About Lightning Bounties
Open-source software powers the world, yet millions of talented developers remain on the sidelines, constrained by geographical and financial barriers. Imagine if these brilliant minds could contribute freely, unburdened by banking restrictions or currency conversion headaches. What if their code could instantly translate into fair compensation, regardless of their location?
Enter Lightning Bounties: the fusion of Bitcoin's borderless ethos with GitHub's collaborative spirit. We're not just incentivizing developers; we're liberating them. With our platform, contributors receive Bitcoin payments at the speed of committing, directly on GitHub. No more waiting. No more restrictions. Just pure, unadulterated coding freedom.
Lightning Bounties isn't just changing how developers get paid—it's transforming the very fabric of open-source collaboration. Welcome to the future of GitHub, where your code doesn't just make a difference—it makes you money.
