I'm actually CEO of Lightning Labs.
Lightning (Network) is the protocol. :)

Should have called it Stark Industries. Next thing you know the Marvel Universe comes to life in a couple of years.

Great interview and very well articulated. Are there any other exchanges currently collaborating? A lot of drama over the last 48h regarding coinbase and I want to made sure people know it's not just CB that's participating.
Edit: typo

Honest (probably dumb) question. If the company lightning labs goes out of business is lightning network gone then too? Would implementing lighting network make it centralized and easier to hack or get shut down by governments?

Great job, Elizabeth. It makes me genuinely happy to see such smart, articulate people translate complex protocols into easy-to-understand language. And on national television too!

If I'm not mistaken, channels in the lightning network is what makes things tick. I've also heard that people essentially become payment gateways as transactions make their way across the network. The criticism I read was that this could potentially become a KYC/AML issue in the future.
Do you feel that is a possibility?
