The solution to liquidity deficiency on Lightning Network (LN), Lightning Pool has launched an open alpha. Previously, LN node operators were struggling with keeping channels on the network liquid and had to rely on off-chain means to deal with it. Lightning Pool turns the process into an automated marketplace, making it trustless and seamless. It is already considered a huge step towards making LN more accessible, as the solution still struggles to find widespread adoption.

Cryptocurrency News from Twitter

Last weekend, Halloween was celebrated, and Brad Mills got an idea: what if instead of candy he gave Bitcoin cards to trick-or-treaters? The video of the kids’ reactions instantly went viral in Crypto Twitter.

Now that the preliminary results are becoming more clear, here is a thread from Vitalik Buterin on how the prediction markets could have been so different from the statistics. As he fairly notices, prediction markets on blockchain are way more accessible than four years ago!

The rise of Bitcoin has been the focus of all cryptocurrency news this week, but will it fall again? Mike Novogratz doesn’t think so. The long-term implication of the Fed continuing to issue USD will in the end be beneficial to Bitcoin, and the investor even goes as far as to say that the “adoption Rubicon has been crossed” — meaning that the process cannot be stopped.

Influencer of the Week

This time, our recommended pick for the influencer is The Crypto Monk. His primary type of content is technical analysis of crypto charts with occasional insights into stocks. His jokes and occasional personal tweets, though, are also worth seeing.
