Bitlight Labs Technical Update – February 21, 2026 We are pleased to announce significant updates to our RGB Lightning Network (RLN) infrastructure and the release of a new developer sandbox. 1. RLN Node & CLI Enhancements Repository: We have refactored payment logic to a resource-oriented architecture. Key updates include: - Expanded Payment Controls: Added specific subcommands for pay invoice, offer, refund, and keysend. - BOLT12 Support: Integrated BOLT12 capabilities along with wait and abandon payment states in the API and TypeScript SDK. - Documentation: Updated all examples and docs to reflect the new node topology. 2. New Developer Sandbox Repository: We have released a React + TypeScript web frontend for the Bitlight LN Hub to facilitate testing and development. Features include: - RPC Proxy: A backend implementation (in src/app/api) to securely proxy RPC calls and resolve cross-domain restrictions. - Dockerized Environment: Includes a pre-configured Bitcoin regtest container (bitcoind) with scripts for wallet creation and rln-ldk-node server initialization. Developers are encouraged to review the repositories and update their local environments accordingly. Make Bitcoin Smart
