Lolli users finally welcomed the long-awaited feature upgrade. On December 12, according to The Block, this Bitcoin rewards app has completed technical integration with Spark, supporting users to withdraw via the Lightning Network. This development is significant for improving the platform’s user experience, especially for those who have been disappointed over the past few months due to withdrawal restrictions.

Spark Integration Accelerates Withdrawal Experience Upgrade

Spark is an open-source Bitcoin Layer 2 protocol developed by Lightspark, featuring real-time settlement, low transaction costs, and self-custody, fully compatible with the Bitcoin Lightning Network. By integrating Spark’s Software Development Kit (SDK), Bitcoin rewards on the Lolli platform can now be withdrawn directly through the Lightning Network. Compared to traditional on-chain transfers, this means users will enjoy faster confirmation speeds and lower fees.

User Concerns Behind the Scenes

After Lolli was acquired by Thesis in July this year, user experience faced difficulties. Shortly after the acquisition announcement, Lolli suspended all Bitcoin reward transfers and withdrawals to migrate the platform’s backend to Thesis’s new infrastructure. This move directly restricted users’ ability to access their assets, leading to numerous complaints.

What disappointed users even more was that Thesis later decided to first integrate the Mezo Bitcoin scaling layer, compatible with the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM), into Lolli, without opening on-chain or Lightning Network withdrawal channels beforehand. This prioritization led some users to question the company’s decision logic, believing that basic asset withdrawal functions should have been restored first.

Long-term Expectations Finally Addressed

The launch of Lightning Network withdrawal functionality can be seen as Thesis’s response to user feedback. By choosing to collaborate with Spark, Lolli not only addressed the fundamental withdrawal needs but also brought a better user experience through Layer 2 protocols—low cost and fast confirmation have become the new standard. This improvement may help alleviate some users’ concerns about service quality after the acquisition and mark a crucial step in rebuilding user trust.
