....What is "LN"? Are you referring to Lightening Network by Blockstream?

Heck, that is pretty much Vaporware. i.e.... an unproven marketing concept that isn't yet backed up by actual working code.

I for one wouldn't touch Lightening Network with a 10 foot pole. Its toxic. My guess is that the Blockstream Investors are feeling pretty stupid and pissed off right now. They probably had no idea they were backing incompetents.

And this brings up another interesting point that I think all the Blockstream Investors are probably wondering about. I know I would be.

I'd wonder how my monies were being spent. I mean... it seems to me that much of Blockstream time is spent playing social manipulation games, when they should have their noses buried in their Lightening Network codework.

Thats the real problem.... blockstream appears to have chosen a lazy development path of "Cripple Bitcoin and we win by default".... instead of doing hat everyone else does.... work hard to improve your own code,and try and win marketshare by honest means.

If it was my investment money, I would be looking at my agreement to see what sort of Audit of the books I could be entitled to, and if I had grounds for legal action to recover my investment.
