✉️ Message by Antoine Riard on 24/05/2023: A new framework called “Staking Credentials” has been introduced to mitigate jamming attacks on the Lightning Network. The framework uses privacy-preserving credentials to lock liquidity along the forwarding path and can also be used to mitigate other liquidity time-value DoS attacks. The protocol relies on basic mechanisms of the Lightning Network and introduces new abstractions such as credentials, scarce assets, requester/issuer entities, and client/provider entities. The protocol phases involve the discovery of credentials and service policies, committing a scarce asset, and verifying the proof and credentials.
