Lightning
Software Releases & Project Updates
00:31:31 LND v0.16.3
Mempool Optimizations:
Optimized mempool management to lower the CPU usage.
Misc:
Re-encrypt/regenerate all macaroon DB root keys on ChangePassword/GenerateNewRootKey respectively.
Channel Link Bug Fix:
If we detect the remote link is inactive, we’ll now tear down the connection in addition to stopping the link’s statemachine. If we’re persistently connected with the peer, then this’ll force a reconnect, which may restart things and help avoid certain force close scenarios.
Consistent Contract Resolution:
If lnd decides to go to chain for an HTLC, it will now always ensure the HTLC is fully swept on the outgoing link. Prior logic would avoid sweeping due to negative yield, but combined with other inputs, the HTLC will usually be positive yield.
00:32:33 Bluewallet v6.4.5
ADD: support multiple accounts from Keystone HW wallet
00:33:02 Alby
alby-js-sdk v2.0.0
add Nostr Wallet Connect WebLN provider
add Alby webhook api methods
The implementation of webhooks facilitates immediate notifications to services regarding incoming and outgoing payments, enabling them to promptly respond to such events.
In the absence of webhooks, services are required to continuously query an account for new invoices and manage unprocessed ones, resulting in inefficiency and unnecessary complexity.
By integrating Alby accounts with podcasting services like Conshax, users can now benefit from an enhanced experience that allows real-time analysis of payments.
ZapSplitter by Alby
ZapSplitter is a simple showcase based on Dergigi’s idea of Lightning Prisms, which allows you to configure lightning splits for your Alby account.
Whenever you receive a payment, you can forward a percentage of it to support your favorite bitcoin, lightning or Nostr developers and content creators.
These payments can be forwarded by multiple users, making a cascading effect of payments. ZapSplitter plugs directly into your Alby account.
00:35:24 Fountain v0-7-0
New Podcast Library:
Queue, Episodes, Shows: Clips, Playlists
Sorting, Auto Delete, Mark As Played, Show Settings
Transcripts:
Fountain now supports the tag so you can read along as you listen
You can also search transcripts and find a specific point to start playing from. You can access them offline
Live (beta)
Fountain now supports the tag so you can participate in real time as the podcast is being recorded
Boosting and streaming sats works the same for livestreams as it does for regular episodes
Once a livestream has been scheduled, you will see a content card on the Show page that tells you when it will begin
When the livestream begins, we will send you a push notification that will take you to the livestream page in the app
During the livestream, you can pause/play the audio but will not be able to skip forward or back
When the livestream ends, the page and all of the comments will still be there, although you won’t be able to replay it from the start.

00:42:05 Scaling Lightning - A Testing Toolkit for the Lightning Network [Website/Github]
Goal: This initiative aims to collaboratively build a testing toolkit for the Lightning Network protocol and its applications to scale the network effectively.
Why: The testing toolkit is essential to address unknowns and untested assumptions regarding the Lightning Network’s reaction to various factors, benefiting developers, researchers, operators, and novices.
How: The initial focus is on creating a tool for quickly generating Lightning Nodes that can connect to either a public signet Lightning Network or a private Regtest Lightning Network, accommodating different LN implementations.

State compression with zero-knowledge validity proofs:
Robin Linus posted to the Bitcoin-Dev mailing list about a paper he co-authored with Lukas George about using validity proofs to reduce the amount of state that a client needs to download in order to trustlessly verify future operations in a system. They first apply their system to Bitcoin. They report having a prototype that proves the cumulative amount of proof of work in a chain of block headers and allows a client to verify that a particular block header is part of that chain. This allows a client that receives multiple proofs to determine which demonstrates the most proof of work
00:46:22 253
Proposal for managed joinpool protocol:
Burak Keceli suggests a new joinpool-style protocol called Ark. It allows Bitcoin owners to opt-in and use a counterparty as a co-signer for transactions within a specific timeframe.
Options for Bitcoin owners: Owners can withdraw their bitcoins onchain after the timelock expires or transfer them offchain to the counterparty before the timelock ends.
Counterparty’s role: The counterparty can broadcast an onchain transaction using their own funds. If the output of that transaction is used in the offchain transaction, it becomes invalid unless the onchain transaction confirms within a reasonable time.
Trustless atomic transfer: The counterparty waits to sign their onchain transaction until they receive the signed offchain transaction, enabling a trustless single-hop, single-direction atomic transfer from the owner to the counterparty.
Transaction relay over Nostr:
Joost Jager seeks feedback on Ben Carman’s proposal to use the Nostr protocol for relaying transactions on the Bitcoin-Dev mailing list.
The focus is on using Nostr for package relay, bundling ancestor transactions with low feerates with descendants that have higher fees. This enhances CPFP fee bumping and is being developed by Bitcoin Core.
The challenge is to ensure that new relay methods don’t create DoS vulnerabilities. Nostr relays offer alternative DoS protection options, like requiring a small payment for transaction relay.
Jager suggests that with this protection, package relay and other alternative transactions can be practically allowed, even if there is a risk of wasting some node resources due to malicious transactions.
00:47:39 254
Using MATT to replicate CTV and manage joinpools:
Johan Torås Halseth proposes using the COCV opcode from the MATT proposal to replicate the functionality of the OP_CHECKTEMPLATEVERIFY proposal. COCV would require a different opcode for each output in a transaction, unlike CTV which can commit to all outputs with a single opcode. While less efficient, COCV is still interesting due to its simplicity.
Halseth demonstrates the operation using Tapsim, a tool for debugging Bitcoin Tapscript transactions, aimed at aiding developers in script debugging and visualizing the VM state during script execution.
00:47:46 255
Discussion about the taproot annex:
Joost Jager requests a change in the Bitcoin Core transaction relay and mining policy to enable storing arbitrary data in the taproot annex field.
The annex field, an optional part of the witness data for taproot transactions, currently lacks a defined purpose but is reserved for future protocol upgrades.
Jager proposes two formats (1, 2) that could facilitate the addition of arbitrary data without hindering future standardization efforts bundled with a soft fork.
Draft BIP for silent payments:
Josie Baker and Ruben Somsen propose a draft BIP for silent payments on the Bitcoin-Dev mailing list.
Silent payments involve reusable payment codes that generate unique onchain addresses to prevent output linking and enhance user privacy.
The draft discusses the proposal’s advantages, tradeoffs, and implementation considerations.
