Bitcoin Magazine’s Aaron van Wirdum called the Lightning Network “probably the most highly anticipated technological innovation to be deployed on top of Bitcoin.” As the number of mainnet nodes and active channels continues to grow, his description seems accurate.

One of the coolest projects built on Lightning is the Zap wallet, created by Jack Mallers. For this coin pod, Jack joins me to discuss the dynamics of Lightning, his thoughts on software development, and the motivations behind creating Zap. We packed a lot of great content into a short episode, so enjoy.
