Cryptocurrencies with SegWit and LN-style off-chain payment solutions

[d5000]

For the record: I will only add coins to the OP that enable Segwit in mainnet. Testnet doesn't count. @numizmat & @First.Bitcoins: Please leave a message here when it's enabled on ArtByte's mainnet, otherwise I won't see it.

As there are several Segwit coins now - even Bitcoin has now locked in Segwit -  I will also update the thread less frequently.

Myriad a bit later than some others, but should be joining the party soon:

Blackcoin would be an interesting addition as it is one of the older Proof of Stake coins. But the Segwit-enabling version seems to be still in development, so I will not add it until the signalling period starts hard fork date is known and 0.15 released (I just saw it's a hardfork and so there will be no signalling period).

Idem - is still in development. You can reply to this thread again when the signalling period began and I'll add it.

CREA has working SegWit on mainnnet

please take a look: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1809920.msg26336461#msg26336461

DevTeam plan implement LN and Atomic Swap in near future.

BTX got segwit

Yep, it's there from the start (Bitcore). Or is there another BTX altcoin I am missing?

PS: CREA was already added.

[Cannings]

myriadcoin has acheived consensus for segwit which will lock in within the next 24 hours and complete early in the AM on 13th Jan

Some hit and some miss but sure SegWit is still a good feature for the cryptocurrency.

Myriad Coin is about the get Segwit Activated! Please add it to your list!!!!!

We have 634 blocks left to go which based on average of 78 seconds per block is 13 hours 44 minutes 12 seconds away at 13/01/2018 22:51:25 UTC

Segwit transaction is really cheap and fast. Litecoin etal have implemented segwit and you can also make segwit transaction on bitcoin if the address you are sending from is segwit. I believe segwit and LN will make bitcoin scale better when they are implemented.

Done.

New rules to get added:

If you want a coin to get added, please provide me:
- the name of the coin, obviously
- the currently active Bitcointalk thread
- the date (month is ok) when Segwit was activated or has been "locked in"; if it has been locked in provide me the approximate activation date.

I will add only coins where it is already activated or locked in. No more coins will be added to "Planned" or "Signalling".

Myriad activated SegWit on 13 Jan 2018. Thank you.

Myriad is not to be messed with.  Heads up!

Bitsend Segwit is still online.

Not to mention BitCore!

isn't dogecoin segwit / LN compatible (if updated). Is it any process to include it?

Komodo KMD : Not like a BTC LN

Will Komodo be Lightning Network compatible?

Our variation of Lightning Network technology, CHIPS, is in active development.

When finished, CHIPS will provide similar micropayment channels and features, comparable to Bitcoin's proposed Lightning Network.

Just saw this post now, and I had no idea about all those coins that already had segwit and were working on off-chain scalability solutions like the lightning network. I new about litecoin of course, since it kind of serves like a test bed for bitcoin, and got segwit activated a long time before bitcoin, but I definitely didn't knew about all the others.

It was curious to see that Eclair was working on lightning for other coins, since I believe they are also one of the teams that are developing lightning network on BTC as well.

Just a question though: Why not include Bitcoin on the Lightning Network (mainnet testing) list?
Isn't Blockstream testing on the mainnet as well?

You are totally right, I just have added BTC. It's not only Blockstream, there are enthusiasts of different groups as well. It is however still not recommended for everyday use and there seem to be still security problems which made some of the testers lose money.

Both seem to be in early planning stages and at last Decred - which is a major rewrite of Bitcoin's code - would probably use other means than Segwit to achieve the necessary malleability fix for LN. So for now, I'll not add them.

Komodo itself also seems to not plan to use Segwit, only its platform's "sub-currency" Chips.

Decred is built by the guys who wrote BTC suite, btcd daemon and tools, the golang implementation for bitcoin that one one of the lightning implementations relies on, lnd I think. They don't have Segwit, but they have a malleability fix in place since launch, and have or will shortly have lightning working on their network. See top comment here:

https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.reddit.com/r/decred/comments/7dsx99/does_decred_has_segwit/

Also, I would say Bitcoin shouldn't be mentioned based on the fact that the thread title specifies altcoin, which BTC clearly is not.
