How do you as a Lighting Network developer propose that the citizens of El Salvador secure their Lighting Network Channels so they don't get drained of their funds? LN channels require each party to observe the channel for malicious transactions so they can forcefully close the channel if one occurs. Can the average user handle this or are intermediaries needed?
