LAUNCHED: Block and Jerry's launch was successful! We sold few ice cream and had a great time! Check out our feature on Coindesk: https://www.coindesk.com/bitcoin-lightning-risky-maybe-ice-cream-will-tempt/
SHUT DOWN FOR NOW: Unfortunately delivery is hard and time consuming -- thus, for now we are not operating. If anyone is interested in continuing this, forking it and making it their own, or simply want some Bitcoin Lightning Network implementation advice, email Rob: [email protected]
Motivated by Starblocks, I wanted to offer the world a dessert to compliment their Testnet coffee. Using Lighting Lab's LND as my gateway to the Lightning Network, I built a React front end to generate invoices for ice cream on top of my LND node.
450 testnet cones later, it's time for the big leagues.

First of all, thanks for helping out! Block and Jerry's goal is to create a Hands on Bitcoin for the masses, introducing the average Joe to the incredible potential of the Lightning Network. This would not be possible without your help and support.
