Cardano disclosed its Cardano Lightning state channel system on Aug. 24, outlining a payment design modeled on the Bitcoin Lightning Network and built natively on the extended unspent transaction output, or eUTXO, model. The project is now in a pre-production deployment stage, according to the update cited by Techub News.
The system uses a forked LDK node and a Rust relay, while liquidity is managed through smart contracts. Cardano said the setup is intended to support fast, low-fee payments. Through the Konduit protocol, users can pay with ADA while merchants receive native Bitcoin, without wrapped tokens or intermediaries.
The team also said the eUTXO model has advantages over account-based chains in security and routing. The item was attributed to CryptoBriefing in the source material.
