How can lightning users secure themselves even further? Just like how hardware wallets and secure elements can help secure your cold storage coins, Validating Lightning Signer (VLS) is a project aiming to help improve the way lightning security works. In this conversation with project co-founder Ken Sedgwick, we chat:

  • Why VLS is needed
  • How VLS works
  • Implementing part of the lightning state machine
  • What rules are covered? 
  • What lightning implementations are supported? 
  • The impact of lightning protocol changes
  • Interactions with watchtowers? 
  • How you can get involved
