I belive that its LN that its helping holding the 6k. Everyone is beliving that this will make an YUGE impact in bitcoin future. If this goes wrong it will be a massive dump!
LN is not the only scaling technology for Bitcoin, albeit it's the most advanced one - all other are concepts, whitepapers or early testnet alphas (e.g. Drivechain). But if LN "goes wrong" then that doesn't mean Bitcoin will be doomed. And LN has already advanced to the point where it can be used for small amounts - so the possibility for it to "go wrong" gets smaller and smaller.

I would like to have an eye on LN developement. Is there any site to look?
Simply look at the development repos and other sources:

https://github.com/ACINQ/eclair (Eclair)
https://github.com/lightningnetwork/lnd (LND/Neutrino)
https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning (C-Lightning)
https://blog.lightning.engineering/ (Blog of the LND developers)
https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/lightning-dev (Lightning Development Mailing List)

I need to retake my testing of Neutrino/LND. Wink
