Why #Bitcoin Second Layers Failed While $ETH L2s Boom. "I'm halting my involvement with the development of the lightning network and its implementations, including coordinating the handling of security issues at the protocol level." Developer of #LightningNetworks (LNs), Antoine Riard, stated as much after concluding from a mailing group debate that there is a "hard dilemma." "I think this new class of replacement cycling attacks puts lightning in a very perilous position, where only a sustainable fix can happen at the base-layer, e.g adding a memory-intensive history of all-seen transactions or some consensus upgrade," Riard stated. Since it is now possible to double spend on LN due to #vulnerabilities , he will be concentrating on developing Bitcoin Core.
