How LN takes advantage of offchain is through Multisig wallets. These wallets were originally built to create added security for a fund of money by needing multiple signatures (or passwords) to open the wallet- but the LN's offchain solution uses this concept to allow multiple\u00a0users to put funds into the wallet and trade <strong>within<\/strong> the wallet. When trading\u00a0within the wallet, the transactions happen instantly.<\/p>\n<p>Users will still need to make an initial transaction from Bitcoin's main blockchain to the LN wallet, but once it is there the transactions within that wallet will happen at lightning speeds.<\/p>\n<p>These megawallets\u00a0will alleviate much of the congestion currently happening on the blockchain. If certain companies are constantly doing business with one another, they can easily\u00a0make these transactions happen offchain with the Lightning Network.<\/p>\n<p>You may be thinking this like a great way to get big business off the main chain, but can consumers and everyday transactions also take advantage of the Lightning Network?<\/p>\n<p>According to the Six Degrees of Separation, we are all much more connected than we can imagine. If I want to send a payment to Bob, but don't have a payment channel with Bob, but I do with Alice and Bob also has one with Alice, then the transaction will still work.<\/p>\n<p>These LN\u00a0wallets are able to communicate with each other and can hop between connecting channels to arrive at its destination.<\/p>\n<p>Here's a great video of how it all works too ( 8:13)<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/MpfvhiqFw7A?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" gesture=\"media\" allow=\"encrypted-media\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Three developer teams are independently working on the Lightning solution as of now:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/elementsproject.org\/\">Elements Projec<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/lightning.engineering\/\">Lightning Labs<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/acinq.co\/\">ACINQ<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>ACINQ has already started a testnet\u00a0solution for the age-old\u00a0question, &#8220;Yeah it looks cool, but can I buy a <a href=\"https:\/\/starblocks.acinq.co\/#\/\">coffee<\/a> with Bitcoin?&#8221; Wallet solutions are also on their way, and if you want to see a great in-depth\u00a0explanation of how the LN wallets work, check out my <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoinsider.21mil.com\/interview-mallers-founder-zap-lightning-network-wallet\/\">interview<\/a> with Jack Mallers and his open source LN wallet, ZAP.<\/p>\n<h2>Implementation is Coming<\/h2>\n<p>The release of RC1 allows developers to begin testing and playing around with the LN and dApps.

The <a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/dianerey\/lnsim\">simulator<\/a> works and this is what she had to say about the results:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>We have given a structure for a lightning network with 10 million users which has no centralized hubs. Indeed each user has exactly the same connectivity and funding as all other users. While this is not how a lightning network would be expected to evolve in a real world scenario, it does show that it is technically possible to have such a network. In addition we have given code to simulate making payments in the network. A relatively short run (attempting 400,000 payments) shows that payments succeed 99% of the time, failing more often for micropayments than larger payments.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>It's going to be hard to understand whether LN really does compromise decentralization until it is fully implemented, but it's great to see that the Lightning Network is on schedule and that these teams working on have been successful in getting it to work on the blockchain.
