Integrating LDK Node into the Lightning Gateway also exposed new challenges. Previously, for Lightning management operations such as opening and closing channels, we relied on the operator interacting directly with the underlying Lightning node. With LDK Node integrated into the gateway, the gateway operator no longer has another daemon to fall back to for channel or UTXO management; it must be done within the gateway itself. Most of the work we did was simply exposing Lightning operations and debugging logs to the gateway operator.

With ecash and Lightning management available in a single daemon, we are looking to explore automated methods of managing liquidity, such as the [LSPv1 spec](https://github.com/BitcoinAndLightningLayerSpecs/lsp/tree/main/LSPS1). We believe that ecash presents an opportunity to make liquidity management more efficient and are hoping to build this directly into the gateway itself.

The LDK Gateway will be available to use as a Lightning node in the v0.5 Fedimint release and will be able to service new federations starting with v0.6. We hope to see new node operators deploy `gatewayd` and take advantage of the integrated Lightning node for simpler deployment and liquidity management.
