However, I still believe LN should be perfected, but adoption and current use cases should be well established and deeply rooted in the economy.
While LN will help you pay with Bitcoin at a grocery store, current block speed is still good enough for paying for a hotel, for example.
So the current use as coin is not as bad as some want people think. The adoption can go on. Just too many use Bitcoin as a speculative investment vehicle and nothing more, and that hurts.
LN is still beta and it may still be beta for very long time. I was shocked when I first heard this, but unfortunately it's the truth, no matter if some started using it (on their own risk!) on main net.
