闪电网络第一年的拓扑演变及其对核心价值的影响

The evolution of Lightning Network's Topology during its first year and the influence over its core values

Stefano Martinazzi

摘要:

闪电网络(LN)在Bitcoi的主网上推出已经整整一年了。LN被认为是比特币几个弱点的解决方案,例如每秒交易数量难以扩展,以及相对少量的交易费用昂贵。LN基于通过在区块链上发布交易来打开和关闭的微通道网络,并且由于多跳框架,它们之间能够进行交互。在这项工作中,我从拓扑学的角度分析了LN的演变,并试图了解它如何影响比特币的一些历史核心基础,例如对攻击和失败的弹性以及用户的匿名性。我试图回答的另一个问题是,LN拓扑结构的演变是否会使其同步更容易。

英文摘要:

It is now a whole year since Lightning Network (LN) has been launched on the Bitcoi's mainnet. LN has been claimed as the solution for several of Bitcoin's weaknesses such as its difficulty to scale in number of transactions per second and its expensiveness for relative small amount exchanged. LN is based upon a network of micro-channels opened and closed by issuing transactions on the Blockchain and capable to interact among themselves thanks to the Multi-hop framework. In this work I analysed the evolution of LN from its topological point of view and tried to understand how it impacts over some of Bitcoin's historical core foundamentals such as the resilience against attacks and failures and the user's anonymity. Another question I have tried to answer is whether the evolution of LN's topology will make its synchronization easier.
