Block/TBD launches c= Lightning liquidity service
Block's TBD unit introduced c= as a Lightning-focused service intended to make liquidity and routing more reliable for businesses. The launch was significant because it targeted a persistent operational problem in Lightning: a payment can fail even when sender and receiver are online if usable channel liquidity is not available along the route.
