Connect The Connect The World EP022 | Elle Mouton | Lightning Labs Engineer | South Africa "Edward and Stef talk with Elle Mouton, an engineer at Lightning Labs from South Africa. She worked on a lot of projects, for example on Lightning Node Connect (LNC). That’s the communication logic that allows you to access your node from anywhere! Elle really breathes Bitcoin and Lightning! While working at a crypto exchange, she kept challenging herself to learn more about Bitcoin and Lightning: She build a website to demonstrate how LSATs (Lightning Service Authentication Tokens) could be used, attended the Chaincode Labs seminars, wrote some technical Lightning blog posts and started making more and more contributions to various Lightning Labs projects. Among a lot of other things, they talk about static invoices and about Aperture, a proxy you can use to create API points for your website without KYC!

He described how  to do Lightning using only the coming Segwit proposal. With Blockstream  they were the first Lightning implementation! They talk about Blockstream Aqua, Jade, Blockstream Green and  Blockstream AMP. And Rusty also covers all the advantages of Lightning  Offers / BOLT12. Implementing BLOT12 will take some time but we already  can philosophize what this will do for the adoption of Lightning and for  all those merchants out there!

Hakuna tells us about the journey he made with his lightning node HODLmeTight. For example, switching from his Raspberry to a NUC, which more than doubled routing and changed the HTLC response time from 1.9 seconds to 0.1! Running a Lightning Node is an ongoing process of studying data and making your Node more attractive for payment routes, which will eventually lead to more growth!

The Lightning papers | Gijs van Dam

Connect The World EP014 | Gijs Van Dam | Lightning Scientist | Malaysia "Edward and Stef talk with Lightning Scientist Gijs van Dam who wrote two papers about the Lightning Network. During his research on the balance disclosure attack, he found a way to remotely close down channels between other nodes. A large amount of channels, representing 17% of the entire capacity of the Lightning Network was potentially at risk! In his second paper he describes a possible solution to mitigate balance disclosure attacks by using extra payments of a random amount to obscure the actual amount. Of course we also talk about the use of Lightning, the adoption of the Lightning Network in Malaysia and about a possible future in which we trust peer nodes even more than a random node! Of course you want to know everything about this research! And do you think security is just as important as Gijs does? Then this episode is just for you!" - Jonī Kyasshu 🌍 Connect The World An English podcast where we guide you in the magic world of the Bitcoin Lightning Network. 🤝 Join Connect The World • Telegram Connect The World: https://t.me/connect_the_world • Telegram Rings of Fire: https://t.me/SatoshiRadioROF • Twitter Jonī Kyasshu: https://twitter.com/Joni_Kyasshu • Rings of Fire website: https://satoshiradio.nl/ringoffire 🎤 Links to the guest • https://twitter.com/gijswijs • https://www.gijsvandam.nl • https://github.com/gijswijs • https://www.researchgate.net/profile/... ⚡️ Links to papers • Improvements of the Balance Discovery Attack on Lightning Network Payment Channels https://eprint.iacr.org/2019/1385/201... • Hiding payments in lightning network with approximate differentially private payment channels https://authors.elsevier.com/a/1eXb7c... ⚡️ Links to news • Tweet SBW: https://twitter.com/SimpleBtcWallet/s... • Lightning Hackday: https://lightninghackday.fulmo.org • Updates LN gossip protocol: https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pip... • Article Breez Wallet: https://medium.com/breez-technology/l... 💰 Donation options: CTWBOT: https://t.me/ctwdonationbot SRROFBOT: https://t.me/srrofbot LN address: Joni_Kyasshu@LNTXBOT.com LN address: ⚡Joni_Kyasshu@LN.tips LNURL: LNURL1DP68GURN8GHJ7MRWW3UXYMM59E3K7MF0D3H82UNV9ACXZ7FLW4EK2UNFVS7NGV3NXYCRY8GST2Q ⏱ Timestamps 00:00 - Intro - “10 Questions” 02:20 - Part 1 - Connect The World community 06:14 - Statistics 08:14 - News 10:47 - Ring Of Fire (ROF) 18:46 - Lightning Notes  20:19 - Part 2 - Guest: Gijs Van Dam 26:53 - “21 minutes” 51:06 - Question from our last guest 54:53 - Outro  ⚠️ This content is NOT sponsored… #Bitcoin #LightningNetwork #LN #Connect_the_World
