Rust Lightning network node

Another LN node? Why we need it?

The problem with the existing Lightning node implementations is their very limited extensibility for such things as:

  • future LN upgrades (channel factories, pay-to-ec-point, taproot),
  • protocols on top of LN (layer 3), like DLCs on LN or proposed Lightspeed payments, which require modification on the structure of the commitment transaction.

We will try to build a node that is highly modular and is ready for the future LN extensions. More information here: https://github.com/LNP-BP/lnpd

During the hackathon we will try to:

  • compose core architecture with non-blocking multithreading
  • add lightning network wire protocol
  • implement BOLT-9 (using rust-lightning it should be simple)
  • implement BOLT-1: do connection to other LN nodes + send/receive `connect`, `ping` & `ping` messages
  • (optionally) implement gossip protocol

Backup plugin for c-lightning

Backups are a major issue in the Lightning Protocol, given that any sort of dataloss could potentially result in loss of funds. This means that restoring an old backup of the database could result in the node broadcasting an old state, which is a cheat attempt in the protocol, which is punished.

The backup c-lightning plugin (https://github.com/lightningd/plugins/pull/97) implements the basic mechanisms to create a synchronous backup of any change to the database, and ensures that the backup stays in sync with the database. It does so in a generic way allowing to write backups to a variety of backends, but initially only implements a file-system based backup backend that is located on the same machine, but on a separate disk. Doing so already provides protection against data corruption on the primary disk. Potential future improvements could include:

  • Backup to Google services. Examples include:
    • GDrive
    • Google Docs - Sheets
    • Google Cloud Storage
  • Backup to Dropbox
  • Send backup data to a peer using the custommsg hook
  • Backups to a dedicated backup server

In the case of a dedicated backup server the plugin could also manage a subscription that is used to pay for the backup service.

User:cdecker is available for additional information and mentorship. See his Wiki page for contact information.

Adding your Project

Feel free to add a challenge yourself! The wiki is open to any Bolter (you'll figure out how to edit). If you have a GitHub Repo best practice is to put the label "hackathon" (yellow) next to issues you like people to join/help for the weekend. If you added a challenge please also get in touch on Mattermost for more information and collaboration.
