Title: Will Electrum support Lightning Network transactions?
Post by: RicardoReis on February 23, 2018, 03:48:16 PM
Hello, will the Electrum Wallet compatible with Lightning Network in the future?
I want to know if it would be possible to make a transaction on LN using Electum. Or LN is not the goal of Electrum?

I believe that they will be supporting it by looking at this[1][2]. Even If they don't, We already have plenty of wallets under development like Zap wallet, Eclair etc.
