Welcome to Lampo: A New Dawn in Lightning Node Technology

Hello to the Lightning and Bitcoin communities! We're thrilled to introduce *Lampo*, our open-source lightning node implementation crafted meticulously in Rust. As technology enthusiasts deeply entrenched in the world of Bitcoin and its associated technologies, we noticed a space for an alternative. A space for something robust, transparent, and community-driven. That’s where Lampo steps in.

Why Lampo?

While there are renowned lightning implementations like core lightning, lnd, and eclair, none resonated with our vision for an open-source lightning node built upon the [ldk](https://github.com/lightningdevkit/rust-lightning)..) Our goal is to offer a platform that's not just driven by business needs but also by genuine innovation and community feedback.

Unique Features

Lampo boasts features like swappable APIs, on-chain data sources, and a flexible wallet system. And yes, we’re close to be future-ready!

Plans are already underway to support Fedimint, LSP, and VLS. Our dedication towards creating a powerful architecture will ensure Lampo serves all the needs of the modern lightning network community.
