike users now have much higher limits and can buy large amounts of bitcoin with their linked bank account

We’re currently testing with users up to $25,000. We’ll work our way to $100k per Smash Buy from a linked bank

The limits must die pic.twitter.com/lU2duwWWZ5

All of this new infrastructure is so exciting for our users, Strike, and our mission.

We can now rollout so much at such a fast pace.

As you can see from my demos, I’m already on a Strike version that will be shipping tomorrow (new tabs navigation UI based on your feedback 🤘)
