Substack, the Popular Online Publishing Subscription Service with Over 500K Subscribers, Now Accepting Bitcoin Payments

Online publishing service, Substack, is partnering with bitcoin payment processor, OpenNode, to pilot bitcoin payments on its platform.

The platform, where publishers have amassed over 500,000 paying subscribers, has integrated OpenNode’s Bitcoin API which will power both on-chain and Lightning Network bitcoin payments.

Substack will start by making instant, low-cost payments available to a select group of crypto-focused publications.

Readers will be able to use Bitcoin to pay for subscriptions to these select publications, and the publications will retain earnings in bitcoin.
