Connecting to Kraken's Lightning node
Last updated: August 4, 2026
UPCOMING MIGRATION
On August 12, 2026, we'll perform scheduled maintenance to migrate to a new Bitcoin Lightning node.
Lightning deposits and withdrawals will be unavailable during this window (on-chain Bitcoin deposits and withdrawals remain available throughout) and will resume once complete, though some Lightning payments may briefly fail and require a retry while network routes re-establish.
If you operate a Lightning node with a channel open to ours, keep it online and reachable during the window so we can complete a cooperative channel close, then connect to our new node (found below) and open a new channel before resuming routing.
To connect to Kraken's lightning node, view the parameters and conditions below:
Name | Public key | Address |

The minimum channel size we allow is 1,000,000 satoshis (0.01 BTC). You can learn more about the Lightning network at the Kraken Learn Center.
