A statistical study over Europe of the relative locations of lightning and associated energetic burst of electrons from the radiation belt [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2016 The DEMETER (Detection of Electro-Magnetic Emissions Transmitted from Earthquake Regions) spacecraft detects short bursts of lightning-induced electron precipitation (LEP) simultaneously with newly injected upgoing whistlers. The LEP occurs within <

Mass Exit Attacks on the Lightning Network
2023 IEEE International Conference on Blockchain and Cryptocurrency (ICBC), 2023 The Lightning Network (LN) has enjoyed rapid growth over recent years, and has become the most popular scaling solution for the Bitcoin blockchain. The security of the LN relies on the ability of the nodes to close a channel by settling their balances, which requires confirming a transaction on the Bitcoin blockchain within a pre-agreed time period. We

An Empirical Analysis of Privacy in the Lightning Network [PDF]
, 2021 Payment channel networks, and the Lightning Network in particular, seem to offer a solution to the lack of scalability and privacy offered by Bitcoin and other blockchain-based cryptocurrencies. Previous research has focused on the scalability, availability, and crypto-economics of the Lightning Network, but relatively little attention has been paid to

Ant Routing scalability for the Lightning Network
CoRR, 2020 The ambition of the Lightning Network is to provide a second layer to the Bitcoin network to enable transactions confirmed instantly, securely and anonymously with a world scale capacity using a decentralized protocol. Some of the current propositions and implementations present some difficulties in anonymity, scaling and decentalization.

Time-Dilation Attacks on the Lightning Network
Cryptoeconomic Systems, 2021 Lightning Network (LN) is a widely-used network of payment channels enabling faster and cheaper Bitcoin transactions. In this paper, we outline three ways an attacker can steal funds from honest LN users. The attacks require dilating the time for victims to become aware of new blocks by eclipsing (isolating) victims from the network and delaying block ...
