๐ Fresh CTW podcast! nostr:npub1ywc6w8qjnm6nlh8ct7qacg9qzl83aappkljkf8yyhnwa7eema4psjgw6nr and I chatted with Henrik Skogstrรธm from Torq (formaly LNCapital) about the game-changing updates in Torq & the new Scaling Lightning initiative! ๐๏ธโก๏ธ
๐ฅ Torq's latest release now allows users to buy channels from different LSPs with the open LSP spec, perfect for replenishing depleted channels! They've also beefed up security with HTLC firewalls to prevent expensive force closures & streamlined fund transfers between nodes.๐
๐ง With Scaling Lightning, they're designing to make life easier for devs, it leverages #Kubernetes to automate software deployment & testing. Say goodbye to tedious manual setups and inconsistent test environments! ๐ ๏ธ
๐ฏ Milestones are set! Goals include a unified client for all Lightning implementations and libraries in Go, Rust, and JavaScript. โ๏ธ
