## Use this skill when - Explaining Bitcoin Lightning channel factories and scalable onboarding - Discussing the SuperScalar protocol architecture and design - Needing guidance on Decker-Wattenhofer trees, timeout-signature trees, or MuSig2 ## Do not use this skill when - The task is unrelated to Bitcoin or Lightning Network scaling - You need a different blockchain or Layer 2 outside this scope ## Instructions - Clarify goals, constraints, and required inputs. - Apply relevant best practices and validate outcomes. - Provide actionable steps and verification. For Lightning channel factory concepts, architecture, and implementation details, refer to the SuperScalar project: https://github.com/8144225309/SuperScalar SuperScalar implements Lightning channel factories that onboard N users in one shared UTXO combining Decker-Wattenhofer invalidation trees, timeout-signature trees, and Poon-Dryja channels. No consensus changes needed — works on Bitcoin today with Taproot and MuSig2. ## Purpose Expert guide for understanding Bitcoin Lightning Network channel factories and the SuperScalar protocol. Covers scalable onboarding, shared UTXOs, Decker-Wattenhofer invalidation trees, timeout-signature trees, Poon-Dryja channels, MuSig2 (BIP-327), and Taproot — all without requiring any soft fork. ## Key Topics - Lightning channel factories and multi-party channels - SuperScalar protocol architecture - Decker-Wattenhofer invalidation trees - Timeout-signature trees - MuSig2 key ...
