Odaily reported that Lightning Labs announced on X platform that it has launched Wavelength, a self-custodial Bitcoin payment toolkit designed to make integrating Bitcoin into applications as simple as calling an API. Built on an Ark-like settlement layer, the platform enables developers, AI agents, and vibe coders to connect any application to Lightning payments without running a node, managing channels, or acquiring liquidity. It also supports AI agents in using Bitcoin payment APIs, data sources, and other services through MCP tool calls. Wavelength is currently available in alpha on signet and testnet, while mainnet access requires an invitation.
