Shared earlier this is the latest v2 version with more features. Looking goood!
The new version of ln-graph-viz just dropped, and I’m really excited to share it with you all.
My goal with this project has always been simple: make exploring the Lightning Network both useful and genuinely fun — a sweet spot where you’re learning a lot and actually enjoying the process.
We are trying to build one of the best open source visualizers out there, blending deep insights with a playful experience. What do you think? How would you rate it on the "useful + fun" scale? And more importantly, what's that one thing that would push it over the top?
🚀 What's New & What It Does:
-
Live Network View: See all active channels and nodes my node sees, updated daily. Get instant stats on nodes and channels: centrality, clusters, rankings, bridges and more.
-
Node Deep Dive: Click any node, and BAM! It highlights, showing all its channels while the rest of the graph chills out. Hover over nodes and edges to get quick info.
💡 How to Play With It:
-
Explore & Learn: Just zoom, pan, and mess around with the graph. You'll pick up so much about the LN's structure without even trying.
-
Smart Connections: Get a real feel for which nodes might be the best to connect to, just by looking at the map.
This version is a big step up from the earlier one I shared here:
Feedback wanted: LN Graph Viz – The Lightning Network Visualizer. Thanks for your feedback in the previous thread.
I’d love your feedback — but also your discoveries.
👉 If you notice interesting clusters, unusual bridges, or patterns worth discussing, share them in the comments! Let’s pool insights and make this tool even more useful (and fun) for everyone.
⚡️ Let’s keep exploring — together.
