PANews reported on October 17 that according to the Wall Street Journal, Goldman Sachs (GS.N) is stepping up its efforts to enter the hot market of data center and other infrastructure financing in an effort to capture a larger share of the artificial intelligence boom. People familiar with the matter revealed that Goldman Sachs is establishing a dedicated team within its global banking and markets division to focus on global infrastructure financing, which includes both increasing lending in this area and finding investors for this debt. This move is driven by a new wave of multi-billion dollar transactions involving artificial intelligence data centers, their huge energy needs, and the financing of processing units that support AI development. The new team will also focus on traditional infrastructure construction or upgrade projects in developed and emerging markets. In addition, the new team will be responsible for raising funds for renewable energy and certain types of liquefied natural gas projects, as well as providing financing for military and other equipment related to rising defense spending in various countries.PANews reported on October 17 that according to the Wall Street Journal, Goldman Sachs (GS.N) is stepping up its efforts to enter the hot market of data center and other infrastructure financing in an effort to capture a larger share of the artificial intelligence boom.

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…
