Here there is a cool experiment, using a Bitcoin bidirectional payment channel to do transactions off-chain and exchanging secrets and commitment transaction on Twitter.

Have a look at this thread: https://twitter.com/FedericoTenga/status/900541985790078976

Why have transactions off chain, when you can increase the blocksize and accommodate all transactions on chain? If it becomes too difficult to buy a cup of coffee, people might shift to Bitcoin cash or other alt coins.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^THIS^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

It's already too expensive too use the bitcoin platform to purchase a cup of coffee....Using bitcoin for any transaction under 100 bucks is ridiculous when we can use a VISA card instead. The fat bitcoin holders better be paying attention here ---> they keep throwing the majority of the network under the bus and they may regret it.
