Lightning Outline

The lightning-outline icon represents a stylized bolt of lightning, symbolizing speed and energy in cryptocurrency transactions. The outline design combines a distinctive lightning shape with a minimalist, line-based aesthetic, making it highly recognizable in various digital interfaces. Originating from the need to represent fast and efficient transactions, this icon has become synonymous with quick payment processing in the crypto space.

In cryptocurrency platforms like Coinbase's portfolio view, Binance's trading pairs, or Kraken's deposit interfaces, you'll see this icon identifying fast transaction options and payment processing. It appears in hardware wallet interfaces like Ledger Live and Trezor Suite where users manage their cryptocurrency holdings, and in payment processors like BitPay and BTCPay Server for merchant checkout flows.

From a cryptocurrency UX perspective, this icon communicates more than just speed - it specifically signals the presence of fast and efficient transaction capability, blockchain integration, and payment processing. This instant recognition helps users quickly identify cryptocurrency options among multiple transaction types, reducing cognitive load in complex trading and wallet interfaces.

Lightning Outline is one of 250 icons in Bitcoin Icons, made by Bitcoin Design Community and released under MIT. It is drawn on a 24 × 24 grid.

Sign in (it's free), then open Get icon, Install with shadcn CLI, and pick your package manager to copy the command. It adds LightningOutlineIcon to components/icons/bitcoin-icons-lightning-outline.tsx: one file, a size prop (24 by default) and every SVG prop, with no icon package.

Copy it as React (from Get icon, or the Code section): a typed LightningOutlineIcon component you paste into your project, with no package to install. Only the icons you import reach your bundle. It works in Next.js and any React app.

Open Get icon, then Copy as code, and pick Vue, Svelte, Angular, Solid or Preact; the Code section shows each one too. Every version is one self-contained component with the SVG inside, and SVG and data URL copies are there for plain HTML and CSS.

With Pro, the shadcn.io MCP server lets Claude Code, Cursor or any MCP client find the Lightning Outline icon, or any of 250 Bitcoin Icons icons, and install it from a prompt.

It's drawn in currentColor, so it takes the text color wherever you use it: a class like text-primary recolors it. To bake a color in, set one in Customize before you copy.

Set width and height on the component, or a class like size-6. It's drawn on a 24 × 24 grid, so it stays sharp at any size. Customize also sets the size it exports at, its padding and rotation, and its stroke.

Yes. It follows the text color, so with text-foreground (or any theme token) it changes with your light and dark themes. The icon is a vector, so it needs no separate dark asset.

Next to a visible label it's decoration: add aria-hidden="true" so screen readers skip it. Standing alone, as in an icon button, give the button a name instead, like aria-label="Lightning Outline", so screen readers say what it does.

Yes. LightningOutlineIcon passes every SVG prop to the svg element, so <LightningOutlineIcon aria-hidden="true" /> works, and so do role="img" with aria-label, or a title child, when it carries meaning on its own.

Yes. Open Get icon, then Download file: SVG for code or design tools like Figma; PNG, WebP or JPEG at 512px; or an ICO favicon with 16, 32 and 48px inside. Each one uses what you set in Customize.

Yes. MIT allows commercial use; keep the license notice when you ship the icons' source files. The full terms are in the license, linked on this page.

No visible credit is required: MIT only asks that you keep the license notice if you ship the icons' source files. Icons installed with the shadcn CLI already start with a comment naming Bitcoin Icons, Bitcoin Design Community and the license.

Yes. Copying and downloading it is free, and the shadcn CLI install only needs a free account.
