This week Bitcoin.com reported on the recent demo of the Lightning Network being tested by Bitfury on Bitcoin’s mainnet. Now the bitcoin technology company Acinq has launched its Lightning Network-based Android wallet “Eclair” because the company believes Segwit “seems to be on the verge of activation.”

The bitcoin technology company Acinq wants to make the Lightning Network (LN) “user-friendly.” This week the startup launched its Eclair wallet for Android systems which is now available via Google Play.

Additionally, when Segwit gets activated the wallet will utilize the protocol for further LN functionality.

There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, which will follow the rules of the network no matter what miners do. Even if every miner decided to create 1000 bitcoins per block, full nodes would stick to the rules and reject those blocks.
