Lightning Network Ecosystem

ACINQ is one of the main developers and operators of the Lightning Network, that settled on a combination of AWS Nitro Enclaves (an Isolated Compute Environment) and Ledger Nano (a signing device with a trusted display). This setup offers the best trade-off between security, flexibility, performance, and operational complexity for running a professional Lightning node.
