Show Notes

"Only liquid, flowing capital generates a return. Unlike a bank account, capital on Lightning is productive when it is mobile, not at rest. That’s why flow is so essential. The more capital flows, the more liquid it is, the more incremental returns it generates." - Roy Sheinfeld Roy Sheinfeld of Breez Technology does some of the best conceptualizing of the Lightning network, its direction, & its challenges. He brings us another article today attempting to reconceptualize Lightning around the process of its operation (liquidity) rather than the purpose the process fulfills (payments network). The Guy's Take to follow discussing ideas of Lightning UI and the new tools being brought to the liquidity table.
