Reading Group 1 - BIP-118 and Eltoo

Join us for our first reading group! Unlike a socratic seminar, the purpose of a reading group is to deep dive on a single topic. We will still have a socratic discussion but participants are expected to study the reading materials before attending and bring discussion questions to drive understanding. Our first reading group will cover BIP-118 and Eltoo.

Eltoo is a layer 2 scaling proposal that greatly simplifies lightning network channel state management. Eltoo removes the need for penalty transactions which is expected to bring significant improvements to restore-from-backup processes, channel factories, and hardware signing devices.
