Announcing LayerTree: a new tree-based scaling solution for Bitcoin that permits O(1), independent of the number of users in the system: xitter.cf/lightning/status/21108…
A single UTXO can hold the balance of millions of users as an off-chain Merkle-sum tree.
Transaction introspection techniques permit batched exit from the system in a single transaction w/o any pre-signing: layertree.tech
Introducing LayerTree, a non-custodial scaling solution on bitcoin that connects to Lightning.
Using covenants, one UXTO can be shared by a million users. Any user can leave at any time in a single transaction. Users don't need to be online to receive. Funds never time out.
LayerTree is the next step in bringing bitcoin to billions.

Kevin Cai @ProofOfCash giving us more info on LLM’s than we can possibility absorb this early in the morning @tabconf ☕ But wait… there’s more, he’s about to dive into L402’s!
Andras retweeted
I bribed people to interact with me during my Wavelength @tabconf workshop by giving them stickers.
I still got some. Come find me if you want one!
Andras retweeted
looking forward to this!
I think the schemes that underpin this new design are actually more important than the design itself
the building blocks can be used to make other new more exciting systems
fully anticipate fresh new ideation days after the talk

One of my favorite Terminal launches ever. Liquidity management is complex and unintuitive. The right move depends entirely on your node.
Node Assistant on Terminal is an expert advisor grounded in your node’s real data, obfuscated in your browser before it leaves your device.
The age of the agentic Lightning node starts today. 🌅⚡🤖
Lightning Terminal has a new AI assistant that answers questions from your node's own data with privacy built in.
Ask about bitcoin liquidity, fees, or capital allocation. Get immediate insights to optimize your node.

LND v0.21.4-beta and v0.20.5-beta are out 🚀
Maintenance releases with key bug fixes, incl. one for HTLCs that could be left pending and trigger unnecessary force closes.
All node operators are encouraged to upgrade.

Muse. Instinct. Grok Bot. dots.
Every personal agent now gets its own computer to act on behalf of its human.
When everyone has an agent making 1,000 requests a day, a web built for humans will break.
Agents will pay per request.

Shared UTXO wallets can be very powerful for AI workflows because you can scope the spend logically by super cheaply making very small wallets that are LN connected. That way when you get an AI oopsie the scope of the financial damage can’t possibly be more than the wallet size.

We're hiring a leader in Business Development!
Want to work with a team of brilliant devs bringing bitcoin to billions? Passionate about financial freedom and decentralization?
Can you work autonomously to ensure Lightning is adopted as global, programmable money? Do you excel at designing and implementing business strategies across AI, bitcoin, fintech, infra?

I could do this all day...
I'm paying with lightning, but what is getting deposited is USDT on Bitcoin. Withdraw to any lightning address and what they receive is bitcoin again.
This is the experience that is enabled by Bitcoin + Lightning + Taproot Assets + @ambosstech

It’s scary to me when people use custodial swaps services for LN to get inbound liquidity rather than smart contract submarine swaps. Every time you are rolling the dice on a custodian going bust. Even if you get in and out quickly, there’s still a potential 100% loss on the line

We asked an AI coding agent to build a self-custodial Bitcoin & Lightning wallet web app using the Wavelength SDK ⚡
No node. No liquidity to mange. Users hold their own keys. From prompt to first payment in 10 mins. This is what building with the Wavelength SDK looks like.
RC testing for the minor release is over, final release is out: github.com/lightningnetwork/…

ICYMI Wavelength v0.1.1 is available!
lots of great stability+reliability bug fixes: github.com/lightninglabs/wav…
also ships with discounted/free auto refresh
v0.1.2 🔜
Andras retweeted
We want to talk to anyone who has used Lightning Terminal to manage their node within the past year!
These user interviews will help improve Lightning Terminal UX. Specifically, we’d love feedback from any node operators who have used the AI assistant flows.
DMs are open!

What if adding Bitcoin and Lightning payments to your app was actually... easy? 👀
Wavelength makes it happen. Self-custodial payments where users always hold their keys, with no node or liquidity management required. From consumer apps to AI agent payments, Wavelength is how Bitcoin and Lightning come to life in your app.
