PANews reported on November 21 that Raphaël Bloch, co-founder and editor-in-chief of The Big Whale, disclosed in an article on the X platform that Web3 fantasy sports platform Sorare will lay off 35% of its staff. An internal announcement confirmed the layoff plan, stating that approximately 35 out of 100 employees will leave, and that co-founder and CTO Adrien Montfort will step down from his operational role. Sorare CEO Nicolas Julia responded that he decided to "accelerate its path to profitability" and believes the restructuring will "simplify the company structure and shorten decision-making processes." He acknowledged that the move was "difficult to implement, but necessary." Sorare had previously initiated a major austerity program and migrated to the Solana platform, which could generate up to $10 million in revenue. Julia maintains that the company will return to growth by 2025 and achieve profitability "by the end of 2026."PANews reported on November 21 that Raphaël Bloch, co-founder and editor-in-chief of The Big Whale, disclosed in an article on the X platform that Web3 fantasy sports platform Sorare will lay off 35% of its staff.

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…
