The latest version of the BIP doesn't use inversion, but does use bitshifts. It also uncovered a bug in the test scripts: the block timestamps creep forward when we generate large numbers of blocks (UpdateTime insists it be > GetMedianTimePast() so it's valid). We need to take this into account when waiting for the median to move (reduced it from 60 to 30 seconds, since that adds about 14 seconds). Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
Strawman protocol for lightning channels.
The wire protocol is documented in lightning.proto (a protobuf definition file).
There are command line utilities to create and process various packets in test-cli.
It requires features not currently in bitcoin, so it runs on top of the sidechain Elements Alpha
This is very much a testbed and work in progress; expect All The Things to change, all the time.
Cheers,
Rusty.
