A team of developers formed during @buidler_fest, dedicated to delivering a real payment solution to Cardano.
3 proposals this time: Calvus, Cirrus & Stratus.
🛠 While progress on the Cardano Lightning roadmap has been slower than planned, our commitment hasn’t wavered. This is a marathon, not a sprint, and 2025 is the year to pick up the pace.

🎉 Congrats to all who succeeded in F13! 🎉
🚀 While Cardano Lightning didn’t make it this time, we’re far from done. We’ll be back! 🤖
⚡️ Meanwhile, our work on the protocol continues, with more updates in January⚡️
🎄 And of course, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! 🎄

@AlfonsoSpencer9 Lightning can definitely be one of the connecting approaches - it has atomic HTLC composition and can bridge other L2s and to other L1s (we are BLN compatible).
Some extra work is required on our side to support L2s and ensure safe L1 settlement (e.g., thread token transfer etc.)
⚡ Get ready for lightning-powered coffee with @Waalge and @TomRybarczyk.
📢 Join us on Cardano over Coffee (@coc_space) tomorrow at 15:35 UTC!
☕ Let’s brew up some instant, secure, and scalable ideas together!

@Star_Forge_Pool We’re designing the core protocol(s) and preparing to work on the nodes.
Calvus offers income streams for liquidity providers routing payments, while the other two focus on unique use cases:

Future edge nodes may enable cross-payments with BLN as well.

@elraulito We want to make Cardano Lightning real:

BTW, at the HTLC level, it will be fully BLN compatible:

It means we can have edge nodes offering atomic cross-swaps or cross-payments in the future.

@T_C_Simpson_1 @CardanoSpot We have a relatively well-documented project, which is in the concept phase, on GitHub: https://t.co/waLKOW4k7l
We also have a blog here: https://t.co/T5eCPzk6X2
Unfortunately, we’re not the best at marketing, so we don’t have any content on YouTube yet. ;-)
