Good Day everybody

I present you a implementation for a Lightning Network Payment-Hub +
Client. Everything is written in Java and can be accessed on

http://thunder.network

I made some changes to the channel design to have everything working
on the current Blockchain, without the need for softforks. Due to
that, the network is no longer no-trust, but low-trust. This will
change with the upcoming new OP_CODES.

The provided wallet is just a prototype, I will focus on building a
potent backend in the future. There are many wallets out there
already, it will be much more useful if those add these
functionalities.

Using such a payment network will help to greatly release the pressure
in the blocksize-debate. Furthermore, as there are less everyday
payments on the blockchain, there is more space for important
transactions of higher value.

I'm sure there is a lot I'm missing to explain. I'm also around in
most IRC-Channels ( mjerr ).
