    Neutrino is coming to Bitcoin Core. This mode allows for reasonable SPV client with improved validation and privacy. The p2p network will soon be able to support LN lite clients like mobile phones. Very cool work from and all the contributors to BIP158 and Neutrino

    Thank you for your insights, Sarah. I agree that looks promising.

    The ideal for LN wallets, submarine swaps, coin-joins, and all of the other cool stuff people are working on is that it is invisible to the user. Pay or receive and it should just work. People’s money should be secure, private, and unrestricted without hassle or high expense.

    HowTo: $150 for a compact Lightning node with a Bitcoin full node with an integrated display. Reminds me of the first PC prototypes created by hobbyists that later became an industry. Off-the-shelf fully validating, secure hardware, routing Lightning nodes can’t be too far away.

    Very cool quick-start for node by , based on my guide. Automated setup, integrated display for basic info, perfect for community events. 👨🏻‍🚀👍
