I'll definitely look into that. For the most part my resources have been the LN whitepaper and a search engine for terms I don't understand. As I said, I'm just beginning to grasp the fundamentals, so "Mastering the Lightning Network" seems like a greatly helpful source of information, thank you very much for the suggestion!

I learnt more about the fundamentals of the LN today, and it just feels so good to start actually understanding the tech behind off-chain payment channels and how it actively discourages bad actors in the most logical way possible.

As someone who has extremely limited knowledge of most of the technical aspects of this awesome technology, just being able to wrap my head around concepts like this just reinforces my belief in the possibility of a Bitcoin standard some day.
