Distributed, Parallel, and Cluster Computing 2018-08-14 v2 Cryptography and Security

Abstract

We propose a decentralized routing algorithm that can be implemented in Bitcoin Lightning Network. All nodes in the network contribute equally to path searching. The algorithm is inspired from ant path searching algorithms.
