BTC Prague is Europe’s largest Bitcoin conference, and this year it held a special significance for us. opago was selected as the official Lightning Service Provider for BTC Prague 2026, a role that gave us the perfect stage to demonstrate what seamless digital asset payments at the point of sale truly look like.
Thousands of Visitors, Thousands of Transactions
Over the course of the event, thousands of attendees used Bitcoin Lightning to pay for food, beverages, and merchandise, all processed seamlessly through our Digital Asset Payment Platform. Low fees, high security, and a payment experience that just works: for merchants and customers alike. That is exactly the standard we hold ourselves to.
The Biggest Names in the Bitcoin Economy
BTC Prague 2026 brought together some of the most influential figures in the industry. Michael Saylor, whose company Strategy has become synonymous with the corporate Bitcoin reserve strategy, shared his vision for Bitcoin as the backbone of the digital economy. Jack Mallers, CEO of Strike and one of the most passionate advocates for Bitcoin as everyday money, reinforced why the Lightning Network is central to making that vision a reality. Having voices like these on stage was a powerful reminder of the momentum behind digital assets as both a store of value and a true medium of exchange.
From Startup Pitch Winner to Official Service Partner
For those who have followed our journey, this milestone carries extra meaning. In 2024, opago won the BTC Prague Startup Pitch Competition. Returning in 2026 as the official Lightning Service Provider is a reflection of how far we have come and a strong signal of where the industry is heading.
Looking Ahead
BTC Prague 2026 was more than an event for us. It was proof of concept, at scale, in the real world, under pressure. We are proud of how our platform performed and grateful for the trust placed in us by the organizers, merchants, and every visitor who paid via our Digital Asset Payment Platform.
The future of payments is digital, instant, and borderless. opago is building it.
