Liquidity relay is actually a buffer for LN.
It's one of the new things discussed in Tokyo. A user can receive sats without having to open a channel, and there's a special account created for you that receives these sats, which then opens a channel for the user when the channel capacity is sufficient

You should listen to the entire audio. Lightning has changed and all the FUDsters are going to have a shit ton to moan about now. Cos users needn't open a channel to use the network anymore. Plus there's GOSSIP 2.0 && BOLT12.
So BULLISH
