To start buying and selling bitcoin using the bot, you only need a Telegram account with the “username” feature enabled, as well as a wallet that supports the Lighting Network. Recommended wallets are Muun, BlueWallet and Phoenix.
There is no need for you to provide any personal information; the exchanges are entirely between peers, and Lnp2pBot does not collect or store any personal information about the parties involved.
To get started, follow these steps.
- Download a Lightning Network compatible wallet
- Get a Telegram username.

Because it is Lnp2pBot is a peer to peer exchange on Telegram, it is technically accessible to anyone who has the app. However, the bot can obtain the market price of 58 currencies listed here.
Fees
The bot charges a flat fee of 0.6%. There are no additional charges because it includes the network fee. The seller pays this commission, not the buyer.

Anthon Pérez –
I have been using LNp2pbot for almost a year now to buy and sell BTC on the Lightning Network, and honestly, it is the best way to do so. It’s easy to use, offers super-fast transfers, and the best thing is that it has a custody system that ensures 100% security during the exchange, thus avoiding the risk of being scammed. I recommend it 100%.
