I can't wait man. It's already functional for those willing to play around, just not in a noob friendly way. I have used it for testing purposes and it took me hours to set up a node.

It will change the way we conduct transactions and completely forget that we are still using Bitcoin. It doesn't feel like Bitcoin at all once you are transacting, because there are barely any limitations. Let the naysayers talk down on LN as much as they want, it doesn't change anything.
