Foresight News: Fiber Network, CKB's Public Lightning Network, Launches Completed Test Version

Foresight News reports that Fiber Network, a public lightning network powered by CKB, a native solution within the BTC ecosystem, has launched a completed test version. This version includes multi-hop routing and monitoring services for developer testing. The mainnet launch of Fiber Network is planned for November.

Fiber Network is a next-generation public lightning network built on CKB and off-chain channels. It offers fast, low-cost, and decentralized multi-currency payments and peer-to-peer transactions. The official Fiber Network website is now live. Earlier in September, Fiber Network launched a basic version enabling channel creation, update, and closure between two nodes, supporting arbitrary RGB++ Coin channels. It can also facilitate cross-chain interoperability with the Bitcoin Lightning Network.
