Rewrites the Splicing project page to match the newer project page structure and sharpen the copy. The updated page explains what Splicing is, why OpenSats funded the work, and what still needs to happen for broad Lightning adoption.

  • Adds clear overview, Why fund it?, and What's next? sections
  • Links the page to the original grant, Dusty's LTS announcement, and the lightning infrastructure impact report
  • Replaces the older first-person background section with project-focused context

Closes https://github.com/OpenSats/content/issues/17

Dusty's website still links to /projects/dusty so we might want to add a redirect /projects/dusty => /projects/splicing

Recent work has moved Splicing closer to broader deployment. In the [lightning infrastructure impact report](/blog/advancements-in-lightning-infrastructure#splicing), Dusty describes progress on a full implementation in Core Lightning, work on Splice Script for more expressive transaction flows, and parallel efforts to bring Splicing into LDK.
