How to track lightning network payment?
Assuming that there is a lightning network transaction between two people and they want to make evidence to be available to another person as witness, you can send the txid of bitcoin transaction to the third person which the person can use to trace the transaction on blockchain. But how about lightning network? Is there a way it can be tracked? I want to use lightning network because of the cheap transaction fee and fast transaction that it has, but I do not think it is possible for third person to trace it which will let me to use the normal transaction that can be tracked using txid.
Even lightning network transactions can be traced via hashes which are unique id for each payment but to track the hashes you need to provide payment channel information and hashes but it’s never been as simple as pasting txid on an explorer and seeing the inputs and outputs since LN txs are offline transactions.
