PANews reported on November 6th, citing the Wall Street Journal, that OpenAI's CFO stated that OpenAI is not yet ready for an IPO. With a "very healthy" gross margin, OpenAI is on track to break even, and it hopes the federal government will support its data center investments. The market should have more confidence in the potential of artificial intelligence. OpenAI CFO Sarah Friar stated that the market is overly concerned and focused on a potential bubble in the artificial intelligence field, and should show more "enthusiasm" for the technology's potential. Friar said, "When I think about the actual impact of AI and its impact on individuals, I think people aren't enthusiastic enough about AI. We should keep working on it." To support the construction of its AI data centers, OpenAI entered into a series of major deals with Nvidia and AMD, which have been criticized as "circular financing arrangements," but Friar denied this circularity, stating, "What we're doing right now is building the complete infrastructure to get more computing into the world. I don't think it's circular at all. A lot of work last year was diversifying the supply chain."PANews reported on November 6th, citing the Wall Street Journal, that OpenAI's CFO stated that OpenAI is not yet ready for an IPO.

The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For

The post The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Visions of future technology are often prescient about the broad strokes while flubbing the details. The tablets in “2001: A Space Odyssey” do indeed look like iPads, but you never see the astronauts paying for subscriptions or wasting hours on Candy Crush.  Channel factories are one vision that arose early in the history of the Lightning Network to address some challenges that Lightning has faced from the beginning. Despite having grown to become Bitcoin’s most successful layer-2 scaling solution, with instant and low-fee payments, Lightning’s scale is limited by its reliance on payment channels. Although Lightning shifts most transactions off-chain, each payment channel still requires an on-chain transaction to open and (usually) another to close. As adoption grows, pressure on the blockchain grows with it. The need for a more scalable approach to managing channels is clear. Channel factories were supposed to meet this need, but where are they? In 2025, subnetworks are emerging that revive the impetus of channel factories with some new details that vastly increase their potential. They are natively interoperable with Lightning and achieve greater scale by allowing a group of participants to open a shared multisig UTXO and create multiple bilateral channels, which reduces the number of on-chain transactions and improves capital efficiency. Achieving greater scale by reducing complexity, Ark and Spark perform the same function as traditional channel factories with new designs and additional capabilities based on shared UTXOs.  Channel Factories 101 Channel factories have been around since the inception of Lightning. A factory is a multiparty contract where multiple users (not just two, as in a Dryja-Poon channel) cooperatively lock funds in a single multisig UTXO. They can open, close and update channels off-chain without updating the blockchain for each operation. Only when participants leave or the factory dissolves is an on-chain transaction…
