Specifically non&#xA;interactive channels solve this problem of one sided opens, where the other&#xA;party is passive/offline.&#xA;&#xA;&#xA;On Mon, Jan 13, 2020, 12:42 PM Joachim Strömbergson via bitcoin-dev &lt;&#xA;bitcoin-dev at lists.linuxfoundation.org&gt; wrote:&#xA;&#xA;&gt; &gt; Instead of using sidechains, just use channel factories.&#xA;&gt;&#xA;&gt; I am not familiar enough with the latest advancements in this field. Is it&#xA;&gt; possible using LN/channel factories to achieve off-line-like participation&#xA;&gt; user experience without previous registration with any kind of gateway&#xA;&gt; provider? For example, can you go online, join the network [somehow&#xA;&gt; instantly], generate address/invoice and then put it somewhere for others&#xA;&gt; to later use it when you are off-line? Can you also participate while being&#xA;&gt; off-line for very long periods of time without relying on third party&#xA;&gt; providers to secure your channels? If not, is using sidechains really&#xA;&gt; equally replaceable with LN/CF constructions?&#xA;&gt;&#xA;-------------- next part --------------&#xA;An HTML attachment was scrubbed...&#xA;URL: &lt;http://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pipermail/bitcoin-dev/attachments/20200113/87716194/attachment.html&gt;</html></oembed>
