(Asked by: username_0 on 2019-05-10)

Blockstream's Liquid network can facilitate instant bitcoin transactions on their network. How does it work exactly?

My main questions are:

As a user with BTC on some exchange that supports Liquid Bitcoin (LBTC).

* Is Blockstream Liquid like an exchange for exchanges that only exchanges use?
* How is the 10 min blocktime eliminated?
* Can regular users be on the Liquid Network and with what wallet?
* What is their roadmap if any?
