Intro
Fairlayer is a two-layered blockchain capable of processing billion+ transaction per second. It implements the idea of Extended Lightning Network XLN.
Our goal is to keep it easy to be a full node on any laptop, no matter how many payments happen on the second layer. The node processes few publicly broadcasted onchain transactions (insurance rebalances, disputes etc). All the payments happen instantly offchain and can be enforced in onchain "court" when needed.
Installation
This repo contains generic code not attached to any network, by design. Use ./simulate to start local private network.
For existing public network, go to a validator website and find Install page (https://fairlayer.com/#install). This will use latest state and latest code automatically.
When you install on a server, pass -s/--silent to switch off opn that tries to open a browser with the wallet for you. The script will simply output the URL with auth_code you need to visit.
