 ## The ALBA Protocol
-A Proof-of-Concept implementation of the ALBA protocol, connecting the Lightning Network (LN, a layer-2 on top of Bitcoin) to Ethereum. It allows to verify on Ethereum (or on any other EVM-based chain) the state of a LN channel, either the current state of the channel or an upcoming update thereof.

 Costs are evaluated both in the optimistic (both parties are honest and cooperate) and in the pessimistic (one of the parties is adversarial) setting.
