Due to security issues and a series of dilemmas, Bitcoin developers have withdrawn from the development of the Lightning Network

ChainCatcher news, according to Cointelegraph, Bitcoin security researcher and developer Antoine Riard has withdrawn from the development of the Lightning Network due to security issues and fundamental challenges facing the Bitcoin ecosystem. He believes the Bitcoin community is facing a "difficult dilemma," as a new type of alternative loop attack puts the Lightning Network in a "dangerous situation."

It is reported that the alternative loop attack is a new type of attack where attackers can exploit inconsistencies between various memory pools to steal funds from payment channel participants. He pointed out that addressing this new type of attack may require changes to the underlying Bitcoin network, "These types of changes require maximum transparency and consensus from the entire community, as we are altering the full node processing requirements or the security architecture of the decentralized Bitcoin ecosystem."
