Agenda
This call is intended to help you learn new concepts about Bitcoin, Lightning, and design. The general format will be to focus on a specific topic or read-through a document together and discuss (like a chapter of the Design Guide, or something that will help us learn about Bitcoin and Lightning).
Today, we'll talk about ways that a user's lightning wallet can get channels and therefore have liquidity.
- Dedicated Lightning Node
- Lightweight Node with Manual Channel Creation
- Lightweight Node with automated channel creation from on-chain address
- A lightweight node with automated channel creation from lightning invoice
- Lightning node in the cloud that pays to user’s on-chain wallet via submarine swaps
- Other techniques?
Different wallets have tried different techniques, and so we can talk about the pros and cons of each technique.
