# Lightning Poll

![Lightning Poll screenshot from Carla's "Hacking HODL Invoice" Medium Post](../.gitbook/assets/lightningpoll.png)

**What inspired you to build Lightning Poll?**

I think that the Lightning Network is fascinating because it addresses some of the pain points associated with on chain transactions, without compromising the trustless nature of Bitcoin. The most apparent strength of the Lightning Network is micropayments, as many of the projects at Boltathon illustrated. I have been following the HODL invoices pull request for a while, because I think that the ease of refund they provide is another significant on chain pain point which lightning addresses. Pairing micropayments and easy refunds is exciting to me because it opens up possibilities which were previously unfeasible, and I wanted to explore ways in which this functionality could be used.

I have been accepted into the Chaincode Bitcoin and Lightning Summer Residency, where we will have the opportunity to work on mentored projects contributing to Bitcoin Core or LND. I am going to look into extracting the signer interface from LND so that your private keys can sit separately from your LND node, which I am very excited about.

# Local Lightning

![Locallightning.net](../.gitbook/assets/local-lightning.png)

**What inspired your team to work on Local Lightning?**

At the time of the hackathon, I wasn't sure what to build. I spent a couple hours after hearing the "Social Good" prompt just brainstorming ideas and speaking to a few friends about it. Patrick Stanley from Blockstack had actually sent me a Blockstack post about a list of applications that could be built on Blockstack and one of the first ones was a decentralized Local Bitcoins. As soon as I saw that, I knew it was what I had to do. I already have some experience building a P2P decentralized application on Blockstack, so I knew a simple MVP of Local Lightning would work out well and definitely has a real-world use case, which mattered a lot to me. I'm all about marketplace freedom, which unfortunately with Local Bitcoins and with many crypto projects implementing KYC, is needed more and more each day.

Option 1. Alice spends some of her channel balance with Lightning Chess and pushes funds over to them.
Option 2. Option 2 Lightning Chess opens a channel with Alice, with funds on Lightning Chess’s side.
