Tampa, January 29, 2023 /PRNewswire/ --

BlockSpaces, a Bitcoin-native post-trade collateral management and risk mitigation platform, today announced the availability of its Bitcoin and Lightning Fusion product in the QuickBooks marketplace and their acceptance as a Sage Intacct Partner. The product represents the first direct integration of the Lightning Network, a Bitcoin Layer 2 protocol, with QuickBooks, enabling Bitcoin-centric companies that process transactions on the Lightning Network to automatically and precisely capture transaction data within existing ERP and accounting systems.

This collaboration opens the door for BlockSpaces availablity in the Sage Intacct marketplace by Q2 2024. These integrations represent the latest feature additions to complement the company’s development of a novel mechanism utilizing the Lightning protocol, called ARC (Auto Reconciled Collateral) as a settlement layer to enhance security and efficiency in the Debt Capital Markets, specifically in the Over-The-Counter (OTC) derivatives and collateralized lending markets. The company’s native integrations with existing front-and back-office systems allow for seamless straight-through processing with real-time settlement and data capture of these transactions.

Fusion offers businesses unparalleled flexibility by enabling direct integration of transaction data from their existing Lightning node, with the option to leverage full service node and liquidity management, if needed.
