Discharged Payment Channels: Quantifying the Lightning Network's Resilience to Topology-Based Attacks [PDF]
2019 IEEE European Symposium on Security and Privacy Workshops (EuroS&PW), 2019 The Lightning Network is the most widely used payment channel network (PCN) to date, making it an attractive attack surface for adversaries. In this paper, we analyze the Lightning Network's PCN topology and investigate its resilience towards random ...
