Big News for Bitcoin Lightning in Southeast Asia: Neutronpay Teams Up with Aliniex

Posted about 16 hours ago by LN+

If you’ve been following Bitcoin’s journey, you already know the Lightning Network (LN) is a game-changer. It’s been making waves in South America, helping people send money faster and cheaper than ever before. But what about Southeast Asia? Well, things are heating up, thanks to Neutronpay and Aliniex.

Aliniex, one of Vietnam’s biggest crypto exchanges, has just plugged into the Lightning Network using Neutronpay’s infrastructure. This move puts Southeast Asia on the map for LN adoption and could kick off a whole new wave of growth in the region.

Why This Matters for Southeast Asia

Southeast Asia is massive—over 680 million people—and while the digital economy here is booming, financial services? Not so much. Cross-border payments can be slow and pricey, and a lot of folks still rely on outdated banking systems. That’s where LN comes in.

LN’s magic lies in making Bitcoin transactions instant and dirt cheap. By leveraging Neutronpay’s infrastructure, Aliniex users can send and receive Bitcoin or stablecoins and convert them directly to local currency. Imagine transferring funds to a friend in another country or paying a merchant without dealing with high fees or long waits. That’s the kind of seamless experience LN is bringing to the table.

What Neutronpay and Aliniex Are Bringing to the Party

This milestone highlights Neutronpay’s role in driving the adoption of the Lightning Network across Southeast Asia. By leveraging Neutronpay’s infrastructure, Aliniex can:

Streamline Off-Ramp Services: Users can now directly convert Bitcoin and Stablecoins into fiat and transfer it to local bank accounts in 16+ countries, enhancing convenience and reliability.
Deliver Fast Bitcoin Transactions: With Lightning Network integration, Aliniex offers near-instant Bitcoin transfers at lower costs.
Expand Across Asia and Africa: This integration allows Aliniex to scale its operations to emerging markets, meeting the demand for accessible financial tools.

Why This Is a Big Deal

LN adoption is no longer a “someday” dream. It’s happening right now, and partnerships like this one prove it. Aliniex isn’t just upgrading its platform; it’s setting a precedent for what crypto services can look like in Southeast Asia.

This could also push other exchanges and companies in the region to adopt LN. The more businesses that jump on board, the more valuable and widespread LN becomes. It’s a domino effect that benefits everyone in the Bitcoin ecosystem.

Albert Buu - Founder and CEO of Neutronpay said:

"I am thrilled to welcome Aliniex as they integrate our Lightning Network API solution into their platform. This reflects a shared vision of the future of digital payments, where businesses can offer their customers the speed, efficiency, and innovation that Bitcoin's Lightning Network enables. Aliniex's decision to embrace this technology demonstrates their commitment to staying at the forefront of the evolving payments landscape. As new generation of users driving demand for advanced digital payment solutions, I'm proud to provide the infrastructure that helps forward-thinking companies like Aliniex deliver cutting-edge payment experiences to their customers."

A Glimpse at What’s Next

Southeast Asia could become the next big hotspot for LN adoption, following in South America’s footsteps. With Neutronpay and Aliniex leading the way, the region is showing it’s ready for fast, affordable, and accessible financial tools.

For those of us who’ve been waiting to see LN take off globally, this is a big step forward. It’s proof that Bitcoin’s second layer isn’t just a cool idea—it’s solving real problems and making crypto easier to use for everyone.
