For me, Charlie's Tweets can sometimes be confusing, and possibly even counter-productive. Take for instance the recent "Spread the hug and share the love ... " Tweets which created distance after the previous RSK Drivechain Tweet. Drivechain might seem to have been an important development and something for Litecoin in the future. Looking into Drivechain a little further, if Bitcoin implemented it, would there be a real need for Bitcoin to pair up with Litecoin - on Lightning Networks for instance? This was one of Charlie's main visions for Litecoin.
If full Lightning Networks implementation on Litecoin is far away i.e. 2018 and beyond, then I would have to reconsider my position. Bitcoin is looking healthy and currently flying high at $2,710.22 ... $3,000 looks like it's on the cards, ... imminently.
I was under the impression that LN was close. So far I have been one of Litecoin's most consistent supporters, here, on Twitter and on Poloniex. Reddit r/bitcoin too. I would like to hear of an estimate of when we could expect to see a full implementation of Lightning Networks on Litecoin. Again, is the answer to that weeks? ... months? ... a year? ... longer? ... or, indefinitely?
Charlie, over to you.
