Editorial reading note
The MIT OCW index for Cryptocurrency Engineering and Design (Spring 2018) lists Lecture 13: Payment Channels and Lightning Network.
A learning lead on on-chain constraints and off-chain interaction. Organize questions by channel participant and interaction stage, then check which conditions require on-chain handling while watching. We have not watched protocol demonstrations, supply no invented flow and infer no actual capacity, speed or security result.
