January 2019 Lightning Network News roundup
Hello Coiners,
Happy February.
I wanted to post a roundup of all the noteworthy news this month related to lightning. It's hard to remember everything that happens over a month in this exciting space and the pace of lightning development in the ecosystem seems to be picking up.
I essentially did a quick scrape of Reddit and Twitter for the last 30 days of all LN news and picked out some goodies.
If you have any feedback on the format, sources, or if I should link to reddit threads for discussion instead of direct links to article (when possible) please let me know in the comments.
Also, if I missed any particularly awesome stories, please comment or DM me and I'll add it to the list for posterity.
If you guys enjoy this I will try to keep doing it every month.
Enjoy.

How I Lost My Home in An Earthquake And All My Life-savings on a Cryptocurrency Exchange Called Bittrex Due To U.S. Sanctioning Normal Iranian Citizens
TL;DR: I lost my house in an earthquake and also all my crypto on an exchange because U.S. government sanctioned normal Iranian citizens like me and now I'm homeless.
You can read the full story here on my blog:

For those who might say you shouldn't have held your Bitcoin on an American exchange: we couldn't buy hardware wallets back then because Iran was and still is sanctioned. Online wallets were mostly following U.S. laws too. We contacted Bittrex (evidence is posted in my blog post) a few times and they said they have no problem with Iranians using their exchange and they didn't have any lines prohibiting Iranians from using their exchange in their TOS. So Bittrex appeared to be the safest option for us since it was reputable back in 2017, but alas!
