Hello to the Lightning and Bitcoin communities!
We're thrilled to introduce Lampo, our open-source lightning node implementation crafted meticulously in Rust. As technology enthusiasts deeply entrenched in the world of Bitcoin and its associated technologies, we noticed a space for an alternative. A space for something robust, transparent, and community-driven. That’s where Lampo steps in.
Why Lampo?
While there are renowned lightning implementations like core lightning, lnd, and eclair, none resonated with our vision for an open-source lightning node built upon the ldk. Our goal is to offer a platform that's not just driven by business needs but also by genuine innovation and community feedback.
Unique Features
Lampo boasts features like swappable APIs, on-chain data sources, and a flexible wallet system. And yes, we’re future-ready! Plans are already underway to support Fedimint, LSP, and VLS. Our dedication towards creating a powerful architecture will ensure Lampo serves all the needs of the modern lightning network community.
