LNMesh

Introduction

In this workshop, we implement a local Lightning Network (LN) cluster of several nodes which may continue to operate and process transactions offline for a period if internet connectivity is lost.

System Info

This implementation was done using several Raspberry Pi 4 model B units, system details as follows:

  • System - Raspberry Pi OS
  • Architecture: 64-bit OS
  • Kernel Version: 5.15.61
  • Debian Version: 11 (bullseye)

Two types of underlying IP networks were used during testing (click for individual details):

  1. IP-over-Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) network (Star topology, inflexible)
  2. Ad-hoc Wi-Fi mesh network (Mesh topology, flexible)

LN channels are then established on top of this IP connectivity.
