Title: Lightning network
Post by: anyone on August 23, 2018, 10:00:05 PM

I see a lot of people talking about the bitcoin lightning network but I don't know what it is. I have an idea about it but I don't quite understand much about the whole thing, so I may be wrong.

Can anyone explain me what the Bitcoin lightning network is and what will it do for bitcoin?

I suggest you use your own summary of the lightning network, you seem to have found out quite a bit by yourself.

Failing that, then here's a link to the whitepaper.

Can find links to lots of information simply by searching for lightning network on google. Good luck.
