Duke's Bitcoin Bank (plus Lightning Payments :D)
Speaker: Chris Jackson
Lets explore Spring Boot implementation managing multi-user access and Lightning payments on the Bitcoin network. We will give an architectural overview of Spring Boot connectivity to the Bitcoin Network, how user specific accounts and payments can be managed and with user connectivity via a React SPA to make and receive lightning payments (QR/NFC). The proposal is targeted for use by enterprises / financial services providers looking to offer custodial Bitcoin payment services using Open Source software. During this talk Chris share a demonstration of implementation.
Java Virtual Threads
Speaker: Asif Nazir
In this talk Asif will explore Java Virtual Threads, introduced under JEP 444, previewed in Java 19 as part of Project Loom and finalised in Java 21. The presentation will cover the history of Java's threading model, including green threads and OS threads. Virtual Threads marks a new era allowing the Java runtime to efficiently manage millions of lightweight threads, reducing complexity and resource cost, especially in containerised applications.
