Today on the BTC Sessions I explore the Éclair Bitcoin wallet by Acinq. This application allows you to utilize the lightning network, start a channel, run a node on your phone, as well as send/receive regular bitcoin transactions. This can help reduce network fees to fractions of a penny in some cases and allow for near instant confirmation of funds.

In this video I do NOT explore the initial setup, but it is nearly identical to many other regular Bitcoin wallets. If you would like a refresher on this, please check out some of my previous videos here:
