The Lightning Network is a revolutionary layer built on top of Bitcoin, enabling instant, low-fee, off-chain transactions. I can send payments to merchants across the globe in a fraction of a second, bypassing the limitations of on-chain confirmation times. But with speed comes a subtle risk: if I ever go offline, a malicious counterparty could try to broadcast an outdated channel state to steal funds.
This is where watchtowers come into play. Watchtowers are like vigilant guardians of the Lightning Network. They monitor channels for fraudulent attempts and ensure that the correct transaction state is enforced on the blockchain. Even if I'm away from my device, watchtowers silently act in my favor, protecting my funds from double-spends, cheating attempts, or malicious closures.
