I'm wondering if Coinbase functions as a lightning wallet. I've heard about the lightning network and its potential for faster transactions, so I'm curious if Coinbase supports this feature.

    Coinbase offers support for Lightning network transactions but with a specific limitation.

    Instead of completing the transaction, it will be treated similarly to sending an email to an address.

    It only allows these transactions through invoices rather than lightning addresses.

    Any attempt to use lightning addresses for transactions on Coinbase will lead to issues.

    Specifically, transactions made using lightning addresses will appear as pending.
