Bitcoin can't scale efficiently without solutions such as the Lightning Network.

The Lightning Network which is privately owned by Blockstream. They want you to believe Bitcoin can't scale without you having to buy access to their system.

But, I believe lots of solutions for scaling can be devised without any overlord owner.

Core programmers have a conflict of interest - they say things like: "Bitcoin can't scale efficiently..." Because convincing others of this allows them to burden the system with a limit that drives need for their solution.

Fuck that. And fuck those guys who were trusted to control the software while they got on Blockstreams payroll.
