Nostr Web Client

A lot of Bitcoiners only use Lightning a few times a year when they head to conferences. They pay for food, merchandise, etc. while at a Bitcoin conference and then don't use Lightning again until their next one. It's a sad truth. Lightning should NOT be a novelty. Nostr is the best damn use case for Lightning to date. This point needs to be sung from the mountain tops.

Anything under 1M sats should be using lightning imho. Especially in high fee environments, it doesn’t make sense to be making small Bitcoin transactions without at a minimum funding new channels.

I think LN was a night development, but I disagree with mass adoption... It's just not reliable. It must and it will get replaced by something better. Hopefully soon.

I disagree about the reliability issues, but I do agree that it’s a bit technical for most people and would struggle to scale to more than a few hundred million people in the current way it’s constructed.

ECash has a better chance at making it to 100% mass adoption (assuming that people don’t just prefer Bitcoin banks) but that would still use lightning as a gateway in most successful models.
