I am not familiar enough with the latest advancements in this field. Is it = possible using LN/channel factories to achieve off-line-like participation = user experience without previous registration with any kind of gateway prov= ider? For example, can you go online, join the network [somehow instantly],= generate address/invoice and then put it somewhere for others to later use= it when you are off-line? Can you also participate while being off-line fo= r very long periods of time without relying on third party providers to sec= ure your channels? If not, is using sidechains really equally replaceable w= ith LN/CF constructions?
