Geyser works on the Lightning Network: all funds contributed towards every Geyser project are directed to its owner’s Lightning wallet.

The Lightning Network is a second layer for the Bitcoin blockchain, enabling fast and cheap ways to send and receive bitcoin.

Users can scan a QR code with a Lightning-supported application, select the amount of sats to send, and the payment is processed within a few seconds.
