price range $BTC hovered near the $80,000 mark earlier in the day before dipping into the high-$78,000 range. What do u guys think Goes lower from here? Feelsbadman🙄 .
Bitcoin holds above $80,000 as Zcash jumps 12% in post-election crypto rebound Ether rose 8% as falling oil prices and a weaker dollar helped markets recover, even as traders weighed a tougher path for U.S. crypto legislation. $BTC $ZEC
Don't rush to take a short position. There might be a pullback when it reaches the painted area. If a pullback occurs, I also want to take a long position; I couldn't enter a long trade right now. $BTC
WHEN MIGHT AN ON-CHAIN TRANSACTION BECOME NECESSARY?
Not every failed Lightning payment requires an on-chain Bitcoin transaction.
When both channel participants remain connected and the channel is operating normally, they can generally resolve HTLCs through Lightning channel messages.
However, if a channel is force-closed while an HTLC remains unresolved, the relevant HTLC conditions may need to be enforced through Bitcoin transactions.
For example, an HTLC timeout transaction may be used when the applicable expiry condition has been reached.
This is one reason Lightning channels are backed by Bitcoin’s base layer.
Lightning handles payments off-chain, but Bitcoin provides the underlying settlement and enforcement system. $BTC
