Guy Swann of Bitcoin Audible and the Shitcoin Insider comes on the podcast to give the ins and outs of the Lightning Network, the prime off-chain scaling solution for Bitcoin. We go into how the network itself works, what challenges it must overcome, and what new innovations have appeared since its inception that make it easier to use. We also go into the long-term why of scaling, and the trade-offs between on-chain and off-chain transactions.
