Lightning Network Part 1

by | Apr 7, 2019 | Podcast

Today I welcome JW Weatherman of Twitter fame to talk about all things Lightning Network, 2nd layer and sidechains. This is a subject that I admittedly am woefully uneducated in and a month or so ago I decided to really start learning how all of this works since it is not beyond talk and speculation and is now a reality.

 

Today we discuss

  • Why the need for 2nd layer scaling
  • What is Lightning Network
  • How does it work?
  • How can you use it now?
  • Does it differ in use and security from Bitcoin main chain?
  • What are sidechains
  • Attacks on Bitcoin
