@vanorton, @EmmaWu how about Lightning Network for BGL?
Up for this question.Hi guys, Lightning Network technically should be supported by BGL as we are continuously syncing with BTC codebase and this feature should be present 'out of the box'.
Currently there is a space in the blocks for your tx to get there comfortably, so no urgent need for Lightning on BGL, but technically it is there.
Anyone could set up a payment channel if they want to, why not.
because I saw some bridge posts having a bit of a problem, so I bought WBGL on pancakeswap, and it worked fine.
hope to buy more WBGL in this month.
I did not say that I could not buy WBGL from the bridge. I stated that I could not transfer my BGL coins from my wallet to the bridge no matter what RPC I used and there were plenty of wbgl coins available on bsc network. Why dont you read my posts one more time and this time do it carefully?
PS I used to be a great advocate of this project, just read my previous posts. However, I think that team should provide some updates concerning this project. I believe that Emma was talking about hiring a marketing person back in April of 2022, then there was some talk about a publication in a tier 1 journal, there were also some questions from the community regarding exchanges and lightning network that went unanswered... Dont get me wrong, this project is great and has a great potential but the team needs to provide some updates to the community if they want to keep this project flowing through the bearish times and keep trust from the community.
PS2 I still dont know if the problem with the bridge was fixed because right now there are no wbgl coins to swap through the bridge so I cant test it.
Thank you for the feedback and your support! The main problem is to find a proper person to take care of marketing, unfortunately the search still goes on (open for proposals here), but the activity is present nonetheless, check recent articles.
We are pretty consistent on providing updates at 2nd post in this thread, it's regularly updated, check it out:

Don't worry BGL is here to stay.
Dear Emma,
Thank you for your thoughtful response. I have been testing the bridge by sending BGL coins from my wallet via BSC network and it works fine. Thank you for fixing it.
I think BGL has a very bright future. I personally seeing this as an opportunity to buy a unique blockchain and a better version of BTC at such a ridiculously cheap price.
Do you still plan a publication in a tier 1 journal? Please let us know.
PS May I suggest something that would be potentially helpful? What of you or someone from the team will make either bi-weekly or a monthly brief ( a few sentences) report on BGL progress right here, on this thread? This would help BGL community to stay on the top of things. Please let us know.
PS 2 Best of luck with finding a suitable candidate for marketing.
