Goddamit, once again superb work, sir!

Update request: you can make testnet instant swaps with bitcoin for different altcoins here: http://zigzag.bitlum.io/[1] it's as much fun as with Starblocks or similar! Even more so, cause you get to use testnets of some different altcoins :)

1: http://zigzag.bitlum.io/

pro tip: if you wanna try swap for LTC f.ex., but too lazy to get a LTC testnet wallet, just get a random testnet receiving address by googling "[altcoin name] + testnet blockexplorer" and use one of the addresses there as your receiving address :)

What I am missing is the section about "risks, challenges and problems" with LN.

Looks like some happy propaganda in the current state.

Also, pinging the good people mentioned in the OP so they're aware of the thread here, cause I think pinging from the OP doesn't work:
