What do you think guys , does this solve the fee and speed problem ?
Not until I can actually use it too.

Development is taking way too long. Meanwhile Bitcoin keeps losing market share, and many wallets (including Core) don't even allow easy creation of SegWit addresses. It seems like LN is at least a year away, while it was needed already 2 years ago.

I am totally agree that it takes way to long now, but for segwit use samurai wallet on Android, I have used it today and it works fast and cheap. Give it a try as normal fees are a joke.
