Giacomo Zucco talking about RGB/Spectrum/Storm (L3) - LNJ07
This is the seventh episode of the Lightning Junkies podcast. In this episode, we have Giacomo Zucco talking about RGB, Spectrum, and Storm. RGB is a protocol to create additional layers on top of other networks/protocols like Bitcoin, the Lightning Network, sidechains, and state channels. Spectrum is an extension to RGB to allow liquidity functions on top of the Lightning Network. Storm is a file storage and messaging protocol on top of the Lightning Network. These protocols allow for Layer 3 functionality.
Thanks to Paralelni Polis for letting us use their Decentruck to record the podcast at the Lightning Network conference.
We discuss:
* RGB
* Spectrum
* Storm
* Potential Issues with "Top Heaviness"
* Other possible issues with Layer 3
* Issues with Lightning Network
* Reasons to be excited by the Lightning Network
* Favorite Talks at the Lightning Network Conference
* Is Giacomo still a toxic maximalist?
