Bitcoin was created to provide financial freedom - that's true! But do you disagree to the fact that it has it's disadvantages as well? It can't scale up to handle the volume of transactions required for global adoption. LN solved the problem to a certain extent but the reach of LN is still low and it's a sidechain. A lot of Bitcoin puritans may oppose my comments, but Bitcoin is a bad payment method if we compare to the traditional payment methods we have available in the market.

Bitcoin is a great investment asset which has outperformed every other investment asset in the market. But as a payment processor, we have better options available.
