Mar 8 2022 • 52m

Show Notes

John Cantrell of L2 Technology and Spiral BTC grantee rejoins me on the show to talk about his latest work in making Bitcoin and the lightning network more accessible for the many. Sensei can be thought of as an LND or c-lightning but for LDK. We chat:

John’s journey since cracking Alistair Milne’s 12 word seed
How sensei works
Trade offs
How the child node concept works
What does it look like if 7.7B+ people onboarded to the lightning network?
