Bitcoin Lightning Network Progress All YOU Need to know about it
Don't worry guys all of this is just FOMO on BCH, as soon as segwit went active Bitcoin core started developing lightning network,in fact its in testing now.Don't get me wrong what BCH is doing is great because they are showing people how easy a decentralized way could be but once Lightning network comes out it'll be the real deal

Thanks for sharing. Is this Lightning Network another Bitcoin fork?
As far as i can tell it's still in testing , i believe the goal is to bring it onto the original bitcoin chain with consensus.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lightning_Network It doesn't change "Bitcoin" or its blockchain.
Currently running on a testnet
No, it's an off-chain solution. Doesn't change "Bitcoin" in any way. It works through segwit, which already exists. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lightning_Network

Hi, @jsonkidd, thanks. Is there an active forum, or chat where I can follow LN progress? I would like to monitor progress as it happens, if possible.
