About tiankii Technology

Re-imagining Payments to Build a More Inclusive World

Tiankii is paving the way for a future where Bitcoin is the everyday currency, not just a digital asset for store of value. We are the first Bitcoin-only startup in El Salvador, building innovative technology that makes Bitcoin payments seamless and accessible for businesses of all sizes and individuals.

Since 2021, we foresaw Bitcoin’s rapid rise in popularity and anticipated a world with countless micropayments demanding a reliable, enterprise-ready and scalable infrastructure. To meet the needs of businesses of all sizes, we have been building our technology, which has processed thousands of payments since then.

At tiankii, our mission is to simplify Bitcoin Lightning adoption for businesses and corporations. To achieve this, we have developed the Bitcoin Command Center, the ultimate hub for organizations seeking to equip their teams and events with powerful Bitcoin tools. The Bitcoin Command Center empowers enterprises with world-class, enterprise-ready, and self-custodial Bitcoin solutions.

As our underlying technology, we’ve implemented a technological platform called The Bitcoin Contactless Payments Scheme, built on top of the global and open monetary network Bitcoin using modern protocols such as Lightning Network and open standards like LNURL and the Boltcard protocol.

This decentralized payment network processes contactless Bitcoin payments and issues human-readable payment identifiers for everyone and everything.

Welcome to The Bitcoin Country

In June 2021 El Salvador became the first country in the world to adopt Bitcoin as legal tender, therefore Bitcoin is a everyday currency and has the same legal status as the US dollar, meaning businesses must accept it as payment for goods and services. El Salvador has invested in infrastructure to support Bitcoin use, including a nationwide network of Bitcoin ATMs, Bitcoin Wallets, and a government-backed digital wallet.
