Re: Is Lightning Network Guaranteed to be released this year?
first trial payment using LN done so it will take a small time to released.
Are you sure because it took six years of testing BTC Core only to find it would not scale
and Lightning seem so complicated that no one can explain quite how it works so I tried myself

if this happens in 2018 price will break historical numbers
oh it will do that alright if what I am picking up so far about LN is true but if all you
want to see is "Faster speeds, Billions of transactions a second, low fees" then best ignore facts to-date
1. Three hour network delays
2. Just seven transactions a second (Billions
)3. BTC white-paper "Virtually free transaction fees"
Banks keep balances and charge fees but in crypto-gag-ga-land we call them Lightning Hubs because
we don't want to panic the sheeple
