PANews reported on September 1st that The Block, citing Variety, reported that Hollywood star Pete Davidson, widely known for his appearances on "Saturday Night Live," and Oscar winner Casey Affleck will star in a conspiracy thriller titled "Killing Satoshi." The film, inspired by the mysterious founder of Bitcoin, is scheduled for release in 2026. The film will reportedly be directed by Doug Liman, known for films like "The Bourne Supremacy" and "Mr. & Mrs. Smith," from a script written by longtime Clint Eastwood collaborator Nick Schenk. Davidson and Affleck's roles have yet to be announced, so it's unclear whether the two stars will portray known Satoshi Nakamoto associates like Hal Finney or Nick Szabo. According to the filmmakers, the film "blends political intrigue, high-tech espionage, and a race against time as global forces—including governments, Wall Street, and Silicon Valley—engage in an all-out war for control."PANews reported on September 1st that The Block, citing Variety, reported that Hollywood star Pete Davidson, widely known for his appearances on "Saturday Night Live," and Oscar winner Casey Affleck will star in a conspiracy thriller titled "Killing Satoshi."

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…
