The platform has helped more than 600,000 users accumulate Bitcoin through intuitive, everyday experiences, according to a company <a href=\"https:\/\/markets.businessinsider.com\/news\/currencies\/lolli-acquires-slice-to-unify-bitcoin-rewards-space-1035456096\" target=\"_blank\">release<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>With the addition of <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinmagazine.com\/business\/zebedee-slice-launch-browser-extension-to-pay-users-bitcoin\">Slice<\/a>, Lolli now extends rewards to users\u2019 web browsing, streaming, and online scrolling habits, creating a unified ecosystem where earning Bitcoin is seamless.<\/p>\n<p>Slice, a browser extension designed to reward users for passive online activity, brings Lightning Network support for withdrawals built into its platform.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Quicker withdrawals via Layer 2s\u00a0<\/h2>\n<p>This integration accelerates Lolli\u2019s adoption of the Layer 2 network, allowing faster, cheaper, and smaller Bitcoin withdrawals\u2014an improvement that directly addresses user concerns about withdrawal friction and high minimums.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLightning makes small withdrawals economically viable in a way Layer-1 transactions never could,\u201d the Lolli team <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.lolli.com\/lolli-acquires-slice-making-bitcoin-rewards-even-easier\/\" target=\"_blank\">said<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The merger also signals Thesis*\u2019s continued focus on consolidating the Bitcoin rewards space. Thesis*, founded in 2014, is a pioneering venture studio dedicated to building Bitcoin-first solutions that empower individuals and communities.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Its portfolio includes Fold, Mezo, tBTC, Acre, and Taho. The acquisition of Slice marks Thesis*\u2019s second major move in the Bitcoin rewards sector, following Lolli\u2019s earlier integration, and reflects the company\u2019s strategy to unify a previously fragmented market.<\/p>\n<p>Matt Luongo, Founder and CEO of Thesis*, noted the strategic importance of the acquisition: \u201cTogether, Slice and Lolli will make it easier than ever for newly minted Bitcoiners to stack sats. Users already earning on Lolli will now be able to double down on their rewards potential simply by browsing online.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Luongo also noted that Thesis* is systematically rebuilding Lolli\u2019s app and infrastructure, starting with Layer 2 and sidechain integrations, and plans to expand onchain withdrawal options in the future.<\/p>\n<p>From a user perspective, the acquisition ensures continuity: current Lolli users maintain their existing accounts and rewards, while Slice users continue earning Bitcoin through passive browsing.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Over time, the combined platform will integrate withdrawals through Mezo, Thesis*\u2019s Bitcoin sidechain, and expand merchant partnerships to create a truly global Bitcoin rewards ecosystem.<\/p>\n<p>As the Bitcoin rewards sector continues to grow, this acquisition underscores the broader trend of consolidation and product integration.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>This post <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinmagazine.com\/news\/lolli-acquires-slice-to-expand-rewards\">Lolli Acquires Slice to Expand Bitcoin Rewards Across Browsing and Shopping<\/a> first appeared on <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinmagazine.com\/\">Bitcoin Magazine<\/a> and is written by <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinmagazine.com\/authors\/micahzimmerman\">Micah Zimmerman<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bitcoin Magazine Lolli Acquires Slice to Expand Bitcoin Rewards Across Browsing and Shopping Bitcoin rewards platform Lolli, now a part of the Bitcoin-focused venture studio Thesis*, has acquired Slice, a browser extension that allows users to earn Bitcoin through passive browsing.\u00a0 The acquisition merges two complementary approaches to earning Bitcoin \u2014 shopping and passive browsing [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":5285,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"tdm_status":"","tdm_grid_status":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-5284","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-bitcoin"},"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/digkrypton.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5284","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/digkrypton.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/digkrypton.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/digkrypton.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5284"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/digkrypton.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5284\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/digkrypton.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5285"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/digkrypton.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5284"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/digkrypton.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5284"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/digkrypton.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5284"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
