I look forward to Lightning Network if it works as we all hope it does. Hopefully it only requires soft forks to implement.
I'd love to run a lightning node and charge a few bit cents for running it to have a small income from my holdings.

solution to the dilemma of node centralization by incentivizing node operators.
