Lea Salonga confirms separation from Robert Chien: ‘It’s not a secret’
MANILA, Philippines – Award-winning actress and singer Lea Salonga confirmed that she and her husband Robert Chien have long been separated.
“It’s not a secret. We’ve been separated for a while. And now he’s happy, and I’m happy that he’s happy,” Salonga said in an interview posted by MJ Marfori on Wednesday, January 22.
The topic came up when Salonga was asked about how she showed support for her son Nic’s transition. The Broadway star was quick to say that if “your love will stop” when your child comes out to you about their sexuality, “don’t have children.”
Nic is following in his mother’s footsteps as a theater actor, having made his debut in 2017 as Alice in Matilda the Musical. He later appeared alongside Salonga in the Philippine staging of Into the Woods.
Salonga said that although she and her son have busy schedules, her ex-husband and his partner are able to step in when Nic needs to be cared for when he’s sick.
Chien and Salonga tied the knot in Los Angeles in January 2004, nearly two years after they got engaged in July 2002.
In 2006, they welcomed their son, Nic, who is set to star as Moritz in The Sandbox Collective’s adaptation of Spring Awakening. – Rappler.com

The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For
The post The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Visions of future technology are often prescient about the broad strokes while flubbing the details. The tablets in “2001: A Space Odyssey” do indeed look like iPads, but you never see the astronauts paying for subscriptions or wasting hours on Candy Crush. Channel factories are one vision that arose early in the history of the Lightning Network to address some challenges that Lightning has faced from the beginning. Despite having grown to become Bitcoin’s most successful layer-2 scaling solution, with instant and low-fee payments, Lightning’s scale is limited by its reliance on payment channels. Although Lightning shifts most transactions off-chain, each payment channel still requires an on-chain transaction to open and (usually) another to close. As adoption grows, pressure on the blockchain grows with it. The need for a more scalable approach to managing channels is clear. Channel factories were supposed to meet this need, but where are they? In 2025, subnetworks are emerging that revive the impetus of channel factories with some new details that vastly increase their potential. They are natively interoperable with Lightning and achieve greater scale by allowing a group of participants to open a shared multisig UTXO and create multiple bilateral channels, which reduces the number of on-chain transactions and improves capital efficiency. Achieving greater scale by reducing complexity, Ark and Spark perform the same function as traditional channel factories with new designs and additional capabilities based on shared UTXOs. Channel Factories 101 Channel factories have been around since the inception of Lightning. A factory is a multiparty contract where multiple users (not just two, as in a Dryja-Poon channel) cooperatively lock funds in a single multisig UTXO. They can open, close and update channels off-chain without updating the blockchain for each operation. Only when participants leave or the factory dissolves is an on-chain transaction…
