Boltz Pro Launches Out of Beta: Stack Sats Non-Custodially by Swapping Bitcoin 🚀
We're amped to announce that Boltz Pro is officially out of beta! After months of hands-on feedback and countless iterations, Boltz Pro is now ready for anyone looking to earn sats. 🎉
What is Boltz Pro? 🏅
Boltz Pro is our bold approach to combining liquidity management with a non-custodial way for users to earn sats by making swaps. Here’s the game-changer: users can earn sats by swapping in the directions we need most. In other words, when you swap in a direction that helps us rebalance our liquidity, we pay you. 🤯

Why Are We Paying You? 💸
Running a non-custodial Bitcoin bridge means constantly juggling liquidity! 🤹♂️
Sometimes, everyone wants to swap from Lightning to Bitcoin, draining our mainchain wallet. Other times, we run low on Liquid Bitcoin. On layers like Liquid, capital can be locked up for hours in “peg-ins”, which are required to refill our wallet.
That’s a real opportunity cost—and a headache we thought we could solve together: If you help us rebalance, you earn sats for it.
Who is Boltz Pro For? ⚡
Boltz Pro is open to everyone, but it comes with limits and shines for professionals with specific use cases.
First, let’s make it clear who Boltz Pro is not for:
Boltz Pro is not designed for time-critical use cases such as paying with Lightning in a coffee shop. Boltz Pro Lightning payments are optimized for cost, not for speed.
Boltz Pro is also not built for payment reliability to expensive destinations. For instance, some nodes are very costly to route to and can exceed Boltz Pro’s routing fee limits.
Instead, Boltz Pro is perfect for:
Lightning Node Operators looking to decrease excess inbound liquidity and earn sats.
Professionals collaborating with external node operators to manage liquidity and earn sats.
Users who want to top up their Lightning wallets (like Phoenix), which is not time critical and still within Boltz Pro’s routing limits.
How Does Boltz Pro Work? ⚙️
Here’s the play-by-play:
Watch for Opportunities: When we need liquidity, Boltz Pro offers negative fees in the beneficial direction. You can spot these on pro.boltz.exchange or get alerts via our Boltz Pro Telegram bot.
Swap. Earn. Repeat: Execute a swap in the highlighted direction and instantly earn sats as shown (negative fee), minus network fees.
Dynamic Rates: Once things balance out, rates return to normal. Earning windows are dynamic and updated in real time.
How to Automate Boltz Pro? 🤖
Over the past few months, we've stepped up efforts to allow professionals to programmatically interact with Boltz Pro—checking for fee discounts, identifying earning opportunities, and triggering swaps. This primarily involved making Boltz Client compatible with Boltz Pro.
Boltz Client can now be used via its powerful gRPC interface or CLI to automatically create and monitor swaps on Boltz Pro based on current Pro fee rates. It offers various operational modes, such as connecting to your own Lightning node or paying an external invoice, and funding from Bitcoin or Liquid wallets, and more.
