summary | **Summary:**
- A network of two-party ledger entries can be created to facilitate payments. - Similar to routing packets on the internet, a path across this network can be found for transferring funds. - The nodes (intermediaries) along this path are not trusted, as: - Payment is enforced using a script that ensures atomicity. - Either the entire payment succeeds or fails. - Time-locks decrement to prevent double-spending. |
