Do I care? Not much as my infrequent txs can still be posted, but it (bitcoin) cannot be a medium of exchange for the planet.

Perplexed.
Last time I'd check, Bitcoin and Lightning was still being developed and improvements are being sort and worked through...
am I missing something?.... the narrative over the last a few pages make it seem like,
that is it! we are fucked! nothing can be done to solve buying a coffee!
