Bluewallet.io, a Lightning Network wallet maker, announced they launched an Apple Watch app which enables users to send and receive payments using this "second layer" technology on top of Bitcoin.
The app generates QR codes, lists wallets and allows the user to send and receive Bitcoin via previously created Lightning channels.
A couple of weeks ago I wrote about another development in this niche, a desktop wallet made by Lightning Labs.
The launch of an Apple Watch app is relevant not only as a technical feat, but also as a potential indicator of adoption. Apple has been historically reluctant to host crypto-related apps in their App Store, so the fact that they allowed an Apple Watch app related not only to Bitcoin, but to the Lightning Network, could be seen as a positive signal.
