[Service Request]: Eclair #6

Open chrisguida opened 2 years ago

chrisguida commented 2 years ago

What kind of service is this?

Lightning

What does this service do?

It's one of the 3 original lightning network implementations. It plugs right into RTL and Zeus, and probably many more 3rd party programs now and in the coming years.

Here's my implementation (very rough, need to rebuild to input your bitcoin rpc password): https://github.com/chrisguida/eclair-wrapper

How does this service work?

You control it through an RPC interface, same as LND and CLN. It is written in Scala, a functional programming language that runs on the JVM.

What alternative services exist?

- LND
- CLN
- Sensei
- Possibly LN implementations (Electrum has one I think?)
- There will be more in the future

How does this align with our Mission?

How complex is this service?

Medium

How popular is this service?

Low Demand

This is pretty much done on alpha, needs automatic build/config to make it to beta.

I'm ok with packaging Eclair. Still TBD if we will maintain and support it on the official marketplace.
