Great thanks for replying. I am not a technical person but I do my best to keep up. I am very interested in the development of additional scaling protocols besides lightning and seeing what is created in the coming years. I looking forward to learning more about hedgehog and hopefully getting to try it out some day. 

Kudos to you for doing the proof of work. 

So far there is no interaction and they are completely separate. I am working on a bridge to give them essentially full compatibility.

Does hedgehog interact with lightning or it is a completely separate protocol?
