Nothing definite, but do we see the many people in the community stop using onchain payments, and start using the Lightning Network?
From those I talk, yeah. They do use the lightning network.


How many of them have you talked to?

Have we seen exchanges start adopting Lightning, instead of listing more “faster” shitcoins?
post #1044.


What services/merchants do you Lightning for, and how much of Lightning was used for those services/merchants compared to onchain payments and shitcoins?


Is it just me who has never bought a single shitcoin? Not just for purchasing something. Generally, to just have it.


I’m merely asking a question. We see shitcoins accepted everywhere, especially online casinos that accept cryptocurrencies, but Lightning acceptance is low.

Lightning will realize its utility, but I believe it might not be for faster/cheaper payments.


It's much faster and cheaper than any other shitcoin. Transaction routing takes bunch of seconds. As for the cost of transaction, it's ridiculously cheap.


I never said it wasn’t currently cheap, or fast. Although, it’s debatable if it could be that way forever, but that’s for another topic. I’m merely saying that Lightning might find other “more important” use cases.
