According to Foresight News, the public Lightning Network protocol, Fiber Network, developed by BTC ecosystem native solution CKB, has launched a comprehensive test version. This version has achieved multi-hop routing and monitoring services, allowing developers to conduct self-testing. The mainnet for Fiber Network is scheduled to go live in November.
Fiber Network is a next-generation public Lightning Network based on CKB and off-chain channels. It offers fast, low-cost, decentralized multi-currency payments and peer-to-peer transactions. The Fiber Network official website is now live. Earlier, in early September, Fiber Network launched its basic version, which supports channel creation, updates, and closures between two nodes. It also supports the establishment of any RGB++ Coin channel and cross-chain interoperability with the Bitcoin Lightning Network.
