Lightning Loop: Making Bitcoin Payments Easier to Receive Using Lightning The alpha launch of the first stage of Lightning Loop was announced by Lightning Labs earlier today via Twitter and an accompanying blog post. This initial phase of the update is being referred to as Loop Out. The idea is that users can offload Bitcoin from their Lightning Channel and back on to the main chain, freeing up the maximum channel capacity to receive additional payments, whilst keeping the channel open. Announcing the alpha release of Lightning Loop, a non-custodial service that makes it easier to receive #bitcoin on Lightning. With Loop, users can get inbound capacity and withdraw from Lightning while keeping channels open. \ud83d\udd01 Read more and try it out: https:\/\/t.co\/KoAXDm9JFl &mdash; Lightning Labs\u26a1\ufe0f\ud83c\udf60 (@lightning) March 20, 2019 To illustrate how Loop Out will make Lightning Network more useful for merchants, Lightning Labs used a Bitcoin-relevant analogy revolving around a pizza shop choosing to accept Bitcoin via the Lightning Network.
